I really like that pal!

Thanks a lot mate, yeah I was over the moon to pick one up with such low mileage! I am heavily into my detailing so I will b able to get the car to a clean condition but with this being my first black car I am realising what a pain they can be to keep that way lol.

Thanks a lot mate! Cheers dude, yeah the bay is in decent nick, bit of elbow grease, and few hours will see it in good shape!

Hello everyone! I thought it was about time that I created a progress thread for my Civic Type R after owning it for over 3 weeks now. A little bit about me, I come from owning a string of French hot hatches the last being a mint Clio 172 Cup and before that a Saxo VTS. However I am no stranger...

God work mate, I do love a clean Milano.

Nice Cosmic mate, loving the premier Recaro's!

I'm really not to sure where you would be able to pick some up from to be honest dude, all of the stockists I know are internet based. :confused: Are there any local detailing firms to you?

As Dazza said dude try a cent tar/glue remover such as Tardis, or auto finesse glue/tar remover. Spray it on and then leave it to dwell for a few mins, then use a micro fibre to wipe over the area and if necessary repeat the process. If there is any 'marring' left in the paint this should...

Spending some money on some decent tyres should be one of the first things to consider buying in my opinion (it certainly is for me as I have only had my Type R for 10 days or so). You cant go wrong with Eagle F1as', bridgestone RE050's, conti contact sport 5's etc and they are all good for...

I agree with Jimbo to be honest dude, and have learnt in the past that you get what you pay for...literally. If its a case of waiting to save a little longer to get something quality than so be it.

No problem dude, you can't go wrong with either the Eibach Pro kit or Sportline/ABP kit it just depends on the drop you are looking for really.

It says that that Cosmic had the ABP Eibach's fitted which IIRC lowers roughly 30mm. There should be loads of threads regarding ABP Eibach springs ;)

Yeah its normal dude, My brother has had 2 EP3's which made the same 'noise' in reverse and my EP3 makes the same 'noise' too, its the norm I think.

Love the DC5 dude looks like a nice tidy example! These are really growing on me.

I love you S2000 mate and the progress you have made with it! It is a car that is on my 'must own list'! Whats your plans for the future with it?
