Hi everyone I’m David. My IG is @dluna28, I’m coming from a 2014 civic si 9th gen civic platform. I currently have a 2016 ilx that is my daily as well as my tsx that will be my dedicated track car/weekend canyon car. Ok now more about my tsx. I bought it with 119k 6 speed with no mods I was very happy to find such a stock version of the car. Back story on the car is that his wife would drive it and they have too many cars now (looked true) it was purchased from his brother so I am the third owner 😮😊. Here is a picture of my daily, as well as my tsx when I bought it and now I will try to keep the mods I’ve done so far in chronological order and use this to keep track of the mods done too my car.

Hey bro, do you happen to have a link to the mesh grill or the seller's name on eBay? also was it hard to mount the emblem on the grille what was the process like
I honestly don’t have a link it was the first thing I purchased for the car a couple years ago. it’s a very generic grill on eBay around 100 usd I
Just made sure it had the cutout for the hood latch and is for the us bumper it should mention it in the description. I actually removed my oem emblem and grabbed a random aluminum I cut. And used some random screws that weren’t too big.

Small update
So I finished up the front rigid collar from spoon and also bought a straight pipe from a local tsx guy it came with a ktuned muffler after cleaning it up adding new gaskets from vibrant, new hardware and Polyurethane exhaust hangers it sounds loud to say the least was also able to put the plm header on in the process but I had to remove the secondary 02 sensor. as much as I’m not a fan of how loud it is, it shaved significant weight especially since it is a single exit. It rattles a bit on the Cusco brace I have so I might need to get rid of it. For now it has a small patch of sound dampening.

Very small update, Purchased a harness from dongar technology’s that I thought was cool it creates a usb from the auto dim mirror for a dashcam. So far I’m using it for the GoPro also comes with some shorter cables in the box. so far I think it’s a great addition although I don’t use auto dim feature. Its made me want to purchase a rear view mirror dash cam
In the future, it would be a nice touch and really clear up the area making the harness and everything look cleaner unfortunately the setup I have now looks ugly but blocked by the broadway 12 in mirror. I purchased this double wide one to hide the auto dim mirror when I first purchased the car it unfortunately moves a lot on bumps due to the weight so it’s more annoying than convenient. making me want the dash cam rear view mirror even more. I’ve been looking at ones that completely replace the mirror.
