2unique Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 You mean the bodykits which Honda dealers sell by themselves instead of the Modulo kits which look 100% the same as Modulo kits? :)))) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavisH Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 That white one is carrying a RS badge? Or is it "Turbo" can't read it. Looks good in white...or black:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Guns Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Maybe the white one is going abroad, it has the twin exhaust that the Thai version doesn't have and different wheels. I'll be popping into the showroom to have a look at the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw them at the Honda Kalasin showroom this weekend...had to be there to pickup a car for coating. No RS badges and no central exhaust. Bridgestone tires instead of the better Yokohamas...no idea why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be popping into the showroom to have a look at the weekend. oops didn't notice that, definitely heading for overseas probably Australia, however the Thai ones are hitting showrooms from this morning. I took the plunge and booked one last week, available this Saturday but hit the showroom this morning. I'm in the queue for fitting (free extras) film - hi-cool, 2 point rear sensors, rain/wind guards, led scuff plates and exhaust tips. Other extras were carpets and cargo tray mat. Probably better extras available from tomorrow on the official available date but I only wanted the sensors, led scuff plates, window film and exhaust tips anyway. Probably will miss out on free insurance but hey I got a folding bike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeW Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Nice car! Now get some decent coating on it and protect that color for a long time :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DILLIGAD Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I can imagine it will need the rear parking sensors. From the photo's, it looks like a very restricted (rear) view?Hope your happy with your new car. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why though as she usually ignores them As JoeW says ... get it coated quickly. Wife's picks up her RS Friday morning ... proper polish and glass coating Saturday Will probably reverse into a tree on Sunday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace of Pop Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Don't put coating on it..It's just a waste .Read the Hanbook it's got clear coat Just wash it.Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect ACE ...my friend ... now this time you are somewhat ill advised. Bird droppings and whatever will eat into the clear coat. Polish, glass coating and others will help to prevent this and in addition 9H will a tiny bit resist chipping... OK off we go again. Well I'm off to look at the Hatchback, just curious 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaseTheBass Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I doubt they'd be dragging them all over Thailand if they're on their was to Aus. More likely Laos. Always a constant stream of transporters going over the border at Nong Khai. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The clear coat on a base coat/clear coat system is to make the paint shine. If you have ever seen this system being applied, the color coats are dull. First time you will swear something is wrong. There is no shine what so ever, until the clear goes on. . The glass/ceramic aftermarket coatings are a shine enhancer/protective coating for the existing base coat/clear coat.

JAS21 Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Looked at th HB today ...nice but the RS is more suitable for us. Much bigger boot plus it has built builtin gps and lanewatch. Anyway the EV has a flat bed if needs be. Rear view is more restricted. It looks like Honda saved all the Yoko's for the HB ...RS's are now coming on Bridgestones ...somewhat of a shame to say the least!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the fundamental difference between Yokohamas and Bridgestones? I do get some road noise from the Bs, but is that all? Thanks in advance.
