Splash shield replacement?

Hello! My splashguard underneath the car needs replaced. It’s zip tied and has some sort of metal plate on it to keep it steady. It rattles at 35mph+ so I’d like to order a new one. It looks like it comes in two pieces so i’d need the front part. Just wanted to see if anyone had replaced this before as I can’t find where to get one.

Thanks!

car is rattling/squealing?

2013 Honda Civic EX. Car’s been fine all day drove 70+ miles no problem..almost home and noticed a rattle start to occur at 35MPH and above. Second clip the car is off and sounds like it’s “squealing?” A bit, like something is leaking possibly but everything seems okay. Brakes were done less than 5k miles ago and it’s been in the shop to lookover the frontend maybe 2 months ago and they said everything was fine. Help?

Ignition coil failure?

Hello, i’m hoping to get some quick input on wtf just happened to me. Did a little pull for my buddy, i dumped the clutch at about 4k to do a little burnout and the car immediately bogged down and threw CEL and EPC light. Car was misfiring, popped the hood and the engine cover was halfway off the motor, and the ignition coil wiring harness was loose around cylinder 3-4.
OBD said cylinder 4 misfire + random cylinder misfire, i popped coils 3 and 4 out, they look fine + the plugs.
I reconnected the wiring harness, cleared the code and car drove normally all the way home. Oil looks fine, no noticeable fluids anywhere, car did reach around 217° initially and was at 220° once i was home (hottest it’s ever been)
The car drives normally now, but what could’ve caused this? Is my motor on its way out?

Remove rusted nut from bolt?

I bought this diffuser for my car and it’s an extension bolted onto the OEM rear diffuser.

The nuts are rusted onto the bolts and I cannot get them off, I’ve tried with a friend to remove and I’ve soaked them in penetrating oil but they’re still seized onto the bolts and spin freely with it.

What should I do?

Painted diffuser/sideskirts?

Hello all,
I’ve been kicking around the idea of paint matching my OEM diffuser and side skirts/rocker panel covers.
I was wondering if anyone has done it themselves or purchased ones online that were already paint matched.
There are definitely a few places in my area that could do it, though I just haven’t inquired about it yet.
Thanks!

Who should I go through for tuning?

Hello!
Pretty soon me and some Co-workers will be tearing down my Mk6 to do everything it needs, Timing, Water Pump, Engine Mounts, etc.
Once I get everything squared away I’d like to go ahead and tune it and I was wondering who was better to go through?
I still plan on doing the supporting mods (DP, Intercooler, DV+) I was thinking about Unitronic, and then IE caught my attention. I’ve also heard that IE is pretty “harsh” on the Ea888’s as a whole so I was hoping for some feedback.
Also, if any manual guys have any upgraded clutch/lighter flywheel suggestions, please throw them my way.
Thanks!
