cu2 mods

[nxn75u]

Yea i've just got a quote on the windscreen from honda and it cost $1600 before installaion... aftermarket ones are $750 installed. Any ideas which ones i should go for? would it affect resale value if i were to use the aftermarket ones. For a note: aftermarket ones already came with rain sensor as well for luxury models.

I have had mine replaced twice by Windscreens Obrien & am now in need of another. I wouldn't go genuine with a windscreen unless I had no choice. If you have a luxury with rain sensing wipers it could be a different story, but check with Windscreens Obrien first.

Let me re-phrase that. If you change the Air Induction System on a car the manufacturer can at his discretion void future warranty claims on the Engine. I have seen it happen often.

oh
what if i change the exhaust (not cat back) same scenario? ill probably just go for the knfilter instead of cai

As a general rule exhaust modifications are not viewed with the same scrutiny as induction modifications, but again it is dealer discretion. You can't do Headers on a CU2 anyway, your limited to cat back & possibly a high flow cat. Once again i personally can't see worthwhile gains in this area alone as it already has a fairly free flowing exhaust.

Note that Dealers still can blame the K&N filter if you claim any problem with the engine. Basically, if its not OEM, they have the rights to do this (but I think they need to somehow prove it).

You need to be carefull with aftermarket windscreens if you have a lux.as a few guys here with CL9s had problems with the auto sensing module working on them.

Yea that's what I'm worried as well.. Does anyone had problems with aftermarket windscreen? Coz the price difference is huge, that's y I'm confused.
