SEMA 2015 - Fox Marketing 2016 Honda HR-V First Look

With only two-weeks to complete this build, creating daily driven street car was the focus. These modifications anyone can achieve quickly and very affordable. We choose the LX model because of its lighter chassis and additional 2” of headroom over the EX model. The vehicle owner is 6’8” and fits comfortable inside with plenty of knee/head room. The Platinum Certified Honda Technicians at Mugsy’s Repair in York, PA. upgraded the engine first with a K&N Intake system, and cat-back Magnaflow exhaust system adding an additional +15wph. We also saw an addition of +2MPG after these simple engine modifications. Next, we addressed the outside of the vehicle by painting all the ABS plastic body kit with BASF R-M Browns Anthracite Paint and roof by Browns Auto Body Werkz, Mechanicsburg, PA. We added a direct fit replacement LED Fog Light Casing to the front fascia for added safety on the road. The interior was completely upgraded from the factory cloth to Katzkin Leather with Deeheated and cooled for those cold North East winter months. Additional in the summer the 3M Cystalline 40 Window Tint blocks 97% of infrared heat from the vehicle. Furthermore, Schroth Racing Rallye Cross ASM 4-point street legal belts were added for those autocross events, and then snap out in seconds to store in the truck. Handling of the vehicle was next, the BC Suspension Coilovers are surprising comfortable with a 4.5” drop on 18x8 Konig Oversteer wheels wrapped with Toyo T1 Sport Tires. Behind the wheel and tire package is a massive yet innovative 13.3” WP Pro Brake Sawblade Rotor with a 6-piston caliper stopping the vehicle in its tracks.

Wheel spec? It's the konig overseer right? What coilovers are you using? Sad to see what happened. Planning to get an inspiration from your build!

[rossconglomerate]

What I wonder how much total was the parts and labor I might want to buy an hrv and do same thing

[massimospizzirri]

i own a 2016 honda hr-v with AWD i feel the car lacks so much potential it looks so slick wish it came with a turbo

[Bringbackcicispizza]

The white orchid pearl is under a recall cause it chips

[aljxdro]

I recently got a 2018 LX, Sadly it's automatic but I'd love to do this solely for looks 😅 Looks awesome!

[klasseact]

Are those the 18 x 8 +45mm offset Konig Oversteers?

[jasonn]

This car in black or gunmetal would look sensational.

[parkermesch]

Just bought a 2016 HR-V in Orchid pearl white like yours. I want to make mine simmilar. Did you nite shade the tail lights?

[EastCoastMafia_NY]

Do you guys have a link for the custom cold air intake ? I have a 2017 fwd 6 speed.

[felsonrovillos]

Did you guys have to pull the fender so the tire won’t rub with wheel spec you have?

[TheChensoccer]

The harness is secured improperly in the rear. How does he even pass tech inspection for track day?

[lalchanchris]

Where did you get the brake upgrade kit?

[orlandooropeza]

[frankieboie]

"We choose the LX model because of its lighter chassis" Because its the fwd model right?

[nelc]

[massimospizzirri]
