APR Performance’s Newest Innovations for the Honda Civic Type-R FL5
APR Performance has unveiled their latest aero additions for the Honda Civic Type-R FL5, further pushing the boundaries of automotive design and efficiency. The new products include a Carbon Fiber Rear Diffuser and additional Carbon Fiber Rear Bumper Skirts, both designed to improve the car’s performance and aesthetics through superior engineering and high-quality materials.
Honda Civic FL5 Carbon Fiber Rear Diffuser
A True Track Car Finish While Actually Enhancing Stability and Performance.
The newly released APR Performance Carbon Fiber Rear Diffuser for the Honda Civic Type-R FL5 is a testament to the brand’s commitment to enhancing vehicle aerodynamics. Diffusers are crucial for producing downforce, which is vital for high-speed stability and cornering. As a car moves, it displaces air and creates a vacuum of low-pressure air at the rear. The APR diffuser tackles this by channeling the high-speed airflow from beneath the car to smoothly transition into the rear vacuum. This not only reduces turbulence but also maximizes the effectiveness of other aerodynamic components, such as wings. By smoothing out the airflow under the car, the diffuser helps to decrease drag and improve overall handling and speed.

Carbon Fiber Rear Bumper Skirts
Added Downforce for Precision Handling at High Speeds.
Alongside the diffuser, APR Performance has also introduced Carbon Fiber Rear Bumper Skirts specifically tailored for the Honda Civic Type-R FL5. These skirts are instrumental in aerodynamically tuning the vehicle’s handling. Constructed from lightweight yet durable carbon fiber composites, the skirts work by preventing air from rolling underneath the car from the sides. This action effectively reduces lift during high-speed maneuvers, thereby stabilizing the car during sharp turns and increasing traction. The result is faster lap times and a more responsive driving experience.
