Customer Feedback

Waited a year for this FL5, so full-body PPF was non-negotiable. After three Sai Kung hill runs and track days, the front bumper is still chip-free and water beads right off — worth every dollar.

Workshop Notes

Build Story

The ultimate defense for the passionate Japanese hot hatch king: A Brand New Honda Civic Type R FL5 wrapped with GSWF Defender Hydro premium high-gloss paint protection film. The passionate Japanese hot hatch king, the Honda Civic Type R FL5, has arrived and is now at LGWR, a high-end automotive film specialist, for comprehensive invisible paint protection. This performance vehicle, with its classic Championship White factory paint, aggressive aero kit, large rear wing, and red Honda emblem, is an icon for all Japanese performance enthusiasts. The owner wanted to provide top-tier protection for the new car immediately upon delivery, preserving the precious factory paint and the ultimate driving experience. Since its establishment in May 2021, LGWR has focused on high-end automotive film services, aiming to create a one-stop solution for automotive exterior customization. We offer comprehensive vehicle body protection solutions for new cars, including Paint Protection Film, Color Paint Protection Film, aftermarket body kits, ceramic coating and interior/exterior detailing services, paint correction, dash cam installation, and one-on-one consultation services. This project features GSWF Defender Hydro PPF, known for its powerful double hydrophobic self-cleaning technology and ultra-high gloss enhancement. It perfectly resists road debris, gravel splashes, and daily scratches, while significantly boosting the transparency and mirror-like gloss of the original Championship White paint. LGWR's automotive film services range from HK$19,800 to HK$26,800, depending on the product and service requirements. Through LGWR's professional application, this invisible film solution provides the Civic Type R FL5 with a dual enhancement of aesthetic performance and ultimate defense: the Defender Hydro PPF's double hydrophobic surface makes it difficult for rain and dirt to adhere, making daily cleaning effortless; the high-gloss film ensures the factory white paint maintains a mirror-like reflection, just like new; and it locks in the optimal condition for every panel of this performance vehicle. The team employs a core 'manual micro-folding edge-wrapping technique' across the entire vehicle, precisely folding and tucking every film edge into the deepest parts of panel gaps, large aerodynamic spoilers, and Type R-exclusive carbon fiber exterior components, perfectly safeguarding the precious factory paint and robustly defending the ultimate passion and perfect appearance of this performance vehicle. This extreme pursuit of craftsmanship and detail stems from founder Tim's artisan passion. In university, Tim majored in fashion and textiles; however, he had a lifelong passion for cars and a deep interest in craftsmanship. These passions led him to decisively leave his full-time job and travel to Canada to dedicatedly study automotive detailing techniques and related crafts. As the exclusive Experience Store for the renowned German automotive detailing brand KOCH CHEMIE, KOCH CHEMIE boasts over 80 years of history, known for its outstanding quality and innovative technology. After the complete vehicle film application is successfully finished, we use their professional series products for comprehensive vehicle body care. LGWR's ceramic coating and interior/exterior detailing services range from HK$1,000 to HK$6,000, depending on the selected items and vehicle type; car wash services range from HK$170 to HK$2,300, ensuring this passionate Civic Type R FL5 always remains in peak performance condition.
