HKS Carbon Air Duct (for HKS oil cooler) for FL5 Honda Civic Type R

The HKS Carbon Air Duct is a premium dry-carbon optional add-on designed specifically to complement the FL5 Civic Type R HKS Oil Cooler Kit by replacing the standard resin-molded duct with a sharper, more refined motorsport finish. Clear coated for a deep, dimensional look and supplied with metal mesh, it adds a subtle carbon highlight at the front bumper that signals serious cooling hardware without changing the overall OEM character, making it an ideal finishing touch for owners chasing a higher-end front-end presentation.

Development Concept

• Upgrading the duct material from unpainted resin to dry carbon elevates the FL5’s front-end detail with a sharper, more sporting character and a higher sense of quality. The effect remains intentionally understated, adding a tasteful accent that complements the factory design rather than overpowering it. The finely executed shape highlights the presence of the HKS oil cooler kit, while the dry carbon’s three-dimensional texture – visible at the left side of the front bumper – subtly signals a serious approach to cooling. Finished with a discreet HKS logo, the refined carbon presentation delivers a premium feel and added pride of ownership. As a high-grade styling option, this component directly replaces the duct included with the oil cooler kit and comes clear coated with metal mesh already installed, making it ideal for FL5 owners seeking a more elevated exterior finish that balances premium appearance with true sports performance.
