“I’ve been turning wrenches on Hondas since the peak of the JDM craze in 2000. What started with building Civic hatches evolved into a passion for preserving all Honda’s unconventional creations. When I bought my first Element in 2017, I immediately saw its cult potential – but where was the community?”
Birth of a Movement
Frustrated by the lack of dedicated resources, I launched the DIY Honda Element Owners Facebook group. What began as 50 garage tinkerers exploded to 8,000+ passionate owners in under 2 years. Three truths became clear:
- ⚡ Elements inspire unmatched owner loyalty
- 🔧 Enthusiasts wanted to self-maintain but lacked guidance
- ⚠️ Amazon’s parts marketplace was a minefield of cheap knockoffs
