What did you do to the GD Fit today?

...come to think about it, with the money I've spent on my car plus mods, I could have bought one too... oh well.

Yeah, that's a nice price for something like that! Right hand drive and everything. I saw one here in Vegas too, it wasn't really that well kept (messed up paint, different colored body panels, etc.) but I'm guessing it was a future project car.

I picked up some solid GSR blades for my fit. First set of rims for this car. Bought the car in 2007. Took this long to get rims. Need to get tires for the rims. Rims came with bald tires. $180 for the rims. Can't get tires today. Will be doing that tomorrow then slapping them on the fit. The rims are painted black and 2 wheel caps were painted black. Going to replace all 4 wheel caps so they look mint and will be stripping the paint and polishing them real soon.

I am always a fan of white rims personally. But with my blades I want polished. I am also a fan of OEM and always loved the prelude and GSR blades since I was 16.
They were posted yesterday, 20 mins later I bought em. Got home, 30 posts on the Facebook wall. So lucky I moved on em. Two previous sales fell through. One was $230, next was $250, third time I got em for $180. Worked out for me. Minus I need to strip the black paint awful job and need 4 new centre caps. But eh I'm not complaining.
Here is a photo of them. Not a fan of the black. I want the OEM polished look. That I will do in November once the paint chips away and I change the rims for winter. I'll work on them all winter. Haha. Or I may just take one off at a time on a rainy day. Pics on car will come soon. Tomorrow I'm getting tires so hopefully they go on the rims as well. Will hit the lake for a photo shoot when they go on haha.

Hmm. The black looks good on a silver fit. I myself roll in I silver as well. I may keep them black. Mind you they were not painted by me and I feel they will need to be repainted as they have already flaked lol. I might just keep them black for the time being. I feel like a little kid on Christmas.

My vx wheels are in the process of being redone. I just got them and the paint is quite bad. I'm taking them down to the bare aluminum and repainting black. I've noticed that they were also white, red, green, black and silver underneath the grey. But 13" wheels IMO look best in dark colors to somewhat mask the small diameter. Mine will be either shiny or matte black.
The GSR Blades do have an excellent oem shine that's for sure. One of my fav oem wheels!

Yup, took lots of brake mod to get it to work. I have hx wheels too but wanted to give the lighter wheels a try. I'm going to run 25 mm spacers for more clearance because there's only about 1 mm of clearance with the caliper the way it is now.

With the 13" tire I would imagine your tire selection would be limited. Why not just go with a light weight 15"? Are you racing the vehicle?
