Anyday of the week works for me 
I badly need some OEM CV boot banding, the stupid kit I picked up fell apart over the last few months and I have resorted back to using hose clamps to hold it on

Both; the driver side CV needs both a large and a small one
Headers are easy!!

Hey man, can your mechanic install the stabilizer bar? I need to do my brakes as well and headers

LOL I know it's easy, but I figured if I'm going to get all that other crap done, mind as well get it all done at the same time. So which Saturday is he free to do everything?

newb here.. wrote off my RSX and somehow ended up with a Fit... anything interesting happening out here?? read earlier some people go autoxing their Fit... how do these things handle?? i used to autox my RSX but driving a stock lx around i feel like it'll roll over... haha...
and for life of me after reading pages and pages of the wheel/tire size thread i can't figure out the proper offset for a 16x7 rim if i was to lower with T1R springs... i'm looking at 42mm can someone confirm if these will work?? thanx...

What is the timeline looking like to get the bars installed? I have a ton of other things to installed but they can wait, the bar and the CV are the main things I need help with.

Welcome Nitram,
I autoX'd my Fit last year, was fun and I plan to do it again this year. You wouldn't believe how hard you can throw these things into the corner and they stick like glue. What colour is your Fit?
I too had problems with +42 offset rims, I would suggest going with +45 offset if you can. 17's are a tight fit, if you drop it at all you need to beware what kind of tires you run, the best options are Falken and BF goodrich (from everything I have read). I opted to go with 195/40/17's on my +45 RTX wheels which is a rather uncommon size to address the problem.
