^ Thanks Travis, I've lower my car last week and I still have to install the wiper and Hazard switch. Rear seats come out tonight and I'm talking to my friend about painting my Car, but thats a few months away. I'll try to take some pics of my car this weekend while at SC4.

Hey! We live in the same area I have a Nikon too, 5100

Got a few questions if you don't mind:

I like the wheels, where did you pick them up at? They look to be 16s.
And I like the sport wing, did you buy that from a vendor or found it?

Seems like a lot of your mods are things I have on my wishlist. Tint's coming this weekend. Taking it down to Xtreme Tints.

Sweet, I'm using a D3100. I got the rims from Best Wheels and they're 15s. My friend and I swap hatches so I could have a wing and he could go wingless.

We should meet up sometime

So its been a reaaaaallllllyyyy long time since I've been on here, so I will update you guys on what's been going on with my FIT.

First the Bad...One night coming home from sonic's I was going over an overpass when my car jerked to the left I think I may of hit some type of oil patch it happen so fast. After the car hit the wall I pulled off into a parking lot. I left the car there over night and a friend took me back the next day to take a look at the damage in better light.

Later that day it was tow to the body shop, then I got the call saying it was fixable so I when down to take some more pictures.

I was really shock that my airbag didn't go off, but happy it didn't. I did the best I could do from spinning out since it was a single lane overpass I didn't want to be a ping pong ball, the the front left of the car took all the damage.

The day I got her back, a lot of people were telling me to sale it and get a new one, I was thinking about it until I drove the car. It was like it never happen. Here's a pic the day I got her back.

So I haven't done anything new since last year, been far to broke to do anything, finally getting back on my feet and starting looking for parts. I plan on re-doing the headliner this weekend at some point. I'll post more soon.
