EdgeRacing to me = caca! lol.
Not to hate but they have a small selection.
As for Drag Wheels. This is def the way to go if your looking to save money and they how some really good knock offs. I'd go with Drag too. |

20% in the front
anything lower is considered illegal.
You can go 15% in the 2nd row windows and so forth.

Anyways, currently my car is stock but I am about to purchase and install a Progress Swaybar. Also residing over in Daytona Beach for school.

I kill myself all the time for getting a AT, even though I know and love MT. You see I learned on a Ford Mustang and drove that around for a year in Miami traffic. If you know anything about a Ford clutch, you know they get really hard over time. So not having much experience with other MT cars I decided if I am gonna be in all that traffic I would get a AT. Sad story. Hah.
Does not matter anyways, in 2 years time or so I plan on switching the engine to a K20Z1 and the resale on the engine with Automatic is higher I would assume. Right now though, I am about to place a order in for the Progress Rear Swaybar, and gonna finally get the windows tinted. What can I say, I am a poor college student. >_<
*edit*
Oh, and the more that I look at them...the more tempting a set of Mugen Visors would be to just accent the cars look. I don't want it to standout really, though...

That sucks man, what happened and how bad? I am curious how the FIT handles in an accident. I have a few near accident stories; one being on the highway that scared the crap out of me.

Dude, no need to worry. It all takes time. Theres no need to rush things on your car. I it sucks that you wanted MT and got AT and I really dont know what to tell you but hopefully your future plans work out for you as for doing what you want to do with the engine. I myself bought this car because 1) I wanted a MT car and 2) I wanted a gas saver.

I guess we all have had something wrong with our Fits. My cousins mom backed into my front bumper 2 weeks ago and at that time the car was only 3 weeks old. Can you believe that. I have to get the front bumper painted...at her expense.

Thats horrible. Crappy drivers....what can you say when you live in Miami with some really aggressive people.
Anyways in response to SickFit; I'm not so disappointed with the AT car but I miss the MT too much. Then again, I just got to take the Mustang out for a spin again and let me tell you it goes. So yea, I am not in any rush and I love the gas mileage on the car. That is why I opted for doing suspension improvements in the short run to improve the handling and fun factor for the car. Even if it is AT, in traffic I can give my friends Mustang a run for his money.

Darn that sucks dude. Atleast it wasnt your fault. What headers did you opt to get.
