So who HASN'T finished their GD 01-08 mods yet?
So who out there is still in the process of modding their Fit? I know alot of folks here have many miles logged on various brands of springs, intakes, wheels etc. but is there anyone who is still at the beginning or has a bit to go? I just got started my self afte being set back by some body damage and having to get my old car (1996 Geo Prizm) legal to keep it from being towed away. I wasn't gonna let the city have my favorite beater :D Anyway, here's a list of my still waiting mods and estimated cost.
Accessories: Keyless entry OEM ($108) OEM foglights ($250) Exterior: Window tint ($200) Gram Light 57Maximum White Painted wheels ($936) Tires for above wheels ($400 ish?) Mugen wind visors ($149) Performance: Intake (brand undecided since waiting until warranty is up, $200 ish) Exhaust (same as above, possibly Spoon N1 or Tanabe medalion $400 ish) Suspension: Spoon strut tower bar ($176) C-Pillar Bar ($152) Altogether I estimate this to all come to about $2800, and that's not talking if I replace the headers along with the muffler or toss on the Seibon CF hood I'm looking at. Worth mentioning that the T1R B-Max Carbon intake is damn sexy too. But so far I've only done one thing, that was a CF wing (I bought a base). The suspension def. needs to be changed, but I'm still learning about all handling and suspension so I'm undecided on anything there. I would like to redo the interior but that's with all OEM stuff (blue auto shifter, door/window button covers etc). Thankfully, the stock audio is sufficient for me, although I would like to like to reupholster the interior so that the gray door and seat accents are blue to match the guages and blue shifter/door trim. I've had my Fit about 6 months now, so slowly but surely it's coming along. Maybe in a year or so when I have the money to afford it, Kraftwerks will find their way under my hood to help me move along :) :) Maybe I can get lucky and find most of the good stuff used on the forums for cheap. How about you? |
My car will never be done. I change stuff so often its like I have a mental disease.
I probably do. ;) |
You don't have to wait for the warranty to be up to install an intake. The Autozone piece-together kit is the easiest and cheapest by far.
|
i still have a header and strut bar to install. maybe someday a cat-delete. besides that i'm probably done.
|
i have transmission work to do, re upholster my back seats and put on a few exterior pieces. but i dont think my car will ever be done.
|
I have only had my Fit for 1 year in October, so I'm just getting started. Over all im pretty happy with what I have gotten done over the summer but this winter I will be collecting parts for next summer. I already want to replace my Progress lowering springs with the Skunk2 coilovers and ill probable have a rim change for next summer.
|
Still looking to do the following:
In Dash Nav Door Molding JDM Window Visor JDM Roof Console JDM Map Light JDM Center Console (awaiting delivery) I don't want to do any performance stuff as I don't know crap about it. Plus I would onyl do it if it increase fuel efficiency. I don't need this to go fast, I had a fast car and this will never be like that. But I've only had my Fit since lat May. |
3 months until my wheels arrive :)
|
how far along am i with my Fit? on a scale from 1-10. i'm probably just breaking 4
i have a few more suspension parts that i want and a decent set of wheels + tires before i'm happy with my Fit's handling department. i'm not even going to get into anything else before that's done :) |
on a 1-10 I'm about 3.5
Gotta do: upper/lower suspension bars front/rear + c-pillar coilovers pioneer F900 catback exhaust bodywork random JDM trinkets |
never ending list
|
KWSC is gonna be my focus after tint & T1R vip muffler
|
lol im just getting started,ive only had mine since end of may so.
|
I have a lot of posible mods to do but I think there is only a few things left that I am realy considering; lowering it and getting a new front bumper.
And I may change the front speakers and move the old to the rear doors some time in the future (and at the same time sound dampening the doors). I have not done anything to the engine or anything else under the hood other than painting the manifoil cover. Not sure if a new air intake / filter actually would do anything, and a new exhaust system is too expensive versus what I get out of it other than more noise (I want to get less noise, not more). I hope I never wreck this thing because it would be hard to get hold on a car that looks like this again... |
i just started, got my car in august. I ridden the car for like 2 weeks and the rest it's beein in the shop
|
Still want some HFP wheels and slim visors. Then I'll be done.
|
What I've done:
5000K HID's, yellow fog bulbs, red "H" badge, black calipers, Progress springs, Buddy Club rims, debadge rear, rear bumper applique, Spoon antenna... Future plans: Amber sidemarkers, blackout headlights, Spoon duckbill spoiler, Tokico D-Specs, C-pillar bar, sway bars, SRI, APEXi WS II... I'm probably missing a few things, all in all I'd say I'm about 40-50% done... I'm going for "mild" not "wild" ;) |
my car will get finished when my daughter moves out and goes to college... she 8 months old ... lol
|
Ive barley started all I have doen is blacked out the foglight housings and installed some amber PIAAs. Next on my list is a set of sunk2 coilovers. oooooooooohhhhhhhh, I really want them!!!
|
i just need my side skirts and new coilovers to replace my t1rs. I don't want to put anymore money in the car. maybe the occasional mod would be different rims.
