The Monroe A.S. that me and Tex have would not be suitable for lo riders. What would you say here T.C. My rear sits up alittle higher than (stocker springs) B4 the A.S. were installed. Just something to think about.

Now Felix has the bags on his, and his Fit is a kuckle dragger.

I didn't do anything to my GD3 but a nice lady next to me did. She slammed her CRV into my driver side, changing lanes without looking. Thanks Palos Verdes, you guys keep it up with the superb drivers.

I believe that Mahout was the source of information about which shocks would work, also whoever it was that first installed air shock on there GE model had to figure out which shock to use..... Measure the extended and compressed length of the shock and call Strut Masters and tell them how much shorter you need... I could use shorter shocks with my Swift Mach springs, They both will drop out when the rear of the car is raised off the ground high enough to have both wheels off of the ground..... It sucks because I need to have a B pipe welded up at the muffler shop soon.

Be careful with that foam filter... in a NA car it's ok, but one of my friends had a similar filter on a boosted engine and it sucked it in!

Hi,

I installed Zeta's brushed stainless steel dash kit. I haven't taken pictures yet as I haven't put in the big stereo surround piece. So far I like it and it went in pretty easy. The joint for the door handl surround want to keep unsticking though. I think it I reprime that area again it should stay stuck.

If anyone has any other ideas to get it to stay on that curve let me know.

Other than tinted windows, a " Fit" bug deflector, and JDM red emblems that's all the mods I've done so far. In the future I think I will put on black rims with a stainless or chrome lip.

Chris

after a total of 5 trips to Tires Plus I finally have all my rims finished and on the car. It feels really good when you get to see your new wheels on your car, it feels even better when you look at those wheels and know you basically hand built them.
