The only thing this car had when we got it were those chrome wheels. Since then it's had Tanabe coilovers, 16x8 +20 XXR 521's with Kumho Ecsta 195/45 tires, 6000k HID kit, OEM front lip, and OEM side skirts. It's looking a little messy right now but on May 7th it's going in for paint! The whole car will be painted gun metallic from a 370z

Welcome to the forum and to the Fit Family! I also have a Milano Red GD3 which is a 2007 - hope mine doesn't fade like your girlfriends but if it does
it would definitely be painted too. Can't wait to see it when you get it done. Loving those rims!

Thanks! It's gone through a rough life with the previous owner. I figured i would bring it back to life and when it comes time to leave i'll get my money back for it. Good thing about being in Japan, paint jobs are cheap and definitely brings up the resale of cars.
