Will be lowering the car later this afternoon at Garage 5.
Hope the ride will still be comfortable with Tanabe DF210 springs.
Will post photos when done.

your button is upside down, the light "beam" is supposed to point downward like the actual lights do

Hey, I didn't really noticed it. Thanks, BakedCookies for the heads-up!
Will re-install the switch with the light beam pointing downwards.

Installed the hood deflector today, I'm sure it will be a fine shade of green by the end of the day, damn pollen!
Just a quick pic, the Fit looks kinda weird with the wood beams overhead.

Finally.....Lowered w/ Tanabe DF210

Monday afternoon, Garage 5 lowered our car with Tanabe DF210.
Am quite pleased with the results and the ride although stiffer than OEM, is still quite comfortable. Smooth on paved roads, but you will get better feel of the road. Great cornering and steering response.

I got the keys to my new apartment, which has a private garage. That means I can finally do as I wish with my car. First up, install JDM tails. Then install black vinyl roof. Theeeeeen, I'll smoke my headlights.

3m protection film on fogs

I've had bad luck in the past with my fogs getting busted (Acura CL-S) and due to the lower location of our fogs I decided to place some 3m film on my fogs.
Just took a quick trace of the fog lens and cut my 3m bulk film. Then voila!!!!

virtually invisible and now extra protected.
Install time 10 minutes for both.

is that a LED in your fog? Just for looks, or does it throw out enough light to be useful?

yea its a led h11 bulb. I think it puts out just as much light as the standard bulb. Maybe even a little more since its a brighter color (cool white)
