2Legit2Fit's pics and progress...

Hey everyone, finally got some pictures taken and first minor mods done.

Completely stock for now...



Made my first simple mod... Bought some new all season floor mats.



My second mod was hooking up my old speakers. Dual 12" RF P1 subs and a 1200W RF amp. It's definitely too much power for the car, but for now it sounds and it looks pretty awesome.



Sorry for the poor picture quality, the sun was super bright today.

Haha yeah it hits pretty hard... too hard in my opinion, but I didn't feel like buying a new box. I'm taking out one sub and re-installing everything so I'll post pics when that's done.


New England is a pretty dangerous area... we have bears. Nunchaku are one of the most most effective weapons when defending yourself from a bear attack.

dont get caught with those...unless you'd better have a good reason, like getting out of practice.

In CA, that's a felony having those in the car.

how did you find jdm badges for $7???? Link if there are more, please.

You can also openly carry (gun) in NH. That's one reason why I've considered living there after I graduate.

Emblems Red JDM Honda front&rear Decal Stickers badge: eBay Motors (item 260622577102 end time Jun-20-10 19:20:14 PDT)

I'm pretty sure those will Fit, maybe not as flush as the $100 JDM pair but I'd rather save some money... Haven't tried fitting them myself yet tho so we'll see what happens. For $7 shipped I had to give it a try.

Those subs could have added some weight for winter driving. Check out my mini-thumper shoe box... Mini-Sub Box Design

Finally got some photo updates. They are slightly out of focus though, I only had a few seconds to take each shot before I was SWARMED by mosquitos.



Pics of the interior coming soon...

Those wheels are sharp. How do they compare in weight to the stock sport wheels?

35 offset with a drop? wow, you must rub a lot.

maybe the 205/35 tire helps a bit, but i didn't think anyone made tires in that size.

My mistake, the correct size is 205/40/17. Edits have been made.

No rubbing at all.
