Hey guys, so I have $700 approved by the wife to upgrade my 2010 Blue Fit and need your advice what to get next? Looking at anything that'll make my car feel faster, be more efficient, or make it look nicer... Throw in you suggestions please with specific models numbers if possible..

What I currently have:
Light rims
Summer tires
LED headlights
Short ram intake

What I was thinking:
Cat back exhaust
MUGEN grille
Apex tail lights
SWIFT springs

 

How about adding bluetooth? It'll cost about $200. Pocket the $500 leftover for a TJ trip!

 

suspension and sway bar.

 

Swift springs & Koni orange. Nothing makes more of a difference than a proper ride height visually.

 

If it were me, I'd probably go a completely different route and get some Clazzio seat covers and (particularly if you don't have the sport model) a WheelSkins steering wheel cover. I figure I spend a lot more time seeing and feeling the interior of my car when I'm driving than I do the outside, and I'd like it to be nice and pleasant and comfy.

Of course, it's your car and your decision.

 

I would say to look into swift springs, also i really loved having a bluetooth head unit. I just feel like the interior looks so much cleaner not needing an aux chord or anything.

 

Suspension! I say get coil overs or you could do swift springs and exhaust

 

You guys are such rookies!

Spend the $700 on something for your wife (surprise her) and then get automatic approval from her for $1,400! DUH!

Little story:

My brother and I both share birthdays in October and one year my grandmother sent my brother something but not to me. She later called and asked if I knew why she didn't send me anything. She went on to say that she didn't send me anything because I never wrote thank you notes back.

I told her that so long as I had her love, that was all I needed. She then sent me double.

(I was 8 y/o)

 

RSB and Clazzio's - better handling and more comfortable seats that will hold you in the curves. Tint and window visors make a huge visual difference.

 

I COMPLETELY agree with this haha.

Or maybe spend the money on a weekend getaway road trip and tell her that driving with her in the passenger seat is all the upgrade you need. Give 'er a wink and let it ride!

 

Tuner.

I'm in the same exact boat. 2010 and wheels are done.

While I do need pedals and want a shifter/knob... $500 for a 10-15% gain in HP seems like the best bang for the buck mod.

Although.. every time I do suspension on a car, I always think, "this should have been the first thing I did." But I don't think the suspension/handling is all that bad in the Fit. So I reckon it can wait even though my wheel gap is killing me.
