looks clean doode, the duckbill will set it off for sure.

idk about the 17x9.5 front and 17x10.5 rear, im guessing its going to poke up a lil and have super rubber band look tires. unless you camber the shit out of it. hope it turns out well.

I bought the car with the yellow fog overlays and yea ive been keepin an eye on Fitdeez's thread to see how his car has been coming along too. im excited to see what his fitment will look like!

ive got some dudes who are gonna do sum serious fender pulling and rolling so we'll see how it comes out. If its too much poke (NOT my style) then ill sell them and go with Plan A which were CCW Classics

yea, im still contemplating what color scheme im going with i got some really nice fabric for the headliner and im hoping to tie that in, so we'll see how that goes. As for the wheels.....stretched is the only way to go

Color is awesome with the Mugen Kit. I just put my Mugen grille on what a difference.

What are you going to do about camber in the front and rear?

the coilovers im using right now have adjustable camber for the front. As far as the rear is concerned, ive been reading up on how to achieve camber in the rear and the only solution ive found is swapping out to a JDM trailing arm
since the rear hub plates on the 2nd gen Fit are welded to the torsion beam, not bolted on.

that's a really nice set up. I drive an orange fit as well. I've always wanted to get the mugen kit. Just wondering do you scratch your bumper/kit when u go over speed bumps?

I'm riding on T1R coilovers on 17'' rims. Any idea if that would be a problem for the kit?

Nope. im dropped in the front to the point where the top of the tire lines up with the fender and i make it easily over speed bumps (that includes narrow speed bumps and wide speed bumps)

Since you're on 17s, if you were to ride with the top the tire in line with the fenders you would be ok. It also depends on what profile tires you're running but ive taken speed bumps at 25mph (not paying attention) and havent scratched at all.

have you ordered them yet?
mine were backordered, they had to make mine from scratch in taiwan and ship them over. The only thing that sucked was that they got held up in customs in Cali i had to email them DOT forms and a copy of my SSN, which i found verrrry sketchy but it all worked out in the end

trust me man, theres nothing like seeing your car dropped for the first time!
its an instant smile on your face!

if your speaking about adding fender flares, no. (as of yet)
if your speaking about pulling and rolling, yes

that mugen kit looks sick on a lower Fit!
are those rims you got multi-bolt pattern? or are you going to do 5x114 swap?
