i was unsure of how ASM would look on a fit.
i usually don't like silver cars, but it doesn't look half bad.
it might grow on me.

i had my sight set on an SSM GE8, but now they've discontinued the color

My user name was "jpshizzle" and I had a 91 coupe. I was moreso a lurker than a poster.. but yeah I noticed the lack of people on .com when I last visited a few months back.

Your legend looks really good, makes me miss mine a lot =)

AHHHHH nice yea i remember that car it was Clean too you just happened to have the sedan wheels on it. Did you ever get GS wheels or it?

Thanks I just drove it and got it washed man its a total different car that the Fit the fit is just soo lite and nimble compared to it and feels confident in the turns but man is that legend set up or what! Konis set one turn down from stiff and lowered just over an inch with the TSX wheels , through it into any turn and it just grips and pulls you through.

Silver looks great stock, or with mods. Nothing like a silver car! It would have been my choice had it been available -as tempting as the new dark grey is. Silver is good in Texas and easy to keep clean. The only thing I don't like about the Storm Silver paint, like I have, is that is looks pretty flat/boring/invisible sometimes, but on a rainy, or overcast day, as well at dusk, it is stunning. Silver = classy.

Yeah... self-centered, "it's all about me" idiots everywhere these days. You should have notes made up to put on those kinds of people's windshields... the note should read:

"Next time, please leave me a friggin' can opener so I can get in or out of my car... moron!"

Not my car, not my incident, but it still makes me somewhat furious just looking at it! Thanks for ruining my afternoon!

Hey BBoarder, any more mods planned for the car. Little mods like the chrome bulbs that turn amber would set that silver car off, drop me a PM and I'll let you know where my buddy got em' from for me. Its about $25.00 total and it really makes a difference. If you search my posts, you'll see what they look like on my car, very cool mod IMO

The more I see silver the more I like it!!!

Sweet thanks I'll check it out. Since this is a lease my mods are limited. Im looking to have tint and some suspension mods. Perhaps an intake. Stuff that I can take off easily in 3 years
