The car looks good! I like the look of the Tanabe Medalion Touring Exhaust..it fills the exhaust cutout shape nicely. Couple questions..Have you lost any MPG since you've installed it? How is it with the A/T? Any highway droning? I'm still debating whether I want to get it or not but maybe with your insight it'll help with my decision. I also have an A/T.

Also, can you make some videos of it from different angles? (Inside while driving, drive by, etc.)

I don't have the capacity to shoot videos but there are several youtube clips already up w/ most of the shots you requested.

I have not lost any MPG, and I'm not sure what you mean by "droning". What I can tell you is that it is quiet when you want it to be, almost silent w/ music on. However, it can make a nice smooth sound when pushed, even better with a CAI. If you're like me and want a modest adult sounding/looking exaust that isn't ricerish this is the one for you. I think it's perfect!

By highway droning, I meant a constant humming noise while you're driving, which can get annoying after awhile..but you pretty much answered my question on that. Thanks!

Also, do you have a link to where I can buy this? Thanks!

I'm not going to lie, it does drone a little on the highway, but not some yappy dog or crackling sound, just smooth and low.

On hard bumps and really tight turns...not on everyday driving.

Heh. I was actually in Balmer a couple hours ago. First time taking the Fit to the city. Parallel parkin' LIKE A BAWS. So freakin' easy to whip this car around. My trade in was a 2006 Sequoia...LOL

They're nice. A little rough and bouncy, but for the ride height, not bad.

I also agree, I've debadged since the last shoot, and love it.


The plate is simply the stock frame, flipped upside down, mounted in the 1 factory hole w/ a longer bolt, and a self-tapping screw on the other side.

Wish I did, but not much of a scene out here, so I don't have much help w/ rolling shots.

New photos comming soon. Esp. after I get my JDP OEM style spoiler
