DITTO!

BTW HONDAFRK, are you attending our Fall Dragon Run? Check out the events thread, I've got it set up already and we've got 5 Fits confirmed from all over the country, we could you use a white one to balance things out for sure! BTW, the pics look great and your car has some serious "squattage" going on there

I've been setting up this run over on The Contour Enthusiasts Group since 2003 and last year was the first time I got FF involved and there was myself, another Fit and an owner who just sold his Fit but came out anyways in his brand new Genesis coupe', come on out and join the fun....again! Drop me a PM.

Yes it is, I don't make it down there very often, but there's plenty of good roads in my area as well.

No promises, would like to make it though, had hoped to make it last year... I wasn't driving hard at all btw, had my girlfriend with me and she doesn't care for spirited driving lol, that and it's just not worth it with the police presence. Never got much over the speed limit, if over at all.

Nice pics! Car looks good. I think your back visors are flip-flopped. They should be on opposite sides of the car.

Make sure it's real hot out when you do the removal. You can get some dental floss to get under the double sided tape. Will probably have to replace the tape and maybe the plastic push button clips. Might be able to salvage those if you're real carefull getting the tape loose.

Yeah floss is a good idea, thanks for the tip man.

It's not worth doing anything stupid on the Dragon, way too much traffic and LEO's. I couldn't do much without tearing the shit out of my fender lining right now anyways lol.

Much thanks, suspension is Eibach Prokit on oem struts. Didn't think the Prokit was supposed to lower the car this much or I wouldn't have put them on yet.

Wheels are 16x6.5, think the offset is +42, tires are 205/50/16.

Last year I saw about 7 cop cars out on the Dragon, on Sat but that was more than I saw in my previous 8 trips down there, seriously! We're picking Saturday for our trip out on route 28 aka Moonshiners road because of all the cops out there, not to mention site seeres too.

Hope to see you out there HondaFrk, as well as anyone else that wants to go, our run is well organized and has good people going, as usual! This includes 5 Fits, we're taking over out there this year!

Thanks again, wheels are Rota Slipstreams. Possibly the most popular wheel ever for Honda's lol. Most have thankfully moved on from them now, I love em.
