VRSean's finished fit

I've had the GE8 since July 2010 and tried my hand at a lease to deter me from modding the car beyond resale and as the return date is creeping up on me I decided to throw a handful of parts at it that I've been admiring over the last couple of years. A good friend offered to lend a hand with photos a few weeks ago and I'm pretty happy with the turnout.

In an odd turn of events 5 minutes after I received these edited photos, Honda called to ask me to come down early and get into the 2013 Fit. Although tempting, I think I am moving to a new manufacturer in July. All parts in these pics will be for sale soon

Mod List:
Mugen Front Lip
Mugen Floor Mats
JDM Badges
Visors: Unknown Origin, lol
Tanabe Pro S0-C Coilovers
SSR Type C: 15x6.5 +35
Falken 205/50/15
JDM rear wiper clocking
HID Fogs

Thanks! Been lowered a few times and had to pull the helper springs out of the front and perches out of the rear to get it to sit right on the 15s. Next car will most likely be a luxury model, I dig the CT200h but I may go LS460 or G37 Sedan. Running out of time to decide

Nice job man, I've always liked bronze wheels on black. I'd like to see someone do a CT200h, that would be different than the usual VIP lexus lol.

Sent you a PM btw.

The CT200h would be nice if they offer a nonhybrid with manual transmission I like the looks.

Sad to see it parted, but you will NOT regret the 370!

Did you opt for the "blip shift?"

Well I dont know what "blip shift" means and Google has let me down. But it is the 7at with the sport package

the "Blip shift" is on the SynchroRev Match 6-speed manual.

But the 7AT looks like it does rev match down shift's as well! sweeeeeet....

yeah, the revmatch is pretty gnarly. Just got it Sunday, car goes on the dyno today for a baseline and start building from there. I will miss being able to haul people and parts, guess I need a truck on the side

Depending how far you go.... a tow vehicle never hurts. BECAUSE RACECAR

If you've ever tried or thought about AutoX with the SCCA, I have seen several 370's at events
