Yea I don't feel bad. Put a nice dent in my RR quarter panel. It's what I get for having 15% with a layer or 5 on the back, didn't even see it with the backup camera. Gives the fit some character now.

Holy searchlight, it is bright enough back there to do brain surgery now! Also nicely illuminates the ground behind the car. For $5 these are a no brainer!

Ordered Clazzio seat covers from Bean Garage (excellent customer service by the way) and finally had the time today to install it.

Prior to install, there's a total of 14 pieces (only 4 shown in this pic) and install is straight forward with installation manual.

And here's a couple of pic after install while I was taking a break in the rear seats.

Still need to smooth it out a bit more, but overall satisfy with how well it looks, fits, and feel.

Great share!

Action-jackson and you got the steering wheel cover right. It's affordable (half the cost of Wheelskins), it looks OEM and its leather!!! The car's interior looks like factory. Good job fellows. Am sure there will be lot's of FF's that will follow this mod sooner than later. Keep up the share.

Spray painted my cheesy hubcaps black. They still look like cheesy hubcaps, but at least they are black, now

Hello

Looks great, one question, was your center headrest the same as the instructions?

the ones i had said that there was a plastic base and the cover had hooks to snap them in place, my GF Fit didn't had the base and we had to pull a Macgyver to set it in place

The center headrest had the plastic hook for my GK.

These?

I'm still noodling springs, but really don't want a drop (our rural Illinois roads are horrible and I need the ground clearance). These might be worth looking at.

Planning to do shocks/struts as well?

Yes those. Got mine from CarID. I'm in the STL metro on the IL side, so I know what you mean with the roads. I don't plan on doing struts for a while yet, which is also part of the reason I wanted a minimum drop. They should be here Tuesday, but I won't have time to put them on until next weekend. Will definitely post pics when I do.

They also have a set with no visible drop whatsoever if that's what you're looking for.

Definitely interested in pics. I'm also not trying to lower a lot, but I think the car would benefit from stiffer suspension.
