what's your opinion on....

I just have 1050 miles on my fit, or just owned the car for 6 weeks. I want to swap out the stock springs with EiBachs ($172 pro kit) and I was just wondering if I'm making a mistake of doing this to a new fit.


I normally do my own work, but I don't have the space or the equipment to complete this project. So it bugs me to shell out the cash for the job ($450/alignment x 4), but I need this done for looks and handling.


Should I do it?

I would. You are not going to hurt anything by lowering it on a Pro Kit.

Go for it!

Yep. Also look into the progressive rear swaybar. Big difference and easy install.

It can affect your warranty.

ur making a mistake on the spring choice. get swifts if they have one available for the GK. otherwise, do it if u want the lowered ride and look.
