Didn't get a letter or a call from HONDA, but I was getting my oil change and ask them about it and they did it after the oil change...

its covered by waranty, so if you guys have not done so, go ahead and get it over with... or if it does not bother you then its okay i guess...

yeah, i work in san leandro and get on 880 around that time...

what i mean about your headlight is that i want a closer and better look. i have not seen one at the moment... reason why asking is because i want to try and get the jdm look... you know..... ??? so, i'm gonna swap out my bom headlight for a silver storm or night hawk black one.....

anyways, i have piaa xtreme white light bulbs on the car and it lights up pretty brite!! but will be getting hids soon...

sorry for my driving,if i had cut you guys off or so.... sometimes i'm in a rush or sometimes people just over kill it on driving on 880 and the list just goes on.....

Wow, not much action in this thread, or section, for that matter. Where is everyone? Just got mine a month ago, but sadly, it's currently being split between my dad and I, and I'm looking to probably get one for myself late next year, so I can pick between the current and the redesign.

You're right- the Bay Area Fit owners don't have much to say, or at least don't say it here.

Welcome to the board. I recommend the progress rear sway as a no downside(other than the low around 160 delivered price) mod that makes a big difference in the way the car goes around corners.

Hey guys, I also live in the bay area, Mountain View to be exact. I got a Black Fit manual and I absolutely love it. I'll take some pictures of it later whenever I have time, also any meets in the future?

thanks a lot!! installing a swaybar should be the first mod done to any honda. when i had my del sol, i did the swaybar first and that probably changed my handlling characteristics more than installing my suspension ( tein flex ).

sol,
I suggest that you also watch the "dual rate springs----" thread started by ciburri in Dublin. So far, EXWRX and I are waiting for the chance to try out ciburri's Fit after he receives and installs the springs that are being brought in from Japan by jbrisson. Based upon ciburri's first post on these springs, I am more attracted to these than any other suspension upgrade that has been discussed in the forums. Don't know about you, but if I can keep on improving the handling characteristics of this car without a huge cost, I am very interested.
Dave

Plus keeping the ride as soft as or slightly softer than stock, over minor bumps. Supposedly, these springs will do that.

yeah, but i got a REALLY good deal on these springs, so i'll just roll on them. if i don't like them, i'll just get better stuff. my last two cars had major suspension mods (my del sol and mustang) so im not worried about the ride quality. lol. i just wanted a cheap way to lower the car.
