Newbie, to Fit not to cars lol

Hi all!!! Just wanted to intro myself. Just got a Purple 2008 Fit Sport.... coming from a long time love of Nissans so bear with me. I don't know much about these Hondas. My wife and I have a 2002 CRV and we decided to have both vehicles serviced at the same dealership___ so we got a second Honda. Got some LED headlights, interior lights coming as well as weathertech full carpet kit and a 22mm Progress rear sway bar in route!!! Woo Hoo. Its an auto not manual and a daily driver. Once the shocks go possibly a set of coilovers, but for now just the anti-sway bar. Thanks to your site here decided not to get any bolt on performance parts for the engine just focusing on handling upgrades. Thanks for having me here

Welcome to FF. Id love to see your LED headlights of course at night. I currently have HID's but may switch after warranty is up next year or def the fogs when the halogens blow. Thank you and again welcome. The shocks wont go on their own in a Honda. Has your CR-V shocks gone bye bye yet?

Had a Nissan Spec V Sentra before, shocks were just going bad at100k.... and that suspension was better than the Fit. I want better handling yet it has to be adjustable to me comfort for my wife. ... leaning towards tein set up with EDFC. Definitely will post pics of the LED headlight conversion

Welcome to the show! Honda stock shocks and engine are known to last at least 200k miles when properly maintained.

Enjoy your upgrade projects!
