Illusive's Updated VBP Fit

Well, the snow has finally finished melting and I gave my car a wash. Recently got my T1R coils installed, still got a few kinks to iron out, but it should be resolved soon. My Enkei's don't fit when lowered this much, so they are up for grabs, PM me if interested. Also shown is the VTi-S Rear Spoiler from AJ Racing. Spoon Short Antenna is also a new addition. Enjoy the pics!

Looks sweet Bro,
Is that V1 or V2 T1R Springs?
That is low and clean.

I like it.

The paint cost me an extra $120 at my local body shop. Total price of wing shipped to my door and paint was around CAD$400.

The suspension is the T1R Coilovers, not the springs.

It's great to do the first wash after winter... Still
waiting for the sun

I had the same problem with my Fit: I dropped it
on Eibach pro kit and could not fit my GramLights
rims anymore, so I just reinstall my OEM springs
and forgot about the drop. (springs for sale by
the way).

That's a nice setup you got, the wing look great.

Yeah I wish I could still run my 17" Enkei's, they looked great on the car,but I like the drop too much...only problem is the roads here in Calgary suck! I might have to do the same thing as Philippe and go back to stock...but I hope I can keep the coils on cuz I love the look! I'm already looking into new 15" rims with a large offset to replace my current ones...

Thanks for the positive comments LegoJazz! I'll have to take some pics of the interior later on when I get a chance to vacuum and clean up the interior...

Not enough. The stock wheels offset is 55mm and my Rays are 43mm.
running 205 50 R15 tires. It doesn't rub with stock wheels by the way.
No more susp. mod for me, I'm done. Going to the alignment thuesday
and that's it.

Philippe.

I'm considering that too man, the suspension mods limit the wheels you can put on the car...doesn't help that it snows here and our roads are total shit...mannnn I gotta decide soon...if I can't get the coils dialed in for our roads, I might end up taking them off and selling them to someone here...great coilovers, too bad Calgary has really bad roads with lots of potholes and snow 6 months of the year...bah!

Thats the factory emblem. It looks like that because the H is chrome and the backround is the OEM color of the car. Theyre all like that.
