Latest shots of my VBP Fit!

Hey everyone:
Keeping it relatively mild for the time being...
Skunk2 50mm cat-back (thanks fit4kris!!), Skunk2 short shifter kit, and Skunk2 springs to come, and some other RELATED goods
Xenith Xenons 6000K PnP Conversion kit
XPEL Tech. 30mil yellow foglight film
Blacked out headlight housings
Black OEM wheels (courtesy of fit_2_fcuk, via fit4kris)
Some random decaling
Zeta Products center storage console
Blue footlights, LED panel dome light

All photos by yours truly, using a sony cybershot dsc-p72 point & shoot, nothing fancy. Edited using photobooth and gimp for mac.
Let me know what y'all think!




























These are just some of my favs. I got a little snap-happy

And now some shots after installing my skunk2 springs... 1.5" front, 1.0" rear...





Your photo caption has been updated



EDIT: I think I fixed the image size issue. let me know if they're bigger now guys!

I'm not sure whats up - I uploaded these and edited them at max. res. to photobucket, and when I used the insert image button here they just came in tiny. I tried enlarging them here, but no go. I'm going to see if photobucket has some auto re-sizing thing that might have affected their size. I uploaded them on my myspace page and they seem to be coming out fine.

Thanks! I was sort of expecting them to look tacky as well, but I figured for now it's better than nothing. And they look better than I anticipated. I don't take credit for the job though, these are actually part of a trade I made with another forum member. Got the skunk2 50mm system out of it as well.

My priorities are aimed more along the lines of go, versus show...

Thanks ray! Springs will have to wait 'til I get back from Maine after the holidays. Not enough time at the moment. It's sad to look at them in their box everyday ...patience is not my strong suit.

Thanks for the comps man - I think it's the cheapest "mod" I've done and it's already getting the most attention out of anything from general passerby's. Now people are getting used to seeing fits on the road, but they don't seem to know much about them. I put it on today before I took the photos and had 2 people at stop lights ask if it was true, and I noticed a few more looking over and smiling/point it out.
I like the stockers just fine for now, and you can't beat OEM wheels this light... my buddy wants them to put on his civic. If I get more into aesthetics I'll swap them, but for now, they work.

decals

decals were from GrafiXpressions - Express yourself in vinyl form!...
great company, and super cheap - 10 bucks or more is free shipping. they have tons of stuff. the decal originally came with a picture of a gas pump too, but I thought the words were enough. I might add it later, but less is more to me. it was about 4 bucks for it. I got a few others so I could get free shipping. Quick turn around, had them in under a week - everything is cut to order from them.
edit: ha, sorry billmus, guess there's some overlap between these posts!

don't worry about props ha I got the idea from other fitfreakers! everyone seems to have them in different spots though - above the exhaust, on the mani. cover, bumper, windows, etc. I'm the first to put it on the gas cap door though I THINK. Anyway, have fun with it - it's most noticeable I think there, or somewhere on the rear bumper/hatch. I put it on for that exact reason - I get sick of them mother truckers - bigger's not better!

photobucket autoresize

when u uploaded the full size version, photobucket, they will automatically resize to 250k. You can either resize it in Photoshop or somthing or just change the settings in photobucket to allow larger files.

yea from the size of the pics ur fit looks pretty good
