Surprise for my deployed husband

My husband (LDO here on the forum) is currently deployed to Iraq and returning in a few months. While he's been gone I've been having alot of fun driving around town in his FIT (or should say my FIT) Beats the heck out of filling up the suburban.

I have also been doing a few mods as a surprise for him when he gets back (but I let the cat out of the bag early since I'm awful at keeping surprises). I figured why pay bills with the tax return when there are mods to be done. Anyway, with the help of SDPANNFIT I got some things done such as:

Car lowered with SKUNK 2 lowering springs
16" Rota Torque Wheels in Gunmetal color (and new Toyo tires)
Greddy Ti-C Exhaust
Carbon Fiber Cover
Top Fuel Intake

I've also bought a few other little things for him to install when he gets home. Take a look and let me know what you think.

What a surprise!

So the wife sends me this 31 slide powerpoint about my BD present. It takes forever to download here in Iraq and then it's like a little story book and the ending has my Fit looking totally awesome!!!

What can I say man. You guys are incredible.

BJ (and Marie), Warren, Pete, Kevin (and anyone I may have missed!)
What you guys have done for me, well, I just don't have the words...

I'm the one that normally has people over and I work on their cars and help out when I can. Just before I left for Iraq, Pete came by and we spent the day chaning his HVAC lights to LEDs that he wanted.

I just do it for the love of it.

But NOBODY has ever done anything like this for me.

Thank you.

Please thank all the fellas that helped out with their time, experience and advice.

You guys are awesome.

THANK YOU!!

And to the wife, well, I guess I'm taking a trip to the jewelry store when I get back!

OR NOT!

Amazing lady for sure!

She gave me a custom chopper as a welcome home present from my last deployment, she once joined a computer forum so she could get the inside scoop on which would be the best laptop to buy me and now this!!

She definitely has taken the gift giving thing to a new level!

Besdies her gift giving, she's a great person, fantastic wife & mother, and has a great heart!
Not sure what I've done to deserve a lady like this but I do know how lucky I am to have her.

And no, she doesn't have a sister and no I won't clone her...well, maybe, for a turbo!

I AM THE WORST EVER AT KEEPING A SURPRISE TO MYSELF!!! I broke down and surprised him early for his birthday since he's out there celebrating it. I felt bad that he had nothing to look forward to while being in Iraq. I tried holding it in but I was about to burst. LOL This was me....
