was gonna put this in a suspension thread, but i figured i'd better put 'em in here! nothing special, just Depo LED tails, skunk2 springs, and wiper delete.

I also smoked the foglights, but wasn't too thrilled about them. so i left the housings out for a few days, i think it looks pretty good! if i were gonna leave them out permanently, i would fab some home depot grille or something...we'll see. for now, the housings are going back on and the car is being raised back up.

thanks for lookin'! this community really kicks ass. and to think, I almost bought a Scion! nah, just kidding. but the new xB has been growing on me......it looks like those trendy conductor hats transformed into a car!

 

nice nice, you know what the drop is on those springs? Any problems driving it, like scraping?

 

looks kind of cool without the foglight housings. the car looks wider by some weird optical illusion.

 

Looks good! Those smoked tails work real well with that color.

 

id actually like to see some people get creative with the foglight housing area. i dunno, seeing those pics makes it have so much potential. i dunno?

 

It look good the way it's now.
Why you want to raise it back up?

 

looks good. 08' ssm FTW!

 

put your foglights back and paint the housings black that looks like you hit something and took them out cuz you broke one =/

 

^oh yeah i just noticed that.. put them back on dude

 

OR like he's making room for intercooler piping, haha.

i wish someone would make brake ducts that fit there. like the JDM DC5 ones.

 

the drop it 1.5 rear, 1.0 in the front. it probably more than that, though. i scrape that plastic lip under the cars front that runs from side to side, pretty much every day. i wonder if it's removable.....

is so, it's going this weekend!

 

intercooler piping....that's funny dude!

i can barely afford springs. a turbo is financially speaking, at the bottom of my list. and below the KWSC. now THAT i can see somewhere down the line....i ithink it'd suit me more. and i'd like to retain as much of my mileage as possible.

and no, i didn't break anything down there...does it look that way? i just put some of andy's (bluebatmobile) smoke foglight overylays on, and i was in the middle of taking them off. i figured i'd snap a few before i put them back on. i've had them off for a couple of days, and i'll admit..it makes the front look more aggressive. i definately lost the follights "functionality" when i had the smoke overlays on. they were pretty dark.

and...i'll say this again in my other useless thread i created in the suspension forum....i've decided,

to stay lowered!!!! i took one long look at the car today and i realized that i don't want to lose the look. the skunk2's will stay on until i really get tired, or when i can afford the swift's. i'm getting married this year (like in 3 months), so the wifey-to-be has been monitoring my modding habits --very closely-- but she won't notice the skunk2 short shift kit next week, though..... AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

anyway, if any socal peeps spot me, say hey!!! i'm not a dickhead, i swear..


-e

 

nice pics. im thinking about getting skunk2 springs too

 

DUDE finally somebody that thinks a SSM without fog housings looks sick!
i though i was the only one! heres a pic of mine....



also how did you remove the rear wiper? i wanna do the delete.
if you want to sell those skunk2s, you have a buyer right here

your SSM is sick i love it!

 

thanks, dude! i see a KWSC in my future..........like 5 years from now when i'm on my 2nd or 3rd engine...

i wish someone would custom fab a grill insert for the foglight holes, though. it sure makes the Fit looks meaner up front, that's for sure!

 

def looks bad without the fogs ...that is cheap lookin
