Even a mild drop would improve the look of your fit a thousand time over.

I haul several hundred pounds of bulk mail for my work each week. No problem at all. Don't have to be a Ray rip your oil pan off kind of drop. Something like Tanabe GF springs or Swift would be good.

Talking Audi LED lights gave me this idea

So you know the lights I'm refering 2 right? Those (Audi) are the 10mm LED's and this is a 5mm super bright white "china express" version.
Time consuming, but the parts are cheap
I like the effect & can't wait to get the other side done and wired into the parking light curciut.
For what they are they're pretty bright I lit up a wall in the garage (lights off) tonite just checking them out.

I wouldn't put Brembo brakes on my lightly modded Fit ether, Spoon Calipers on the other hand HELL YES!

You have done a lot of really cool things with your Fit, but in all honesty the Brembo stickers is some thing im not a real fan of.

Thumbs up Autolite XP5224


I changed out the NGK OEM plugs (25k) for these. If you don't know it I'm CHEAP (that's part of the FUN )
so I saw these @ RockAuto for 5.00 apeice, OK then of course I check a few other sites for Price, Rebates Ect., Ect.
Amazon had on their site a printable rebate 2.00 per plug off w/ upc from the box.
So where else can ya get iridium plugs for the Fit for 12.00.

What I noticed were the OEM plugs weren't even tight when I backed them out to put the new ones in.
Added copper anti-seize and installed 1/4 turn after hand tight.
Took MzFiT for a 20 mile trip 2k-6.5k rpm hiway & intown all is good. My MPG is headed south and I want to see if plugs would help,
It has smoothed out the cold startup idle.
God is Good all the Time

Well the new plugs are a + on the 1/2 tank I had after installing the plugs it's 7% better MPG than the last tank! 30.25 vs 27.75 mpg filled her up tonight so I'll post what that does mileage wise.

The killa' part is they never show their rides....Hummmm.

Keep up the good work...you can't hide from the "Naysayers-they'll seek you out!!!!! For they have nothing else to do - God bless'em>>
