the replica lip can be had for only $80 in ABS plastic. you'll have to paint it though thanks

 

thanks man! looking forward to seeing your thread too

paint should be arriving today so i can fix the bumper. need to apply my JDM badge on the front (decal dude sent me the GE size by accident). the only other thing left on the list would be JDM license plate and independent fog DIY's for now!

 

so this is what my car looked like when i ran out of paint, trying to take care of some dings and a screw hole in the middle of the bumper ....







paint took a week and a half to arrive, needless to say, i was so happy!

here's what she looks like now:







also did ryanrolands JDM license plate install and installed the JDM red H





more pics to follow once i reinstall the bumper! (gotta wake up early -- ugh!)

This is a really nice looking Fit!

 

thanks my man, i really need to take some proper pics of my car soon!

 

Nice mods and great looking fit. Looks like your mod list is growing pretty quickly. I'm not sure but I guess you missed that pwjdm cover that was in the classifieds not too long ago.

 

are you talking about the carbon kevlar cover? saw that one -- but thats not for me. i want to match my intake. kevlar would have been perfect for ryan roland though it'd match his scoop!

 

ah ok wasn't sure but he let it go for a pretty good price. I noticed your going to be running hids for the headlights are you going to do the same for the fogs?

 

I know, I kinda regret letting it pass but hopefully another will pop up someday

 

i'm unsure at the moment. RR has em, and i know they look nice. but not 100% sure if it'd be worth it to me. right now i've adjusted them (angled em up) to project further down the road. so they work decently well and the yellow overlays look nice.

 

after ryan roland and i finished installing HID's and independent fogs, wee headed to in n out for some grub. upon leaving the joint we notice another fit parked next to us. so odd, because it's very rare to see any fixed up fits in our area.... hmmm....







wow...SPOON calipers. he had a full spoon exhaust, spoon carbon fiber duckbill, spoon antenna...everything was spoon'd out practically. he even had some awesome custom paddle shifters made of carbon fiber.

we talked to him a bit and checked out eachothers rides. what a weird coincidence.




then, we rolled out to hit some twisties...













made it to the top and stopped to take some pics:

 

Looks like a fun day. Your Fit looks great man, completely different from the last time I saw it. Hit me up next time.

 

ya man, it was fun. after we did the HIDs/fogs we washed my car to head up hwy 9 to take pics.

..of course it started raining! then we were stuck behind a school bus for 1/3 of the twisties


thanks for the compliments Tim, both ryan and i have come a long way since when we last met! we need to do another south bay mini-meet

 

Hey man car is looking good, i was just trolling through this thread and I wanted to ask you about your front lip, it seems like it was installed higher than i have seen on others fits... any reason for this?

 

i kept scraping if you read through here i believe i mentioned it (or in the what did you do to your gd3 thread) ...so i moved it up as high as it would go and screwed it onto the bumper itself instead of using the brackets. it's not the best fit, but i'd rather not be scraping everywhere i go... a little bit of functionality over form i guess?


thanks!

 

ah ok, makes sense...yeah i was more or less just checking out the photos, i am too tired for reading lmao, but good job none the less.

 

Nice looking fit! nice mods how do u like the Medallion (i have the same exhaust)

@your friend with the orange fit: what lip is that on his fit?
