OH SNAP! I finally posted up my first picture!
Kptrulee's IOWA ROCKS Thread. DIY, Buildup, and Randoms
random pics on page 2,3,4
Gettin to know me:
I purchased my Fit from Holmes Honda in Des Moines, Iowa on October 2007. Reason for purchasing a Honda Fit was the good gas mileage and I decided that I didnt want to keep finding beaters when my projects were under the knife. Project going on now is a 95 dc2 aka jackstand queen. Its rocking the 5-lug, shaved moldings, fully gutted, autopower 4pt, 8gallon Fuel Cell, EM racing bars, jdm itr front end, JIC flt-a2's, etc... Process of building a NA K-series is in the works.
SSM was the 2nd choice as my first was TW and BOM was my 3rd. Finding a taffy white manual sport was near impossible at that time. =( It took 3 weeks but the dealership finally located this car in Montana. I did not have any plans of modding as I told myself that all my money was going into the dc2. Being on fitfreak.net broke me down and the mod bug bit me. Almost 2 months ago I purchased my first mod (tein s-techs) and it just kept on going. I am trying to quit but if I give into temptation again my future mods list would be a spoon spoiler and antenna, LED smoked taillights, jdm armrest console, zeta dead pedal, tint, audio upgrades, and some minor cosmetic stuff (emblems, overlays, etc..)
MODS:

pics are not the greatest, a proper photoshoot is still in the works, need to find a time that works for me and my friend since his camera and editing skills are quite better than mine.

show some pictures of the integra
here is 1 pic of my integra im working on
Here is my other integra I sold right before I got the Fit. You can see I've had the rims for a while. hmgFIT, I actually had the wheels posted for sale a while ago. They didn't sell in 2 months so I decided to keep them. Will let you know if I decide to sell them again.
