and I think there's more but I can't remember offhand. I'll be picking up my iKONA grill/rear badgeless garnish tomorrow as well as installing my hondafittuner bumper garnish. I'll be taking more pics once that happens, though it's supposed to rain so I may hold off. Better Engine pics to come

And the reason you're looking at this thread....

The pics

Here's what she looked like last time I took any pictures.


...and what she looks like now


What? Sorry, I can't hear you! These next 2 pictures are really NOISY!




Even though they're Rotas, I'm very happy with them


at least they got some real rubber on them


no tripod ftw




obligatory "no parking" shot








Schaumburg's finest


This was the best I could do here


Warp Speed, Mr. La Forge




please go away





.: Edit :. DAYTIME PICS


first up...the engine


Installed iKONA rear badgeless garnish and rear lower garnish



Installed iKONA icon grill


iKONA personified. Meet John (tall) and Manny (not as tall, but still taller than me)






Sorry for the terrible photo quality. I'm using a crappy point and shoot (Sony DSC-W55)

BONUS PIC:

My Kittahs, Anakin and Rambo


\/ \/ Also, new sig \/ \/

 

Hey! I saw your car downtown the other day on Michigan ave, I think. I saw the decals and that's how I found this website lol. Unless there's another black fit on black wheels driving around Chicago with those decals. Car looks real nice!

What else do you have planned?

 

coming together nicley!!!

 

Don't mind the wheel snobs, the black Rota's look nice. What size tires are those? They look like they have a nice sidewall which fills in the gaps nicely. Good job.

 

damn how old is Rambo..also how'd you get that check engine light.?

 

dude you look EXACTLY like this other fit in Virginia. I sold him my blackslips and now you have a twin LMAO (he's a base model too)

BTW i still like that first picture. I remember seeing it and calling you the Undercover Fit Police!

 

nice to see another base.

 

Stealth......all the way....

 

Thanks for the kind words everyone. I'm at iKONA's shop right now getting my pieces so I'll add some pics of those.

Supakingkoopa: Rambo is almost 18 months old. He weighs over 15 Lbs and it's all in his ass LOL. I still have yet to determine the exact culprit for the CEL

FitVic: I figure there's a lot of black base fits out there like mine. Black on black is very common. But I likes it anyways. All my color is under the hood I'll be posting some better pics of the engine bay later on once I get a chance to detail it this afternoon

And I do remember you saying I looked like a fit cop with my steelies LOL. That's why I took that pic with the squad car

 

looking good. how about some under the hood shots? i want to see the purple intake

 

under the hood is sick you should take some more daytime shots it would be better quality with a point and shoot

 

WERE twins =)

 

kelso what;s with the CEL? Mine was on for a day or two with the Last Station intake. It might be the PCV valve. Make sure everything is nice and tight and plugged in.

 

haha ballin status man.
any difference between the two intakes?

 

New pics added to first post. I took a new engine shot just for you revd34

 

Loving it so far, though I might have to add that you should look into the sport rear lip 'cause the Megan exhaust sticks out like a sore thumb without it, at least in the pictures.

 

nice base u got there!

 

Purple intakes FTW.

 

haha I wasn't sure how people would feel about all the purple under the hood.

I was trying to go for 2 things: clean, stealthy, conservative outside but srcretly flashy and colorful while still functional inside

In any case, I love how my car is right now. It's not JDM, it's not rice, it's just mine

 

i've been eyeing those blox purple lugs for awhile. i like that you painted your slips flat black.
