You should have sent me a pm, I forgot I posted in here...
The Honda part number for the caps is 44732-SV7-A000. I grabbed them off ebay so I don't know the year/model.

Well in all honesty, it doesn't seem to be to low to me. I still have a 1 1/2 finger gap on each corner and I haven't really hit anything while climbing up on some sidewalks, driveways. I haven't bottomed out on the freeway either like I see many dropped cars do sometimes.

One thing about the Skunks is that they are STIFF, they are only progressive in the rear and only bit a little bit, the front ones are linear, and althought the spring rate isn't a racing spring rate by any means it will throw you around on the freeway if you go over a large dip like our beautiful streets here have. I've just learned to avoid them and not care since I'm moving up to T1R coilover later down the road anyways.

Now On 14's... Yellow Too!!!

Ok, so maybe I went a little overboard. They came out just the way I wanted; VERY vibrant. Theres lots of pearl and ohh do they look great!

The colors are going to have to get some getting use to. I like them and then again I dont.

Wheels are TSW Quads. Rare light weight wheels. 14x6 35mm offset. Thanks smeister!!!
Tires are 205/60/14's. Smallest Ive put on her. I can really feel the difference. The car has noticeably more body roll. (Due to 60series tires Im sure.) Im definitely going to get a Progress Sway Bar.

Color is S2K Rio Yellow Pearl. It was a 2stage paint. Pastel yellow base, then a nice yellow pearl.
This was just the base and it was still wet. When it dried it was pale.










Nice offset for the Fit.




I should have really nice pics after tomorrow. Theres another Lollicup meet. Ill ask my friend to take his camera.

So now that Im advertising McDonalds Im going to get a vintage Ronald McDonald doll off Ebay. I found one but its a little too small. Im sure it'll still be there for a while. Hang it from my C-pillar bar Im also going to buy.

Looks much better than what I pictured from reading the title of the post. I actually like it!

The vintage Ronald is a funny addition. Get one of the big ones from the resturants today, and you can travel in the HOV lane, maybe be his official driver? Dunno....

Give up on the BBS idea yet?

BBS's actually look really good. The guy I bought the rims off has Miata 14in BBS's on his white base. They look so good. I picked these up cheap and made them work. Not bad for a little over $300. Wheels and tires.

As for the Ronald idea. At first I was going to do a sticker. His face and him giving 2 thumbs up. Id think that would give more laughs.

I met my friend up at Autozone right after I put them on. Hahaha, Ive never had some many looks. Some guy in a C6 Z06 gave me a "WTF face" and I could tell thats what he said.

Painted them myself. I get the paint from my friend, he works at a body shop. I forgot the brand of the paint.

I have a cheap paint gun. I work with what I have. So far it comes out good.

Miata BBS = $$$. They may all become collector's items shortly however due to BBS's financial situation. Look sharp, and I like them. My favorites are the gold ones myself, especially on a white car. Looked good on a friend's Euro spec white Merc 280CE.

Fat fives, the old Del Sol wheel?

Those Miata wheels are already big money. Used in "ok" condition go for 400+ without tires. Im sure the 94ish Corolla BBS wheels are cheaper. I believe the lip is bigger also. Not to mention them come gold and silver.

Mine are the GSR/ Special Edition Fat5's. The wheels are heavy and sorta modern. Thats why I didnt like them.

Im having a hard time selling the same things. I HATE EM!

I'll keep you proud! Still not up to my Mx6 and her 7-8sets I had.
