well i got 350-400$ to blow on the car. gimme some suggestions. right now im thinking tint,foglights, and some new headlamp bulbs. oh i have to replace my rear interior lights under the seats. i smashed one that fell out from under the front seat. after i put the seat down

i have plans to save for coilovers, wheels, and maybe a lipkit over the winter months. i dont really want to get any other suspension parts till the coilovers and nice wheels go on. id hate to waste a set of sway bars on poo tires.

 

Wheels and tires. Drop it later. I normally would say to drop it before the wheels and tires, but the dunlops suck too bad.

 

wheel and tires are gonna be like $1000 and i have to buy winter tires first so thats next summers first job

 

Drop it, yo. The Fit looks so sexy dropped on the stocks.

 

Yeah I would go spend the $200-$250 and drop the car then spend the rest and get tint.

My springs were $210.00 and Tinting cost me $211.00.

 

If you're going to get tint, scroll on down to the local forums and ask for what kind of prices people are getting for tint. Fitcapo paid $210 but I paid only $140 through a recommendation of someone on here (azncarbos). I'm sure there's even cheaper in some places.

Oh yeah, by the way, I got 35% tint all-around because of you, Fitcapo. :b

 

my boss had his matrix tinted for about 160 and its a good job, so i was gonna take mine to the same place.

btw i have the LX so theres hubcaps on there, dont think it will look good when lowered till i get some new wheels/tires. plus coil overs > springs cause i drive like a mad man.

 

You could send me that 400 bucks and Ill drop mine and tint it as well. Just kidding. Tint IMO is a must.

 

Yeah I love the 35% all around it is dark enough to look good but not too dark. At night no a street with no lights seeing out the back windows is a big issue even with the 35% so that is one reason I am glad I didn't go darker but then again now that I have everything on my car black a darker tint would have looked better. Ohh well I am happy with my 35%

 

Tint, Baby, tint !

Our Fit air conditioners suck donkeys, as do all Honda A/C's. They could take a lesson from Toyota on what kind of A/C we Yanks like.

 

i am for sure getting tint, wanted it on the car since i took delivery. i sold a guitar for tint too and end up spending on money on bills, BAH!.
think im gonna get the fogs too. maybe get some interior work done.

 

Can you take pics of the Urban Under Dash Glow Kit?

I really want to get those for my Fit!

 

qft

lowered base ftw...

AND THENNNN.

get some oem honda rims cheap

 

heres the underdash lights installed.

 

You could probably do both tires and springs for $400, which are the best mods I can possibly think of. Your enjoyment of the car will improve a LOT.

The stock tires are truly terrible. It's scary how little grip they have in the corners. Going to a nicer set will hugely improve steering feel and turn-in. Springs are a major improvement too. The Fit rolls and dives too much in stock form, especially on 14's.

 

^bingo....

 

The cheapest and most rewarding mod is 1/4" spacers for the wheels. Not only improves stance but also appears to fill out the gap between fender and tire. Best yet those spacers are available for about S20-25 per set. Make sure thread engagement is at least diameter of lugbolt.
After that you should work on wheels and tires, then suspension.

 

spacers sound nice that i think about it. the stockies do seem to be to narrow for the wheel wells. ill have to look into that.

i think thou im settled on just getting my tint as it seems im gonna have to move out of this apt sooner then expected. starting to get a bad mold problem in random spots and im not living in it.

 

I would go with the Tint for sure.

 

i would say drop the car, if i had 300-400 dollars that would/is going to be my first mod
