i need everyones help!

I'm in the midst of FINALLY doing mod's to my car.

So far I have LED tails, new headlight/foglight bulbs, mugen visors (waiting to be shipped) and a short ram intake. i dont know what to do next!

any ideas? i was thinking maybe red honda emblems, but that i can do anytime. i want to do bigger stuff over the winter/spring.

I agree buy what you want, screw saving. I'm getting everything possible while I'm in the navy because when I get out I'm going to be broke and won't be able to afford ANYTHING for my Fit

use some flat black primer. and your good to go.

YAKIMA rack , zeta hood deflector a new spoiler, a new header, and you could always do coil overs. raised in the winter...slammed in the spring.

I would not drop going into a CT winter, or do wheels for that matter (as salt gets to some finishes)

I'd do the spoon short shifter kit (inexpensive and a great mod)
and do a lightweight crank pulley (not that expensive and you'll get a tiny bit of it back I think in MPG)

Will keep you busy and saving most of your $$$ until spring

nah man. I'll get out and collect unemployment for the summer if I can't get a job right away. Then I'll be going to school and the new GI Bill pays for housing so I'll be fine. I'm a Jew that hates saving money lol

blackened fog housings, scangauge

Blackened fog housings definitely a must IMO and very easy, and if you wanna save some mpgs definitely get a scangauge.

Oh yeah, can't forget tint! That was my very first mod and it makes a huge difference in the look as well as functionality in the summer.
