What mods do you have waiting for spring?
With spring just around the corner, just wonder what mods are you plannng to do?
Being that our FiT Sports auto won't be in till 2 week of April, my short list of mods to do are:
1. Eibach Pro-Kit springs
2. Honda Sports Grille
3. JDM Honda Rear Emblem
4. Honda Armrest w/ storage compartment
5. Sports pedals
6. Shift knob - leather
7. SSR Type F RS 16 x 7 +43mm offset and 205/45 x 16 all season tires
8. Rear sway bar

- oem visors
- front/rear red emblems
- springs (hopefully)
- powder coat rims (possibly)
I'm not as crazy as you guys in terms of having money to spend on my car so I'm just thinking of going with those 4 things and that's about it. Rims are too $$$ for me right now so the next best thing would be to powder coat them to a different colour to match my blue GE sport. Springs would lower the car and give it a slightly more aggressive look but I'll probably regret it when it starts snowing again later in the year hahaha. Visors + emblems are relatively cheap and it'll make it look a little different compared to the other stock 09 sports so why not?

Gas dryer! Really?
Agreed, practically every knock off brand is coming out with black wheels & red stripe. There is going to be an epidemic of this style by this summer!
Black on SSM will look sweet, keep it clean and simple IMO!

when I had them on my previous FiT (lowered with Eibach Pro-Kit springs)
I intend to lower the car (mild drop), so what is the recommended offset on a 16 x 7 or 16 x 8? TIA.

Thanks all for your comments and suggestions. FelixY69, the Works wheels of Fit of Rage (16 x 7 +35 offset) had rear fender rub issues
when I had them on my previous FiT.
I intend to lower the car (mild drop), so what is the recommended offset on a 16 x 7 or 16 x 8? TIA.
