Fit in Hawaii (photoblog)

Wassup guys, just picked up a 2012 CBP Fit sport in April and i've been loving it since. I love photography and wanted to create a sort of 'photoblog' (so to speak) featuring images of my Fit in PARADISE! Hopefully, you guys will post your awesome photos as well!

Here are a few to start!

Funny thing is that I've been telling myself that since I got the car, but to be honest, I think Honda did a pretty good job w/ the car's stance from teh factory. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely LOVE the drop on ur Fit, but I'll probably keep the stock height for year or so.. just so I don't find myself falling short on 'mods' later.. <-- Like that'll ever happen

What kine suspension you running right now?

i'm down for one car cruise. i'm in mililani. i got the polished metal fit (i think that's the official color. i just say it's gunmetal grey). i'm on apexi n1 coilovers, hks hi power exhaust, jdp front lip, painted stock rims (planning on buying rims soon), and DIY intake.

but if anyone is interested in buying my Eibach Sportline springs, just lemme know. i'm not serious enough to post a thread in the For Sale section, but if you guys want, hit me up.

I've been hearing a lot of good things about the Swift springs. Have you looked into those? maybe i'll do a comparison between the Swift and Tein's later today after work. I probably wont pick up for a while, but good to read up and learn, right? lol

Honolulu's roads are no better, so I totally understand. Dodging potholes here in Hawaii is like Autocrossing on public roads

and for the record, I looked up that JDP front lip and its SUPER nice for just a lip! I already love our front bumper and I think that lip is the cherry on top the cake! I haven't emailed inquiring about price, but im curious, how much did you drop for it? My brother just dropped $650 for a OEM S2K front lip and I dont have thank kind of money at the moment lol I'm definitely adding it to my 'must have' list though!!!

I'd be down to cruise too. Being new to the Fit community and all, I wanna check out what you guys have and I definitely wanna learn more. Still a noob haha!!
