Do you mean Lincoln high-way, or Lincoln Park?

How much did it cost to put the vinyl on or was it a DIY? Well first how much did it cost to make the vinyl for your self? And how much would it cost to make one for one of your friends, or maybe a good buddy, or possibly maybe someone on the forum, or like a brother of someone on the forum?

Sorry, I am still new to the area. It was N. Lincoln Ave (41) coming from downtown to Peterson (14). The Fit might have been lowered and had OEM wheels.

That is funny!

but anyways something like what I have ranges from $500.00 to $800.00 depending on detail or how simple and of course includes installation

but yeah , I can get you guys better pricing on what you need , just send me a message of what you are looking for and I can come up with some designs for your FIT

any other questions about it just send me a message

Peace Out YO!

Hey chucho. I've been meaning to let you know that I'm working at Signs Now in South Elgin. I think your shop deals with one of my old annoying clients. Jannena? Runs a cafe up by Gino's East on 64. How many Fit owners work at sign shops? I know there are more than a few of us.

LOL! that is too funny, did you guys make the outside sign for her cafe? did she bring in the artwork for that? she never paid us for the artwork and she owes us for that!!( We had everything ready for her to approve and she stiffed us) I hate that B****! if you see her again tell her we are suing her ass! Stop by the shop one of these days and bring your FIT as well!

Hmm I need to come up with a design first. I am thinking something like 4" x4" or so. PM me an estimate price if possible? Sweet thanks man.

A quick question? Does anybody know if the JDM fit headlights are plug-and-play or will I have to do some modification? I'm asking because I swerved to avoid an accident and scraped the guard rail and I've only owned the car for two weeks. This really sucks. Also does anybody know if they sell molded floor liners for the Fit?

Dang man, that sucks. The JDM Fit headlights don't fit the USDM ones because of the different length front end. I know someone was selling the OEM Honda headlights brand new from the dealer on the forum somewhere for a good price?! It was in one of the black headlight housing threads.

Thanks for the tip smeister, but I'm not to sure how black head lights would look on VBP. I guess its because I can't visualize it. IDK what do you guys think?

If you have the Sport Fit then it will look awesome. Check out the Mugen VBP Fit with the black housing projector headlights at the kingmotorsports website. It looks awesome.

I went to the king motor sports web site and I couldn’t find the VBP fit with mugen black projectors. I also tried looking for fit headlamps and I couldn't fid those either. They might have taken them off the sight since you last visited or maybe I wasn't looking in the right places.

Smeister are you talking about the black projectors or the black USDM fit headlights?
