I just got factory from the place I won at but at my cost. Nothing fits like factory plus they come pre painted. I looked around a while back but I like the oe style.

Took my FiT to the midnight showing of Fast Five with some friends. Unfortunately my FiT had to stay in the parking lot. Awesome F'N movie..

ok so now im pissed...ordered my exhaust then 2 hours later i got an email saying my order was canceled cuz it wasnt in stock. then when i look it up again, the price went up by almost $70....jerks.

Anyway...on that note...anyone know where i can pick up an hks axleback for an 07 fit for less than $350 after shipping?
im thinkin i might get a different mod since they want to rape me on the exhaust...any suggestions?

u should email them and complain. its worth a try. tell them exactly what happened and show them a link of ur confirmation and the initial purchase then the cancellation note. they might fix it

Hoyt and his son came by today and we lowered the Fit and installed the new wheels. It was a great time Thanks B!

Warning! if you have spacers on your ride inspect them! take 'em off and use a anti-seize on the backs and the studs. I have had a set on for 16 months and they corroded on the rear drums. And the front spacers were a real pain to get off. Had to cut one up! (Ichiba) If I did it again I would not! Save the pain and just buy rims w/ the right offset.

Thanks alot!!! Hey but from looking at your springs shouldn't the tighter wound coils be sitting at the top? But I don't really think it makes a difference.

Tighter coils are always on the bottom.

Looks great mike. Glad the boys got you dialed in right.
