has anyone tried using the front coil over sleeves off of the 92-00 civic on the front of the fit? I'm debating on trying this, seeing if anyone else has done it or failed before hand.

I may just have to try that one Ryan. Never have done it, and really need to. Is your stock hole still there in center of bumper? Or did you do as Kenmei did and fill it?
Any progress on that exhaust of yours?

You subscribed to this thread,but ask him. I belive these GCs were of a EG. Not sure though. But coilover sleeves on stock shocks are gonna ride alot worse than springs on stock shocks.

I lucked out and didn't have any hole drilled in by the evil dealer and my exhaust is welded up and lookin sweet. I'll get some fresh pics when I get a chance to wash it.

So I traded up my 08 fit sport OEM rims for some Rota Group N black rims with red trim around them. Good thing with the trade was that I got brand new tires as my old ones were wearing out. I thought my 08 had TPMS sensors on them, but even after the trade, i don't see the light lite... strange..



Images of them on my car soon!.. anyone in the bay area down for a photoshoot this week?

that is odd about the TPMS sensors... my light came on when I had my 17's waaaaaay back. but after I got my GSR blades I put the TPMS sensors in those and all is good now I wonder if there were a limited amount of GD3's that didn't come with TPMS? .... weird

I think all 08 have to have them and they are wire less so if your old tire were still within range the car would think they were still there.

and if it's a evening/night shoot I can make it. I work until 7 all week

That is hot, and you guys need rain too. I wont complain about the upper 80's but tomorrow is suppose to get mid 90s and humid and I have no air conditioning. My grass is dried up and I wont water it.

All you guys being upset by the heat, id love some of that, rather than rain every day in the UK

I fitted a roof rack and visor, but im not sure if the visor should be behind or infront of the aerial?
