Tanabe NF210's would be your best bet bro PM me...

Looking unreal so far, love every bit of what I'm seeing. Just a dam shame Its next to impossible to source up JDM parts for the Fit/Jazz in Australia . I'd get stuck right into it if getting parts wasn't an issue.

Keep it up

Ashpanda, the drop on the car looks great. But I do have a question... How is the ride quality? Is the car more bouncy than stock? I'm assuming that you are running on stock shocks/struts...

I also want to know! how is the ride quality if running on stock shocks/struts? I would think it would be bouncy too.

The ride is AWSOME! not bouncy at all, and its alot more stiff, they took about 80% of the body roll out. they are the best thing i've bought so far

They set exactly Flush, so i think anything less then +45 will stick out, and thats just because i am slammed about 2in. so the camber made it possible!

Your GE has pushed me over to the dark side, i actually think the GE looks really good with a drop, tint, and wheels. Too bad the stock alloys are outrageously ugly.
