What did you do to your GE fit today?
#7642
how about you drop the douchey attitude and move along if it doesn't suit your taste, it's not your car.
I don't think every fit owner can afford to drop G's like you on projectors. Curious, what is your set up?
Also, fiy the bulbs are angled just right to prevent the blinding others as much as possible.

I don't have projectors, they're insanely expensive and not worth it. I just stick with stock bulbs and housings because they're made to DOT standards so there is nothing wrong with them, they light up the road just fine. And "the bulbs are angled just right to prevent the blinding of others as much as possible." ...How considerate. The simple fact is you cannot angle reflector housings to make them not insanely bright, it's not about the angle. The reflector housing is designed to reflect back stock halogen light, which is not blinding. It's not made to reflect HIGH INTENSITY DISCHARGE light, and that's why no matter what you do it's going to blind people, because it's a reflector housing and the light output is so high it will shine into oncoming traffic's eyes no matter what you do. PUTTING HIDs IN REFLECTOR HOUSINGS IS NOT HOW IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE DONE. IF YOU CAN'T AFFORD PROJECTORS STICK TO HALOGEN BULBS. I do not have a "douchey" attitude, you are the douche blinding other drivers on the road.

Simply put, you're doing something wrong and to the detriment of other drivers and I'm allowed to call you out on it. Plus it makes you look like a dumb ricer to other people on the road who know the difference.
#7648
hahah dude get lost, i'm not arguing with you. All I did was an update on my car and you freaked out. I understand where you stand and know the vailidty of your point. What i don't understand is why you won't let it go and go find some other tread to rant on?

^^that blows. i tried to install new lug nuts on the fit and it ended up turning into having to get a stud replaced. which doesn't sound bad, it's about a $2 part, but in the fit you have to press them out and replace some sensor, ended up costing me a day at the dealership and $100 in labor (and that's AFTER i brought in just the hub to them)
#7651
That suuuuuucks. At least your dealer had the parts! I called every big box store in town, plus the Honda dealers, no dice. Ordered the replacement on Saturday, so hopefully it'll get here soon.
#7653
They didn't. I brought them a new stud to install. I was gonna do it myself, until I found out what all had to be done.
oh, and I was bored, so I just finished this...
Plast-dipped the hood. I will probably be ordering some satin black vinyl to wrap it in soon.

For the transmission, I used the Honda ATF DW-1. For the oil, I already had a case of Mobil 1 5W-20, so I used that.

The difference is what you are doing affects other people. It's not a situation of differing opinions; you are directly affecting other drivers. People will let it go when you do, but you're the aggressor.
#7656
Surprising how this is offending so many pussies.
Now,
#7657
Blinding other drivers is an aggressive act. It's not the pic, its the knowingly doing stupid things that interfere with other drivers.
#7658
looks really good man, love me some PD too And I like the red accent line on ur grill, good stuff!
#7659
I'm not a pussy and I'm not offended but as a neutral third party observer, you are being a classic aggressor. The original comment towards you was quite mild. Many people have differing opinions here and I don't think his comment was very insulting at all. You fired back calling his attitude douchey. You officially elevated the conversation at this point. When he came back with lots of facts, you gave a classic aggressor response Then you responded with more insults
Then you responded the way aggressors have been responding since Internet confrontations started, you played it off as if you didn't care a bit about it and that it was all this other guy who is so obsessed. The reason people don't just "let it go" is because people like you always want to have the last word and make it seem like they were some victim or something when in reality their point was jacked from the beginning. You were never right on this topic and you should have heeded your own advice to "let it go" with his original comment that upset you so greatly. Took me 5 mins to write this up so I have plenty of time left for the rest of my life. I'm pretty sure most of this will just go over your head and you'll respond with something like "geez, ok bro, just chill." Instead of debating logically. Good day.
