What did you do to your GE fit today?
They're Projectors off an Infinti Q45. Purchased the headlamp assemblies off ebay. I believe I got one for like $200, the other for $300. I actually purchased another set of the lightly used Fit headlamps assemblies on here for $150. Sent them out to HID Illuzions to retro for me. $400-ish labor. But worth it! If you have the money, it's worth it. Visibility is great, you get lots of heads turning as well.
Sounds awesome. I'll definitely see if I can come check this out at the very least. MN is a little far from me(i live 6 hours north of Montana), but I might be in Ontario around that time already. Wouldn't be too far out of the way to make from there.
I guess you don't really need to add much to the fit to make it track worthy, but it Looks like you're adding something big to your set up now!
Those are q45 projectors. They're lo beam only xenon projectors. Despite what it looks like there's only a single bulb running the whole headlight. But they sure do look badass. They do sell those at the retrofit source and some other places.

When it comes in, Im ceramic coating it, installing an O2 sim, and driving on!!!!

I kept telling myself that i could make it through this ridiculous Chicago winter, but there's no end in site. I finally bit the bullet and got some proper snow tires: Bridgestone Blizzak WS70s. Should handle the snow and ice a little bit better than my bald Kuhmos.
Fit got all rained on last night, it was spotless after I washed it on Monday
Nice setup, any more pics?
Sweet, what exhaust are you running?
Do you guys run a lower PSI in the snow too?

That's a great question, Waizzz. I noticed they all looked underinflated right before I pulled out of the Sears Auto this morning. I wouldn't doubt it, as I've had nothing but problems dealing with those stupid asshats since having Tire Rack ship them my tires last week for installation. First they lost the tires, then they lost my wheels, then it took me three visits to get them installed. Four days, three phone calls and a two-hour wait later since they were delivered, they're on. I couldn't get out of there fast enough. I'm going to check and adjust them all tonight to 35psi and see how it feels.

That is terrible, sorry to hear you had to go through that.
Tire Rack recommends you run a higher PSI for winter tires, I could have sworn it was the opposite but their explanation makes sense to me:

Cold causes the air to condense right? So you'd need more psi than usual cause your "hot" tire psi will be less than usual compared to "cold" psi.
At least that's my logic.
Btw good choice on the tires. I was torn between these and the michelin xice 3s. Ended up getting the michelins.

Here's the scene in my driveway last week-
Wowzers!!
Installed my JDP rear duckbill spoiler.
Love the way it looks, but wish overall fitment was a bit better. It's not terrible, but not great. Especially where the bolt caps snap into. The stock caps would not fit without modification. Also, I wish the 3m tape was thicker as it would help hide the fitment imperfections and make for a tighter fit.
I'll post pics once I give her a good wash

fitment is always a worry. I got a carbon fiber roof overlay on my old 350z and it took some cutting to get it to fit right. it was still a like 1mm off after we were done with it though. It was worth the trouble, it got the most comments out of any of the other mods on the car.
