Depending on the swift diameter-- I'm pretty sure the Function & form one works too I don't know which one's cheaper but I know F&F sells it separately too

Thanks for the heads up though Wais! I might be getting that with swifts so I can go lower or raise it up if it's too much lol.

Ordered a Spoon throttle body and found out an order I thought was cancelled was just sent. New ProjectMu stainless brake lines in smoke jackets. The current green jacket Mus are doing alright, but already 5 years old, so wanted to refresh. Yet, still waiting on my car, please J's contact me soon to let me know I need to jump on the Shinkansen and come get it.

Just ordered the gas pedal only from SRP Racing - Custom Aluminum Racing Pedals (the ones sold on the Zeta site). I already have the Honda sport pedals installed, but I want the wider gas pedal for heel-toe. Just called up SRP and dude was super cool and said sure I can get just the gas pedal. If you're interested, just place an order for the BRZ gas pedal only since he has that listed, then just shoot him an email on the contact page of the site with your details and that you want the Fit gas pedal instead of the BRZ. Can't wait, and you can't beat $39.50 shipped for a custom machined pedal cover.

Ordered some hood struts, too. With my shoulder the way it is, it's really an accessibility thing.

If I'd seen those ones it would have been. Didn't see them in my search. I bought off eBay, so I get some TDM specials. Half the price, though. I think Mighty Car Mods used the same ones on Moog's S2000, and they seemed to be just fine.

Taiwan domestic market. http://m.ebay.com/itm/301347045203?nav=SEARCH
$54.99 plus shipping in USD. Quite a bit more Canadian. I miss when our dollars were par.

Edit: I have no idea why it thinks that is a video link.

Warmer temps ahead and I think we are finally done with snow, so I decided to change out my snows for my SSRs and put on the Project Kics 10mm wheel spacer for the rears. Everything was going well, applied anti-seize on the hubs, but when I got to the rears to put on the wheels, I have a gap between the hubspacer and the wheel itself. The damn oem bolt sticks out too much and the cavity behind the wheel is not deep enough for the oem bolts to sit flush. I think I need to get a a 3mm or 5 mm spacer. I didn't have a ruler to use. Anyone know how long the oem lug bolt is?

edit: I ordered a pair of 3mm and 5 mm universal spacers. I hope the 5mm is enough.

Or just ditch the bolt on spacers and do extended studs. That's what I did on my rears for my 10mm spacers. It's more work, but it's not that hard and way worth the peace of mind.

BMW ALPINA or RYU Help! I'm installing right now!

I am installing the modulo lips (no instructions included) and I can't figure out where the metal U shaped brackets go?

I think they go in between the bumper and lip but where?

Thanks!

Hi sorry for late reply,
I just PM you back,
Yes, I think you are talking about the metal that will grip the screw...
you suppose to screw into that metal, so that metal must grip the original bumper... you slide it into somewhere behind where the screw should go
