I know... right? hard to keep a theme and stay legit. oh well... it's not the first and not be the last. if you want to play, then you got to pay... I'm just glad I can and then some.

hmmm... why does it always have to be people with interesting (pun intended) parts who act smart?

I love my plate frame


anyway, last shot before installing a shiny new J's racing GT wing...

Yeah you definitely went with one of the more high end and pricey manufacturers of aftermarket GE parts! It's awesome tho, any naysayers are just jealous! Lookin forward to seein that wing on. Just curious, you still just on the Swift springs? Any plans on upgrading to coils anytime? Interested as to what brand and model you would put on...

You mean knockoff? That's what you said before editing, guess I wasn't supposed to see that though. I've been there blowing money on J's parts before with my old car, the thrill wore off soon though since they aren't worth it.

I have been looking at a few manufacturers but there's still one thing that keeps on nagging me (option wise)... hopefully I can make up my mind this year LOL.

btw... I'll be putting the swift springs and my wheels/tires up for sale soon. if anyone's interested, they're Work xd9 17x7 wrapped in Yokohama S.drive 195/45

Glad you think that. I'm sure that valvecover & airplane wing will increase performance dramatically.

I'm curious, why this attack out of the blue? Just because he likes expensive parts you have to go out of your way and make him out like a sucker? If he can afford it let him buy what he wants. You certainly can't say J's parts look bad! Quality parts are available for the Fit that are significantly cheaper but not THESE specific parts. Under your logic everyone should just buy Rotas even if they can afford a $2k set of wheels??? I just don't understand your motive here...

Cliffs: He angry at your ability to afford cool stuff.

This suspension/wheel setup better be rad.

No anger at all, must have woke up on wrong side of the bed.

But I just don't think there's many parts out their that's going to really improve the Fit is all. It's a pretty well sorted car...seems like if somebody has the $ to be blowing on J's parts that they'd have an s2000 or something. I've seen vids of J's s2000's & they are crazy.

Disclaimer: I'm perfectly fine with my Rotas, there's not a wheel design I like more & they are cheap to replace if I curb one or whatever since I have vision problems.

I love the J's tails. If I could afford it I'd get it in a heartbeat.
