Thanks for the writeup and accompanying pictures, this helps a lot. -2 degrees camber sounds good, I don't really want to run much more than that. My wheels are 17x7 et37, so I might be able to cut it close with my 205/40s with a decent roll and pull. I should probably know what this is, but what do you mean by front bumper tab? Is it simple to cut or did you need powered cutting tools?
While that definitely deserves it's own thread, you guys bring up a good point. I'm all about having more quality and legit parts (ignore the fake Bride seats lol), so if something is worth it, I'd rather save up to get something a bit better. I may have a chance to pick up a used set of HKS S-Style X later this year, so I'd be going from lowest springs to lowest coilovers lol.

HKS Hipermax S-Style X Coilovers HONDA FIT 2009 - 2012 80120-AH206
They do go low, but rear spring rate is higher than the BC N+ tho so you'll have an even harsher ride.

Also better damper/spring pairing will lead to good ride.

^Thanks for the good info, but what then holds the bumper to the fender after cutting off that tab I wonder?
Some more recent stuff, trying to take my photography to the next level.

Is there any way to turn off this minimized photos feature now? Really annoying that you have to click on each one to see it in full quality, not sure why this site necessitated the change.

Some recent pics. No new changes and there may not be any until next year, going to just enjoy it as it is now and focus on paying it off first. The seats are out now, and the Axis tails are sent off for repair/replacement, a few LEDs had gone out. Onto the good stuff:
Crashed a Club RSX meet lol

Thanks guys, they were Vios 3 reps, just sold them to a friend. I do miss having them though, they really did hold you in great in corners, they just weren't very comfortable.

Thanks, we found that thing randomly one night in front of some "Armored Storage" place and just had to get a shot of it, was way too cool to pass up lol.
