where did you find those tail lights? I've been looking around and I cant find them. I must not be looking right

 

I picked up my set from a local member. There's some sets on sale for here on FitFreak, just keep your eyes open!

 

New pics

 

Two more!

 

Looks awesome!!!! I keep going back and forth on keeping my stock wheels or going aftermarket like you.

I actually like the stock 2012 sport wheels but then I see your car and well

I have yet to see a modded Fit here on the Westside of L.A. but I'm sure I will soon enough.

 

loved your 09 GE8...

I got a 2011 GE8 in vortex blue with a 5 speed. so far i only put 6k hid, yellow fogs, led plate lights. i wanna go jdm rs. im mostly looking for the tail lights right now. next change is mugen shift knob or jdm hazzard switch..any suggestions on where to find those lights???

 

Drop it like it's hot!

 

Drop it like it's hot! Looks good though...

 

I just can't get over the direct profile of the Fits there, damn that snoz is enormous. The larger Fits here also come with this front end, but with the extended rear it doesn't look as goofy to my eyes.

Sorry, not downplaying your car as all the North American models are this way, doesn't look bad at certain angles at all, but directly from the side...ugghhhh NA and its ridiculous standards.

Glad you weren't hurt and decided to jump back in a Fit, though an autotragic... hahaha I kid, if it works for you then it's all good.

 

aaand now I want base tails.

 

If you're not going to drop it, stick with the stock wheels. I think it looks a bit goofy on 17's without a drop, but I have to wait til July to do that
I don't see many modded Fit's by me either, I think I've spotted two or three in the last 8 months haha.

Thanks, my 09 is dearly missed lol.
There are a couple people on this forum that sell them from Thailand or where ever, it'd probably be easiest to go through them. If not Depo makes a replica of them.
JDM RS Red Taillights
Just be sure they are in stock, I got stuck in a 5 week wait until I just asked for my money back and got a real set.

If I could've dropped it by now I would

It does look kind of disproportional, but contrary to you I think the rear bumper balances it out a bit. Even the 2012's over there still have a shorter front end, the design just looks similar. I think the 2012 US front ends look much better than the 2009-2011 though.

I don't mind the automatic, no matter what auto vs manual debate you get into. It works for me personally, and the paddle shifter system is pretty nice. I do miss the feeling of heel toeing and double clutching though :/

Base tail lights + TW = sex!

 

Hello FittedOnEm

Do you know the weight per wheel of your Momo Revenge?

Thanks



Thanks

 

That JDP Rear Diffuser is looking good.

 

No I don't, sorry

thanks for the info...im new into building and my friend who has a dc2, wont let me get any non factory jdm parts..i want the clear ones not the red lights. you got any other suggestions i should do to my ge8?

 

I'm not sure where to source out the clear ones, sorry man.
As far as other mods go, do what YOU want to do to it. Get the mods that you like, not what everyone else goes for just to fit in. I can appreciate a build much more when the owner isn't so concerned about everyone else's opinion of their car, brings out more personality.

Anyways, as far as my Fit is concerned, I've decided to leave it at stock height until I can afford coilovers (lol it's going to be awhile). Since it's just my daily and it's an automatic, I might as well just roll low and slow haha. Here's a photoshop of where I want it to ideally sit:



By my guesstimate, that's about 2.8" lower than stock.

 

Looks great! Its nice to see someone else modding a 2012. I like the wheels alot! My only suggestion would be to ditch the front plate...idk i think it just looks horrible on these cars. When I got mine from the dealer I told them to not put it on. They were a little confused lol.

 

I'd rather have it on and not have to deal with the fix-it ticket, especially since I have my front windows tinted already (illegal as well). I don't think the plate looks that bad lol.

Washed it again today, took a couple pics.

 

^^^ nice! I noticed you debadged it. I did that to mine, too. For some reason it looks better and cleaner to me.

 

Agreed, I was thinking about leaving it on but it looks much better without it. I might do the JDM wiper mod again, not sure though.
