Thanks! I've been having mixed feelings about my rims lately, but I'll probably stick with them until I can afford a new set

One of the only recent shots I have:


I'll take some more when I have the chance. Still have parts waiting in the garage to be painted.

Not really the path I'm looking to go down haha.

I smoked the sidemarkers and yellow'd out the fog lights. I don't know if I like them or not, they were "holy fk I'm bored" mods.

^ Ignore that picture. I took all the vinyl off later that day.

New mods!
-Duckbill spoiler (not JDP, it's from a group buy back a couple years ago)
-Color matched rear garnish, along with the wiper delete
-Going to do a couple small details, then I'm saving up for another big mod.

^ Bought it off a local who was parting out his car. The only way to track down another one is to keep an eye on the classfields. Other than that, the closest one is the one made my Seibon. The JDP is much larger than this one.

Looking good with all the mods.I like the duckbill and it flows nice.

I looked back on my earlier post in this thread and had to laugh.I said I was not lowering my car well that did not last long because I'm on Swifts now with Progress RSB.

I did stick with the stock wheels but wrapped them with 205/50/16 Kumoh Ecsta 4X

You have a good eye for what looks good on these cars and all of your mods are clean as hell.

Thanks man, appreciate it.
Your mods are more for making the car handle better, mine are just to make the car look good haha. I told myself I was going to take a break modding the car after the coilovers, but the spoiler / garnish project definitely wasn't cheap
And, since I rolled without an alignment for a week, my front tires got completely chewed up from the toe being so off. That, combined with the fact that I don't want the 17s anymore, means I'm making another big purchase once I have the money for it -__-

Thanks! Trying my best haha. I just wish there were more options for the 2012 bumper, especially for a grille. Seems like JDP is MIA for the lip as it is. Mugen makes one, but at $600 w/o shipping is steep for me.

According to 555, the Fit Shuttle shares the same front end as the 2012. (Plus, they look identical so I'm 99% sure he's correct).
無限 | FIT SHUTTLE | フィット シャトル | PARTS | Aerodynamics
I got a price quote from AJ-R, $805 for an unpainted front lip and $615 for the grille, non-hybrid version. I say we get JDP to make a replica of the Mugen. I'm having trouble justifying $615 for just a grille.

I'm not sure if I'm going to sell them when I take them off. It won't be for awhile, I still need to save up $1300 for my new set.
