I have been shopping tails lately, and I am torn between these and the Axis ones (probably the smoked style). May I ask where you bought your 12 JDM LED's? And how happy are you with them? Obvi they are OEM Honda so the quality to me would be expected to be better than the Axis ones. They are so clean looking.

Your car is amazing! Nice to see some other Georgia Fits representing so well. Great job

Axis began to look ugly/tacky to me. I had these brought over from Taiwan.

damn the retro fit gonna look sick! yours wheels did come out nice as well! i like the shaved wiper mod, looks clean.

any reason why you chose Swift springs over coils? just curious...i wanted Swift but a 1" drop just wasnt enough for me...cant wait for wheel shots on your car!

Thanks for the kind words!

The swifts are a decent spring and better than the H&R Sports I had previously (based on reviews).

I don't care to slam my car but instead beat on it so springs are plenty. When i can out-drive the spring rates, I'll go coils.

I decided to go JDP Front/Rear to save a bit of money while still having a unique look.

Thumbs up

Yup, if your not going with coilovers, there's only one choice... Swifts!
Thought you were going with the Bilsteins at one point.

I was gonna get the Swifts, but for a while now I've been contemplating the Bilsteins vs. the new Swifts/Koni setup. I was set on Bilstein, but then the Koni's came up.

Finally saw a set of LS460's on the road yesterday... wow, I must get those eventually!!!! I need them badly
Hey are those the new LED's you were talking about a few months ago? I saw TRS has the new LED rings (not the horseshoe ones though).

That's them. I basically used 100mm rings and disabled some of the LEDs.

Through JDP directly. Diffuser is on their site, but the front lip is still being built.

A lot of these parts came from the last two Fits.
