35% window tint today.. I'll get some pics this evening.

Monday next week I should have my wheels in. Pics that evening too.

I have no idea where/when the tail lights and visors are gonna be in.


I'm still kinda iffy with my GF210s. The front driver's side makes a pop when you move foward from a stop. Makes a small popping sound. The black plastic coil that you use to wrap the springs with, to stop the noise, I think is making the noise. I ran out of that stuff on the passenger side. The driver's side has it covered as Per instructions. I took the wheel off yesterday and made sure all the nuts and bolts are tighten up. Everything looks good. I'll have to remove one of the black plastic coils off of the spring and see if it makes a different. I think the center ones are binding. I hope it's that!!! It only does it when I move forward which means, when the front lifts up, the thing pops. If anyone has any idea, please let me know. It's rather annoying.

Funny,, I asked discount tires here if they carry Hankook tires and they said no. I guess they was trying to sell me the Falken tires.

Damn I had my camera setting wrong.. White balance is too bright!

But here is the tint pictures I took along with my new 2.6 meter Discus R/C Scale Sailplane. Gotta sport that FitFreak.net sticker!

I'll get better photos tomorrow or Monday.

Enjoy!

I just took it to the tint store.. Never asked any other tint stores cuz the one I went to is supposed to be the best store out there.

Sh!t..$129 for a tint job is expensive as far as I know. Mine got tinted all around with industrial 35%, tends to change dark appearance sometimes btw. It cost me $85, but I guess + $250 for the goddamn tickets...yes, for a f-ing 35% tint. So literally, its me who got assviolated
btw..your bumper looks like if it was photoshoped off.

There was a tint thread on here.. I think under $150 was the average cost.

I figured out my front end popping sound. I didn't torque down my passenger side lug nuts! stupid me. one fell off and I thought someone was trying to steal my wheels.

Anyway,, here's the shots of my Fit with 16x7 Countersteers. PIMPIN!!!!! I think I'm gonna have to order the DF210 springs and just use the front springs off of it cuz there is still a gap. But I'll wait to see if they will settle.. if not.. I'll get another set of springs.

The place I ordered my wheels from, they forgot to put my anodized gorilla lugs in the box so I went to discount tires and got a set of tuner lugs. It's the short ones with the threaded hole all the way through. I like these. I bet they are harder to get off than the regular lock nuts. since they're short and they go all the way in the lug hole.

Enjoy!!! I'm still waiting on tail lights and visors..

I didn't read all of it as I did the other day but forgot, are those the stock tires? Reason being is because as you saw my car in my lowering post, the GF210's tuck the stockers nicely. I don't know why yours looks different unless they are a lower profile. I should have the new Skunk2 springs on this weekend or so and hopefully my new Work Emotion CR Kai's...So I will post pics if they have a gap or not.

Looks good.

Kris

Thanks guys,

Kris,, if you're talking about the stock wheels, then yes they were stocks. The fronts weren't even near tucked under the fender wells. Neither the rears. But I like the way the rears are seated right now. The gap between the wells and the tire are closed all the way. I wouldn't mind it tucked under but I hate the fronts!! BTW My konigs are 16x7s.

Fits_all, they are 45s. I thought about cutting the coil but I don't want to ruin them. I'm sure they won't get ruined but still, I gotta wait for these springs to settle. I remember my brother cutting his front Eibach springs on his because of the same situation. If I can remember, they were cut about 2.5" inches off. I guess if I do decide to cut them, a regular dremel tool with a cutoff wheel will work?? I really want that gap on the front gone!!!

nah man...get it done by someone who has powerful tools..maybe a machine shop(thats how theyre called here) make them cut for example half coil on one spring..then the piece they cutted(spelling?) should be put aside with the non-cut one and meassure it well to cut it similar as the other one
(I feel like im talking giberish english sorry) hope I gave you a clear ex. how its done here, and tends to work out with people.

settle down...and; let the springs settle a lil bit too...

Some more pics.. I took these 30 minutes ago..

Your ex. is clear. I like to do my work myself. So I'm sure I can find some sort of tool to cut the springs. I will check and see after a while. Let these springs settle and I'll figure it out later.

gotta hand it to you that you made good choices on mods by far. Even though, I do think springs should go lower for a better look(looks good as it is now,said b4)

oh and, ill stop replying so much in this thread lol
