If you don't know how to drop your car 100%(install spring's)Then it is a must to go to a reputable(aftermarket/tuner) shop.I tried to get a drop a few year's back,and no regular shop(Tire Kingdom)would do it around here because of liablity reason's.They won't take the chance of a bad part someone might have picked out and install it,because there(rightful so)afraid of lawsuit's.I can't stress enough of a good shop.When I found one(I thought they where good)they shoot my shock's down the road(that's 1 reason why you need to know how to do it)and put 1 spring in UP-SIDE DOWN! As for ride quaility,it should handle better,but it will be firmer over bump's if you encounter them day in day out.I HIGHLY RECOMMEND COILOVER'S AND ADJUSTABLE CAMBER KIT(i think a must).I know other member's say there's are fine,and that's good,but all high end tuner car's(and shop's)alway's change the whole set-up.And from my experience,my shock's went in my 94 Integra in about 4-6 month's.Sorry so long.

Trust me,Iknow about about bad shop's here in Florida.I have ton's.As for companies selling coilover's(1)Megan(2)Tein(3)Skunk2(4)Buddy Club(5)Ksport(6)D2 Racing Sports...and I think HKS(not sure)but they would be great.Hop Up Racing - 350z, wrx, sti, 240sx, evo, scion tc, s2000, cold air intakes, springs, coilovers, exhausts, headers, boost controllers has a very good selection for the Fit.

Looks great. The stickers on the sides mess up the cleanliness though. And from what I noticed you dont have matching stickers.
Mod list is nice. And the car looks great!

I think it looks fine as is, just the stickers. As for removing them... Pull them off slowly. They should come right off. Dont scrape them with anything.
I think the tire size looks fine, I noticed you mention something about that. What size are they?

I think Illusive was refering to the fact that he put "15' wheels" not "15" wheels." ' stands for foot, " stands for inch. So he said he had 15 foot drag wheels.
-sorry for the confusion didn't mean anything about it.. yup i forgot about that " and ' have different meaning i was typing to fast.. thanks..

It depends on the color of the car. Lighter cars look best with lighter tint. I think darker cars look best with dark tint. So it doesnt play with the eyeball. Light car, dark tint. Basically makes you look at the tint the whole time and say "Damn, thats some dark tint."
With BOM, Id go 35% all around. Max would be 20%. All tint is different remember and you cant judge tint darkness in pics.

I use to get bothered in my Mx-6 a lot. But the car is what gets the attention. My Mx-6 use to have a loud exhaust. Anytime I got pulled over I always got a tint and exhaust ticket. It has 5% tint. Hehehh
I got pulled over in my Fit for speeding. They gave me a tint ticket also. I have 15% all around.
My moms tC has 15%, shes never been pulled over for tint. Her car is also lowered with a TRD exhaust. But its not loud. I dont think cops stop you just for tint. It would have to be for some other bullshat reason, then they end up giving a tint ticket so they feel big about doing something that doesnt take much of their time.
