I am making the car the way I want it to be for myself to be happy with. I actually enjoy the car and think it's pretty fun to drive as it is right now.
Your right it's your car YOU pay for it nobody else. Be happy and enjoy your purchase.
Are you going to put the gt bumper on or cut it for the dual setup?

More power, better handling, better suspension, better wheels/tires, better looking exterior(gfx, graphics, hood scoops, spoilers, bumpers, fog lights, etc) and better resale
so in other words, you don't understand modding at all.
you're on a website where people buy economy cars and dump thousands of dollars into them for more performance/unique looks.
Catback should be here tomorrow!!!!

Yes I understand modding.
My point in the j body world would be why would someone buy a 2200 auto cav and dump a bunch of money into it for performance upgrades, when you could just buy a z24 or ls sport for a little more money and have a better car in general. Same thing with a v6 vs v8 camaro, mustang, etc

good god why? the 1/4 windows are the most ugly attribute on all of the 05-present mustangs... unless of course they have the louvers LOL
and jesus man you change cars more than a used car dealer.

I choose the technology built for land speed records... not the technology built to save on emissions and gas mileage.
It arrived!!!!! Should be going on the car monday.

Exhaust is on and i'm happy with the sound though fitment sure sucked to say the least, had to take over 3" off of the pipes and tweak the hangers so that they didn't rattle. I am not a fan of how far the tips hang out, but hopefully a GT rear bumper will aid that some.

Sounds nice. V6, V8, who cares. As long as you like it.
2010 Honda Fit LX
So this is how the car started out today
Then some how it ended up like this, not too sure how in the world this happened????
Then for some strange reason the car turned into this. I really like this!!!!!

springs? looks good dropped, along with the vinyl removal.
That looks great! Good call on the vinyl removal as well, Nice!
I was going to remove the badge on the fender as well till I found out that it will leave 2 holes in the fender.

keeping in mind that one of the higher hp cars on this forum is in fact a 2200, it's because people like to think outside of the box. some people like a challenge as opposed to just buying something "fast."
new ride height looks perfect. which struts did you pair with the sportlines? I'd love it if my vert sat like that. How's the ride?
Right now they're on stock struts and shocks, but it's either gonna get Steeda's or Ford Racing Struts and shocks. The ride is a little bouncy since it's still on stock struts, but not as bad as you would think. I just drove it 75 miles today and it wasn't too bad surprisingly.

Is it just me? Or does that spoiler not work with the lines of the car at all.
I think it's because I need the hood and ground effects kit to tie it all together, the spoiler isn't for everyone but it's my favorite out of all the spoilers offered for the car.

love the roush wing. i almost went that route on my vert, but opted for the gt500 wing instead. i just couldn't bring myself to drill through the quarter panel to mount the outer portions of the roush wing.
Yeah I measured a whole bunch of times and was very thorough before I made the holes. I just need the cervini's 2.5" cowl hood, and the 3dcarbon pony 4pc ground effects.
