Yeah, cut the black thread at one end and kept pulling the black thread off while the red thread kept getting added. Gets repetitive pretty quick.

Really nice. Lovin' it!

Thinking about putting the Accord headlights back to stock an using the TSX projectors and HID kit on the Fit.

@webby , you have and shrouds for sale?

I think the only thing I have are a pair of mdx stock shrouds? I'm like 99% sure they look just like the ones below I found online....

They still have the clips and stuff on them like above. I pulled the projectors from a set of cracked headlights. All of the other mini shrouds and stuff sold with the h1 projectors.

Yeah, those are def MDX shrouds. I remember them when doing the retro on the Si with them. Don't think they will work since the bottom tapers in to much and won't cover enough of the projector.

If I had a bunch of spare money I would try to squeeze these bad boys into the Fit headlights. i have seen someone retro these into a Prius headlight.

Played with some red vinyl this past weekend. need to get a different vinyl since this one wasn't "red" enough. Prob will follow the body line on the next go round instead of going around/above the blinker/reverse light area.

Do you have a local source for vinyl or order online?

Disregard the strut bar I pm'd you. It's a pos.

Just ordered some cheap stuff from eBay....need to find a better company since I don't think the stuff I got is red enough. I have ~3 feet of the stuff left over if you want to play with some.

That is all for the older model and all the smoke color. I was thinking of putting a tint after doing the red but a light light smoke color.

Bringing the thread back to life.....

Who needs JDM parts on their Japanese car?

have you had your fit on the dragon with the stock suspension?

No but the amount of body roll I experience now does not make me happy. The springs should help.

I also won't be making any car part purchases for a long while. Wanted to get both looks and performance out of this purchase.

 

[Nomar06]

Forgot to mention....got rear ended last night. Nothing major since the old lady was going like 5 mph but I will prob need a new bumper.

One of the bolts behind the bumper cover cause a nice high spot and there is quite a bit of paint cracking right where the bumper turns down.

I had a big problem with my old EBC reds. Which ones are those?

 

[jrotax101]

I've used green, yellow and red and all of them suck. Haven't tried blue, but I wouldn't want to trust them on track to even try. meh.

 

[Nomar06]

I got the greens. Man, may be I should of gone with the StopTech pads....
