Default A few mods on my Harrier Hybrid

Just thought I'd share a few of the mods I've done to my 2006 400h.

Exterior:
- Wald Sports line lip kit
*front lip only fits the 330/ICE so this retrofit project is next on the list
- 19" Weds Maverick 110S Black Polish
- Eibach Pro Springs
- Rebadge with JDM badges (Harrier Hybrid)

Interior:
- Alpine W505 head unit with ipod video interface
- Alpine Blackbird bluetooth/navigation unit
- Alpine PDX 5 channel amp
- Infinity Basslink powered sub
- LED light replacements
- LED strips placed below doors
- Junction Produce starter kit
- Garson DAD shiftknob

Security:
- Python 592 with remote start
- Directed Electronics Smart Start system for Android/iPhone

Looking nice!
I have to say that i really like the rims. They are in perfect harmony with the rest and I almost never see rims that I do like. They are usually 'to much' for my taste.
It's lowered a bit right? How much? How does it handle compared with factory setup?

Any pictures you like to share of the audio install like amp and wiring?

Thanks. Its lowered. Specs say 1.5" but its closer to 2" after settling. Handling is much better, not exactly the same ride comfort as stock, but its not like riding a truck. No cabin roll when taking turns as well. Before the springs, every turn I made, no matter how slight, would result in cabin roll.

I will try and get some pics of the interior. Can't show the wiring because its all tucked and covered, but I can get pics of what I have installed in there. Deck, amp, sub, and lighting.

Junction Produce Starter kit is a Japanese ornamental rope and tassel hung by the rearview mirror, produced by Junction Produce.

As soon as I clean up the interior, I'll try and get some pics. I do have an old thread of my stereo and lighting. Not much has changed, except for the Infinity Basslink, Harrier doorsills, and Garson shiftknob.

WOWOWOWOW!

That is fantastic, once that front lip is on it will be gold! Very tasteful...

I'd suggest a nicer exhaust tip to match the kit/look of the RX though.

I'm working on upgrading my w505 to the new w900 system from Alpine. Once that's complete, I'll get some pics.

I'm debating whether to custom fit the 330 lip to the 400 or to just get an INGS+1 front lip. Still debating to go with air or get some coils. Might be running about the same price.

Thanks. I haven't really looked at exhaust tips but you are right. I might need to look into that. Any suggestions?

that kit is nice and simple, looks good on your rx. I was going to get this kit a long time ago but opted for something more aggressive.
