My BBS Red Emblem and Red Lug Nut just arrived,
The Lug Nut is very good quality, it even have a ring on the surface where it touch the wheel that can spin freely to reduce friction when tightening the Lug Nut.
Test Fit:
Can't wait for the rest of the 4 wheel to arrive next month...

Got new wheels, seems like its too much of a pain to have a shop transfer them from the stock wheels...and I can't stand that orange light.
I was going to use same type as the stock tpms, not sure how well aftermarket tpms will work, also you have to go to Honda to get them synced up to your fit.

When I got new wheels (and tires) the shop transferred the TPMS for free (maybe there was a TPMS reseal kit, I don't remember) and I think that's less of a hassle than buying new TPMS sensors all around, but it may prove to be beneficial in case you ever have to revert back to your other wheels.

Even if you bought a stock Honda TPMS,
As far as I know, you still have to sync it again to your car.
The only way you won't need to sync is if you transfer your current TPMS from the old wheel to the new wheel.
But if you do this, you need to buy a service kit (rubber seal, nut, core, etc) so it won't leak air.
There are 2 different type of aftermarket TPMS though,
the fully Programmable one like Schrader and (and non programmable) but ready for selected application like the VDO Redi.
If you buy Programmable one like Schrader EZ Sensor then you got to
have it PreProgram for your car (like what TireRack do before they ship
the TPMS to you),
or bring it to a shop that have Device to Program it to recognize
the Honda TPMS system.
and after that you still have to SYNC it with your specific car TPMS system by plugging a sync device to the OBDII port.
In our case Schrader EZ sensor 33000 or 33500 (315Mhz) will fit for Honda Fit.
while the non programmable one like VDO Redi is already program from factory (and non programmable again) fix for your car specification.
in our case VDO Redi SE10002 (315Mhz). but even VDO Redi
still need to be SYNC with your specific car TPMS system before
it can work again by plugging a sync device to the OBDII port.
Anyway, since you buy the Honda TPMS,
perhaps it is best if you try tire shop like Discount Tire
to sync your new TPMS to your car, (like I did)...
I think it will be much cheaper then going to Honda dealership
This is the Service Kit that you need to transfer a Honda OEM TPMS system:

They are aluminum, I have heard some stories of aluminum seizing onto the studs under extreme pressure and that they should only be hand torqued because they can strip if using an impact gun. But we will see, didn't feel like paying $80+ for lugs.

I have been slowly 'touching up' the numerous stone chips on the Jazz bonnet (thats the hood to everyone over the west side of the pond)
Got a great kit from Chipex which is shed loads better than the 'normal' touch up paints, though it is labour intensive to get it right.
Before and after pics to follow once I have finished the whole bonnet. Paint chips are like weeds. You see one, pull it out and then find loads more.
