Nerdsrock22: 2012 Honda Fit Sport Build Thread

I realized that I never really started a build thread, and though I've had this thing for a couple of years now, I figured I'd keep things organized here.

I bought this car from another Fit Freak member in January of 2013. The car had 10k at the time, and already had a few mods.



Long story short, here's where it is now:

Exterior:

Honda Modulo Fit Shuttle front garnish (3M carbon wrapped)
JDP rear diffuser
Type R badges (front and rear)
T1R shorty antenna
Wiper delete, shaved, and color matched rear garnish
Depot RS Style tails
Ceramic Tint (80%, 18%, 5%)
OEM window visors
Retrofitted front headlights with black reflector

Wheels and Tires:

Enkei 92 15x7 +38
BF Goodrich Sport Comp 2 195/55/15
Gorilla Automotive lug nuts

Suspension:

T1R Basic coilovers
Progress rear sway bar

Engine:

Spoon drop-in air filter
T1R S51 axle-back exhaust

Interior:
Mugen sport pedals
Mugen OEM shift knob
Mugen mirror cover
T1R shift boot

It is the 3M carbon. I actually had a local shop do it in town.

Maaan, you gotta include the specs on the retro. That LS460R that the previous owner did is gorgeous haha.
Keep it up, can't wait to see what else you have in store.

Ehhh...I have a love/hate relationship with these headlights. The wiring was god awful and they stopped working pretty quickly after I bought the car. I'd love to get rid of them.

Looks so good. I love how the GA plate looks on your car. Of course when I finally leave the state they get a decent looking license plate.

Wow, your car looks great!

How's the ride with the T1R Basics? There's not many reviews of them.

I have been pleased with them. The ride is relatively comfortable for coilovers, but I would appreciate a slightly stiffer spring rate. Overall, they make for a great daily driver setup.
