Side skirts/rear bumper lip

Ok since I can't do just 1 mod at a time I'm looking for my next one already. Is there anything out there locally US available in regards to side skirts or rear bumper lip?? I liked the finished look the Fit Sport had compared to the base Fit in prior years and want a similar understated but upgraded look...

I'm thinking What he is looking for is a rear valance. also referred to as ground effects or a rear lip spoiler sometimes.

Just wanted to add... Don't get pin stripes lol my car had them on it when I got it and I just had the dealer take it off. Looks so much better with out them, the contours stuck out more.

Anybody heard anything from anyone? I'd like something with a subtle design not too flashy. It's just a Fit....

This always has been something that I couldn't wrap my head around.

It's like the designers & engineers completed their GK project and realized that they didn't factor in the muffler with the design of the rear bumper. It just hangs there under the bumper without the little groove that so many cars have now which gives them the look that says, "Yes, we knew a muffler would go here so we made a groove. Now go play."

Even the few aftermarket options out there don't address this. Maybe I'm just OCD.

Anyone know of anything out there for the GK similar to this?

This thread has been vacant for a while but wanted to bump as I found this on ebay:

USDM MUG CF Style Front Rear Lip Side Skirts Grille For Honda Fit Jazz 15-16 GK5 | eBay






Thoughts? Has anyone here tried these? It doesn't look like they're meant for the JDM model...

Have it sitting at home waiting for paint and mount. It arrives a bit rougher than that looks, but still a deal for the price.

Alternative: Mexican Fit rear bumper

As you might probably know by now, the JDM Fit has a different rear bumper (it's shorter and it flares out on both sides left and right where the rear splash/mud guards are). It gives the impression that there is a lip there but in fact, it's one piece. If you like this look, you could swap out your USDM rear bumper with Mexican Fit rear bumper. Mexican market has same rear bumper as USDM with only one exception that the Mexican version flares out where the rear splash guards are (exactly like the JDM version). I hope this helps.
