Hey all,

I live in the Ottawa area, and I have been seeing tons of Fits around.. Just wondering if there are any clubs or meets for Fit Owners in the Ottawa area.

Thanks alot!

Holy, I am depressed.. Is there NO ONE from Ottawa on this site?? There is a really nice Fit on Craig Henry Dr. off of Greenbank..It is a Sport in Orange. Super nice car..

Ottawa people common!

One here!

Sadly, I don't check the Canadian forums often. I suspect most of the people I see behind the wheels of Fits bought it because it was a nice, economical car, not because they are excited over it like we are.

I myself wouldn't mind some sort of meet, but I've just got a basic LX trim... no mods, nothing, and I'm not exactly a car enthusiast so I've not been keeping her clean.

I am right there with you man. I have a LX aswell, no mods or anything.. I am a student, so i dont have the money to mod, I want to get alloy's and tint as soon as possibe, but that might not be for a year or so lol.

Where are you located in Ottawa, you can PM me if you want.

Hey man,

People from Hull are welcome too!

What model of Fit did you get? the Base, LX or Sport? And what colour is it?

Did u get the trucks plate #? That could be an insurence issue.

I wish i could, but there was too many trucks in front of me to find who it was...and I dont think ull stop on the 40 highway in montreal to get the board as evidence. But I still take the exit right after to check if I had any leaks but it looks like its only the bumper...but I have to check if the supports are damaged too!

Nice profile pic! I'm trying to figure out where in the Ottawa area you took it, but I'm coming up blank.

Do you live on the Quebec side (no plate on the front)?

rushlow · #12 (**permalink**) 09-12-2008, 12:06 AM

Actually that picture was taken in Calgary, Ab when I was living there.
I droooooove all the way out to Ottawa when I moved here.

zukered · #13 (**permalink**) 09-12-2008, 12:29 AM

Ah, I see. I was going to ask whether you lived on the Quebec side since you didn't have a front license plate.

I also suppose there's no point asking you where in Ottawa you got your windows tinted

rushlow · #14 (**permalink**) 09-12-2008, 07:22 PM

lol yeah, it was done in Calgary.

rushlow · #15 (**permalink**) 09-15-2008, 11:20 PM

Hey I was wondering what any of you are doing for rust prevention.
I was thinking of coating my wheel wells with some rubber spray stuff...
Another member did this ( http://www.fitfreak.net/forums/fit-y...t=rubber+spray ) it looks good.

I've also heard of getting the underneath of the car sprayed with some anti rust product (Krown).
Has anyone had this done?

Vain · #16 (**permalink**) 02-23-2009, 02:49 PM

I'm from Ottawa as well. Been on these forums on and off but came across this.

I have a 2007 Blue Sport thats lowered with some mods to the motor and overall apperance to the car. (lights, tint, etc...)

Heres some pics

rushlow · #17 (**permalink**) 02-24-2009, 01:58 PM

Nice car! looks good. I don't think I've seen u driving around at all... I only see stock fits.

Vain · #18 (**permalink**) 02-24-2009, 02:07 PM

I'm around all over the place but since its winter I only go out if I have too but when summer rolls around I'm out all the time. I'm mostly around Marivale Rd area and the main streets around there.

Just look for the yellow fog lights at night. Thats when everyone knows its me driving around

rushlow · #19 (**permalink**) 02-24-2009, 02:17 PM

ahaha niiiiiice. I was on Merivale rd just an hour ago lol.

rushlow · #20 (**permalink**) 03-12-2009, 03:01 AM
