Thank you . I bought the carbon fibre wraps on Ebay. I took me several tries to get it right. Its very helpful if you have some one to help you hold and stretch it to get it on right.

I might have to give it a try sometime then Did you have to remove the interior panels to wrap them, if so are they hard to remove?

Yes you have to remove the interior panels to wrap them, Its not that hard,just time consuming.There is a how to on the forums that is very good.

Interesting, what does a license plate frame turned 180 degrees look like?

Car's looking clean ! I noticed the leather seats, are they an optional extra in your country, because I didn't have that option.. Would've gone for them if I could!

the leather seats are optional, but got it for free from my sales agent, same with the 3M floor mats, door visors and trunk tray.

Hi Ballistic, I noticed that you have a cover on your trunk, did you had it installed? If so, how much did it cost? I also got the 2011 polished Metal and there was no cover on the trunk. Thanks

Yep. I actually had it installed just recently. It cost me around 8.5K. Its actually the rear shelf for the Japan spec Jazz that is being sold right now. Its not the old one that needs to be attached to the rear seats

Thanks, Ballistic37. The back looks better and cleaner with the it. I should have them installed the shelf first instead of the spoiler.

no prob. ask your honda dealer about it. ive been told that the japan spec jazz being sold right now is just a temporary fix due to supply issues caused by flooding in thailand last year. once the factory becomes operational, honda will source the jazz and other vehicles from thailand again. so not sure if the rear shelf will be available then.

care to post pics of your jazz? just to help this thread get going.

I had the rear parcel shelf as standard equipment. My car came standard with cruise control, bluetooth and VSA.

Yeah datsmyboy, post up some pics so we can try get this thread going and build!

Update! Bought a K&N intake from the US so hopefully it'll arrive in 2 weeks. steering wheel emblem inserts and the fitfreak.net decal are also on its way! may also be painting the stock wheels black in the near future..!

EDIT: Also, https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/2nd-...oiler-mod.html and https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/2nd-...wiper-mod.html
