How to make my Fit look cooler non-destructively

Today I will be buying a white 2015 Fit LX. (In Canada)

On paper and for all practical purposes (gas milage, reliability, trunk space etc.) it is a solid pick but I have trouble getting past how ugly this car looks to me. I really hate it to be honest! But I am buying for practicality.

I have zero experience doing tuning/mods but I feel like for this car it is the only way to make it look less like a mini-mini van.

Some of the mugen mods I have seen actually make it look not bad. However as far as I can tell these are not available (or at least not to US market)

What can I do to make this car look better? Where are the accessories that are compatible with the US/Canadian versions? Non-destructive ways? (just bolting things on)?
e.g. spoilers, body kits, grills etc.

How about

Depending on your provincial restrictions (if any) imho window tinting really improves the look of a car.

I just recently bought the 2015 fit myself for practicality. I almost bought an F150 but decided against it due to higher cost and poor gas mileage. However I did want something great for cargo room. Hence, enter the fit. I understand your opinions about the fit, to be honest. I like the look of it, but not quite the quality of the body and paint.

Form follows fucking function.

If you've researched what's available on the market and decided the Fit was the exact best car for you, then that's cool right there. Own it. An accessory that helps it do something that you need doing is also cool.

"Upgrades" that don't actually upgrade anything... Do your shopping at KaleCoAuto. I recommend either their Cross Drilled Brake Lines or their Engine Oil Bypass Kit as your first upgrade.

I think the fit's pretty awesome already without mods. I have a yellow 2010 pure stock while my co-worker has a 2012 orange with body mods and they're still going gaga over my yellow stock when we park next to each other.

I like the OEM window deflectors I put on my '10 Fit. Actually useful and sharper looking than aftermarket.

Nope, still going to look like a micro van.

If you must, there's always those iVTEC/DOHC decals you can apply to the lower part of the rear doors. Make it a DIY Fit Si.
