I know this has been discussed in here before, but is there anybody willing to make custom business cards for FitFreak? This way, we can attract more people into our community every time we see one parked. Just wondering, but I think it's a lost idea and wanted to bring it back up.
I honestly think this is a excellent idea.
I think it would really be worth it to the site to go through with a buisness card idea.

No more Crotas. . .
if they're not already on here then i doubt they care enough to join. i see grips of fits daily, maybe around 5, and 0 have any mods. barely 1 out of those 5 even have tint. i'll talk to people i see with fits and 99.9% of the time they DGAF about cars. they either care about a nice car they can afford and/or mpg. the fits sudden spike in popularity is a direct result of the economy. most of us on here are students, another good portion are young families just starting out and i'd say the others are older folks who may have been into cars when they were younger before they started families and now that kids are gone downsizing from larger vehicles and know a great car when they see one.
so, no, i don't think fitfreak.net requires a need to print biz cards. if you ever happen to see a nice fit that you don't already know then just leave a note keep a pen and some junk receipt paper trash envelope in your car.
Honestly, these things sometimes work, but are usually more annoying to the people who receive them. I think the internet is pretty standard these days and so are forums, so if they want to, they will find us!

i think they would benefit the site if used correctly... obv. not in an obnoxious way, maybe put sumthing witty in the card... im not creative enough to come up with anythign right now but if some one can come up with a complimenting catch phrase that might works idk just my 2 cents lol

oh and I am getting 45 mpg!
*shrugs* I'm 50/50 on it. I hate when people put things on my car, but at the same time, it's because 99.5% of the time, it's crap that doesn't pertain to me. A Fit owner getting a card about a Fit board might not be quite so irritating.
That said, when I see another Fit on the road, I try to get ahead of them a bit...just so they can see the FitFreak.net sticker on my back window. In fact, I saw a nice base MR Fit yesterday on my drive home on I-465 here in Indy. Driven by a younger guy with tint, so I wonder if I made an impression on a future FitFreaker?

If you want a forum primarily for young folk who mod their Fits then I think those folk are already here or will find it on their own.
I think that cards would be useful if you want to attract stock Fit owners to the site. I am one and I find it a useful resource. However I also find the attitude on the board somewhat insulting at times. Clearly the majority here are young men who like to mod their cars. Many posts come with an attitude that stock Fits are just owned by old people who aren't worth the time of day. Many posts include "cool" gamer slang which is difficult to interpret for those not so inclined. To attract and keep a wider base of fans those issues would have to be addressed.
leaving stuff on peoples car is always a back and forth subject... IMO it would be cool to let people know that this site is available for them but then agian.. if someone really has a "Love" for their fit they will find this site... all i did was google honda fit forums and it was the first on the list...
Business cards would be okay for handing to people, but not for putting on windshields. There's always someone putting crap on the cars where we go dancing on Fridays. I pull it off and crumple or drop it without even looking at it.
I make my own business cards with a color laser and a cutter. It would be cool to have a standard FitFreak template available, in a Word/OpenOffice or Publisher format. I'd be willing to do a little work on that.
FTR, I'm 47 and planning on modding my Fit for mpg and handling. I'm also designing some airbrush art for the sides.

+1. And the effing fact that if it is humid outside and then dries out the damn car sticks to the window and leaves ish on it when you remove it. That happened to me last week and I was pissed!

That is because stock fits are owned by old people duh!!!!!!
Fricken old people!!!!! JK....
Anywho...
I would be pissed if anyone put anything on my car. Even if it was a site where I could find more info about my car I would probably come to the site and flame it to death because I would be so pissed that someone stuck some car on my car.
