NHBP Sport w/ Base hatch (pics)
 

Swapped hatches with a Base Fit owner to lose the spoiler. Finally got the tint done last weekend (limo) so here are some pics. There aren't very many pics on FitFreak of Sports going spoilerless so I wanted to contribute. ;) Sorry about the picture quality, it's not the best.

:confused:Why?

Not feeling the spoilerless, but the paint looks nice! No spoiler makes it look more like a minivan.

yeah i'm under no illusion that this will be popular amongst the FitFreak crowd overall. there are some people here who just don't like spoilers and I happen to be one of them. I see the minivan thing too, I prefer to see it as a wagovan thing. I used to have a Base Fit which was totaled and I always have preferred the smooth upper rear end it has without the spoiler there.

anyway, on with the confusion...

So, did you also get the key for the base hatch lock?? :)
'07 VBP Sport 5MT w/minor appearance & comfort mods!!

It's your ride and noboby else's. Props for doing what you want.

itll grow on ppl dude dont worry i kinda like it and props for doin it cuz ive been waiting to see someone do this and on black! lol well done dude

not feeling it. definitely looks like a miniature Odyssea van from the rear.

definitely has a major soccer-mom van feel to it dude. Gotta say.

why didnt u just take out the spoiler instead of swapping the whole thing?

looking goode dude... are u going to drop the car anytime soon

Haha, no. We both have keyless entry otherwise it wouldn't have worked out very well. Honda quoted me ~$200 to swap out the lock mechanism to match. I think I'll be waiting a while before I decide to do that. No reason.

I tried taking the spoiler off first. It leaves 5 holes that are troublesome / expensive to cover up. Swapping w/ a base hatch leaves a much cleaner look, on the cheap.

Not really planning on it but if my GF has anything to say about it I will.

Thanks for the replies, everyone!

aiight cool...

Agreed! I kinda like it too, it just takes a little time to get visually used to it. Nice mod and unique, and maybe you might get slightly more mpg.. hehehe :D I was actually thinking of maybe doing this myself also.

+reps

not feeling it, looks way too funky in the rear without a wing. But props anyways for being different

Wingless FTW!

Wow i remmeber helping out with this swap.

yeah, just DUMP it and it'll look like the Spoon Fit... and do a JDM conversion and get some SW's :D

what i really want is to import a jdm w/ cvt tranny and all the goodies. :D

watch, he'll have a duckbill in a few weeks...

;)

tight! spoon style! I have a base so this is how mine would look if i bought a sport aero kit from someone. good job! Option Wagon FTW!
