Here you go, freshly installed and tested. I will have to see how they do in daily use, but I like the look of them just sitting in the garage.

Looks great grtpumpkin

 

Thanks, 20 bucks shipped from WhiteFaceGauges.net (not a sermon, just a thought) The only downside seems to be that the icons not in the center display under the speedo are covered up by the overlays. So I has no cruise control or low fuel warning icons. I will know for sure after I drive it to work tomorrow....

 

I brought these lS Mechies just for shit and giggles. Sand blasted and powder coated. let me know what you think.

 

I almost traded it in yesterday for a mugen kit'd crz. the dealership was gonna give me 13500 for my 08 fit. The mugen crz was sick but its a 2 seater and i have a 2yr old kid, so not the most practical, but it almost happened. I was looking to pay 299/mo and that would be 45 less than the fit but when they got done trying to play their number games it woulda been 368/mo and I had no intention of giving up 3 seats for more money no matter how cool that car was. Then I read that the 2012 coming out later this year might offer a turbo model and more aggressive body kit like the mugen one. Glad I didn't let the fit go though. Only 3 more years til its paid off so maybe it'll be a good thing when I get to drive it with no car note.

 

Kids and Kar payments. I remember those days.

No Mortgage, No Car Payments and No kids at home. Yippee! Oh retired too so No work.
.

 

Wanna trade lol. I love the thought of being retired and hopefully still able to enjoy my hobbies and have lots of time and money to enjoy them, and a big family of course

 

Meshes look good. I had them white with red lip awhile back. Looks and offset are good on a fit. Nice color choice on that black too.
However i got to do it because I do it to everyone, dump that beeootchh

 

I second that. It's also nice not having a car payment. Once it's payed off, you can throw the normal car payment amount into service/maintenance or upgrades.

 

painted my bezels black a while ago. just installed my rack from my last car onto the fit.

before anyone says to lower it, skunk2's from Bthasht are on the way

 

ya ive thrown a house payment every month at my fit for the the past year in my upgrages.... ouch. but still ot paid off. it almost done though. i have like 3 more payments.

 

I installed yellow fog vinyls, blacked out my fog light housings, red brake caliper paint, removed the dealer sticker and installed Mugen style visors.

Other than than she only has tint, i'm just trying to make her a little more personalized and lightly modding it.

 

Saturday won Top 20 Trophy for our first 2011 Car Show - # 15 for the MR. This will be my last year to show it just too hard keeping a daily driver looking great. Seriously considering purchasing another Fit next year and do a total Mugen TW with CF hood and lower it, Mugen rims and make that my show car. Just too much fun showing the Fit that I don't really want to give it up. I will keep the MR as my oh so fun DD -

 

OK this looks so great! Love it!

 

Looks Fresh grtpumpkin what's it look like @ night?
And the CF around the gauges, Vinny's gunna what sum of that- lol.

 

Is it just me or do the gauges look off center, angled to the right.

 

The gauges do a little off, but it may be the camera angle. Still looks good though.

Drove over to Discount Tire to pick up the OEM tires for my uncle's car.

He hated how stiff the sidewalls were with those run flats as well as how loud they were and little grip they had.

 

Dig'n the gauge panel ya' got goin' there.....
The gauges are not off-centered, it's the angle. If you notice the gauge visor is not directly centered over the top of steering wheel which means the shot was taken from a little left of center.

 

look at the tach... the white space on the outside of the blue/red tach bar. That white space appears to shrink as you go up the scale. The bar does increase in thickness, but its more inward, than outward. So, the white space should appear even all the way around.

 

Yeah, yur right but, I think if the pic was centered then it wud not appear in that way tho.. I'm still dig'n it too!
