Need advice setting up my 2001 FIT

Hey guys im new to this site. I signed up so I could ask advice on how to setup my Honda FIT model 2001... I just like it simple and not really for show.

Its color grey and kind of dull.. I am planning to change the color.
and what I was looking at, is the Matte Black color.

Since you guys are the experts, I have a few questions

- Will Matte Black look good on a FIT 2001 model?
- Can you also recommend what kind of mags should I go with? 17in 16inch?
what color? what type? etc.
- What else do I have to add to make it look SIMPLE but with looks.
- Or could you send me some pictures of sample 2001 FIT?

i have a 2007 fit. i also think that matte black colour will look good in fit. and for the rims, i stick with stock vtec rims, otherwise, volk ce-28 15" is a good option maybe for your fit with lowering kit installed? cheers

You think so? because this is a 2001 Fit model. 2009 up is a more sharper look and I was researching cars that have a matte black color are the ones with sharper edgier look..

I hope this works. Because Im really going to have it painted matte black soon. Can you provide pictures of rims?

Thanks for your help

umm, is it the i-dsi? or vtec? i think you should go with a new vtec 2007 bodykit. it looks sporty and aggressive.
here is my fit with stock rims. how about super deep black spies hecker? it's very nice though in fit




here is volk ce-28



P.S : sorry for my bad english. i'm from indonesia hehe.
