Any foreign fits have black headliners?
I'm wanting to recover my headliner in Alcantara but the problem then becomes all of the trim bits being beige. Did a foreign-market GE Fit come with a black headliner?

The oh sht handles come in black from other Honda's (here in the US). I have the part #'s on a spreadsheet (which I have to search for) if you need them. Even the one with the coat hanger (comes in black), actually bought that one since we only have 1 from the factory (so now I have 2 rear w/coat hanger hooks).
Not sure about the dome light, but if you do the Acura Homelink mod on the maplights, those consoles are also available on ebay (in black). For the dome I'm not sure about.
I think that leaves the mirror which should also be available in black from other Honda models, but maybe not the same exact mirror.
Ohhhh, and that little plastic cover for the baby seat. (maybe try off an RDX/MDX).
I've been researching this for a while since I'm also going to wrap my headliner (black leather), whenever I get the sunroof installed.

Your other option is to pull every little piece out and use interior dye to change it. I also hate the beigish/tanish/grayish color that almost all auto manufactures have gone to for the top half of the interior. In my specV I used G2 products to change the entire interior to black and it came out fantastic. Held up great with no scratch marks or peeling even in the FL heat. The key is to clean the parts with degreaser and then use their primer/adhesion promoter before applying the dye/paint.
I then took the headliner and visors to an auto upholsterer and had him recover them. That combined with a Katzkin leather kit and it was a very, very nice interior.

I don't understand the difference between buying the same part in black and just dyeing yours. Many of the parts are molded in one color and then dyed from the factory.

The stock GE8 grab rail (oh sht handles) is below (info taken from hondapartsunlimited)
GRAB RAIL ASSY. *NH220L* (CLEAR GRAY) 83240-SNA-A01ZC
Black- 83240-SNA-A01ZE GRAB RAIL ASSY. *NH167L* ( GRAPHITE BLACK ) 07 - 09MDX
Stock rail w/Coat hanger - 83240-SNA-A11ZC Black w/ coat hanger 83240-SNA-A11ZE (also from an 07-09 MDX)
I got bored one day and started looking up part #'s the last letter of the part # is the color code C - Clear gray (same color on our GE8's), E = graphite black, but an Acura part (so it wont show up on a strictly Honda parts search, on hondapartsunlimited you can search between the 2 divisions, just don't enter what car you have makes the search easier). They even have ivory, reg. gray, etc. etc, just change the last letter.
Shouldn't be too hard to find the black counterparts (if they're made) just takes time. https://www.hondapartsunlimited.com/...=ROOF%20LINING

Anytime, Matt.
From a quick search it looks like it might just be the grab rails, and the map light (if you get a different one like the Homelink console mod in black off ebay or somewhere) something like this below but in black.
Doesn't look like the sunvisors, or the child seat cover in the rear comes in black (but they might). At least the visors you can wrap also but the plastic pieces I dunno
Didn't check for the dome, or other tidbits.
