Smile New 2010 Fit Owner

Hello!

I am a new 2010 Honda Fit Owner (Base Model)! I am looking for some interesting things to do to my vehicle to personalize it as mine. Does anyone have any suggestions? Here is what I have thought of so far.

- Vinyl Wrap the Roof Black (I have a Red Fit and I am CONSIDERING this)
- New Stereo (Digital Multimedia Receiver)
- Backup Camera
- Dash Cam (Already done part of this, I have a Thinkware F200 Hardwired, I am looking to do the rear camera as well)
- Fog Lights

Any Ideas would be wonderful.

Thanks!

Welcome to the forum.

Have you considered lowering it?

I always feel like red Honda emblems really set the car apart.

Response to two above

Hello!

I love the idea of the red emblem!

I don’t think lowering it though would be the best of ideas, I’m in New Hampshire and that won’t settle well with snow LOL!

Thanks though, It was a wonderful idea!

I have a Sport, but it's had the base front bumper on there for a few years now, and I recently put the Sport bumper back on. It's not that difficult, and really changes the look for the car.

Where can I find the bumper?

Thanks!

Oh also I’m putting a K&N air filter in, forgot to mention that.

Thanks!

I got mine from here: https://paintapart.com/
Mine is a SSM, and they actually did a really good job with it. It comes folded up, but if you leave it in a warm garage or are gentle with a heat gun, it sorts itself out. Some people have said that the folds crack the paint (Mine wasn't), but the company sent them out a new one free of charge. I also had to get the foglight housing, and since mine is a Sport, I didn't have to worry about wiring, so you may need to find a solution for that.

Alrighty, Thanks!

Any other suggestions?

I had LED interior lights on my previous car that I really liked, so I might do that with the Fit. I can't think of any other "minor" changes to do.
