Last night I washed and waxed the Fit. Today I drove it to get groceries, then I touched up a scratch in the doorjamb. I also found my first rock gouge in the bumper.

Accessories!! Picked up the nose mask, cargo cover & floor mats for my 3 day old Fit! Also swapped out the stock horn for a Fiamm one-much louder!
Cargo cover & mats installed, holding off on the mask until I can give it a good wash & wax.

Thanx much...had a mask on the old Protege 5 & have one on the wife's Miata.
Mazda paint is notoriously thin so had the masks on to prevent stone damage.
Still need a lot of care- keep a good coat of wax on & clean the felt backing frequently!

Today I put new 2 1/4 inch piping all the way from the intake to the back with a borla exhaust and magnaflow tip. Looks and sounds amazing. Sorry no pictures. Also had a nail removed from the back tire and washed it.

It's dark out, and I've got a headache, I'll get some this week sometime.

Oh, I also parked it in the sun bright and early in the morning to let the window tint bake a bit too.
