Looks good! Just curious if that would make your inside temp any hotter... Just seems like the vinyl would absorb more heat than reflect it... Looks good though...

Heat rises so I'm not sure it would "absorb" enough of it to actually make the cabin noticeably hotter. Don't quote me on that though.

The Heat will radiate outwards both up and down. It will increase the temp of the car but likely will be bearable. I have a white car because I owned a black one once.... ugh... killer hot.

Installed my rear clazzio seat covers and moved my amps, since they were mounted to the back of my seats.

Nice! You could probably use those back seats like vibrating massage chairs with your sounds on...

Just about finished up my audio install. I get the sub next weekend.

Jacks for the sub-woofer, so I can take it in and out easily.

Not really a mod, but if it is, it's my 1st for the Fit. I added blind spot mirrors Went to O'Reilly Auto looking for blind spot mirrors. Someone asked me if I needed them because of my Asian eyes. I looked at him, and we laughed it off. He also bought a pair.

I really want to do the JDM wiper mod, but I can't remove the panel

Also thinking of getting yellow fog vinyl overlays and yellow fog light bulbs.

Yeah, I have 205/50/16's on my front wheels. Way better look, and you get a little more rubber on the ground.

thinking about putting my Spun Supamesh 15"s from my Civic on to the Fit. How do you think they'll look? The tires are Nitto Neo Gens in 205/55/15

I think it'll look just fine. WHat's the color of the car and the wheels?

Today, I acquired a traffic citation in my Fit.

I never thought it would be possible to snag a speeding
ticket in the Fit... but I did.

49 in a 35... ~$172 bucks.

I'll just pay it. That is almost 5 months of fuel funds given
the mileage I put on.

Now I remember why I don't drive much around here. It is
a relatively small town so about the only excitement, action
and revenue generation the police get is traffic duty.
