bought a new one. 2012 silver 5MT. taking delivery tomorrow as i didn't have a driver for the ride back from the dealer.. lol

ordered up floor mats and visors for the car. will order axleback, swift springs, and wheelset over the weekend probably. not sure about the muffler. want a quiet one but louder than stock.

 

Pulled the rear seats out. I love how the carpeting covers everything w/ the cargo flap.

Detailed interior

 

The rear passenger side shock tower cover never fit back over once I installed the N+ (the driver side and passenger side covers are different shapes...). SOOOOO I just drilled a hole in mine to let the adjuster knob w/ it's cap poke thru...

 

Removed the Sport grill to give the faded black a touch up paint job. Hoping the quality is good and long lasting as it was a tedious job masking over the silver wings and Honda emblem. Looks very sharp though!

 

I painted over my (non-sport) grill a few weeks ago. Just used black plasti dip. Sprayed right over the JDM emblem and when it was dry just peeled it off. The grill looks great tho. The plasti dip is tough and isn't really supposed to fade.

 

vinyl off...

 

Gomen TEO, but now the car looks better to me. Are you actually working on a new design?

 

It's a day late... but my girlfriend and I went rolling out and about and took time to do some photos (she's a photographer and College level art instructor)

The last 7 in this gallery are from yesterday.

And of course one touched up with her name in it - Shisho (Shadow of Death)

 

I bought a set of Progress springs I already received waiting for install and just received my carbon fiber license plate frame.

 

A full wrap is what I'm wanting to do but I'll keep them un-vinyled for now.

 

The kanji is actually Shisou which does mean shadow of death or look of death.

 

The shop is supposed to call tomorrow, but with my recent Fit luck they
will probably burn down tonight.

They are black-black-black and will go into this:

Hmmm, where did you get the license plate frame? Is it really carbon
fiber or carbon fiber like...

I generally like a clear polycarbonate cover for the plate. It would be
cool if the frame came with a plate cover ( Ky seldom changes plates
and they tend to get grody after a couple of year...)

Great looking car I did like the picture on the hood made the car different. What kind of vinyl? I have a Red 2012 I was thinking of doing a vinyl rising sun on the roof if I can find someone to do it..

 

^it's called an air release vinyl (as I was told). Basically anyone that are into the billboard/sign business will do it.


and on another note... someone buy these before it's gone Enkei Racing NT03+M 17x7.5 4X100 ET45 72.6 Hyper Black - Set of 4 FREE SHIPPING | eBay

 

i put my Droid4 cradle and tollroad transponder in my 12' tonight. also ordered up a usb power socket as the one that came with the cradle was huge.

also made appointment to get my tints done....my guy's booked for several weeks but anyway.

 

Danka! I keep misspelling it! LOL
(I know two languages... English and Bad English!)

Loving the carbon fiber frame - where you'd get it (I'm so googling it now)

I have a thinkgeek one on the front with my "My other car is a TARDIS" plate (the frame has "will work for bandwidth" - yeah, I'm an geek...

Washed it & put the overlays I got from Headlight Armor on the fogs- did a slight adjustment to the fogs while I was at it.
