Got these in the mail a few days ago and will be installing them on the car, along with my plates, as soon as I get back from the DMV to register my car today.

GO NINERS!!!!

added generic rubber mat in back, one bought in Costco years back, and is a pretty good fit if I trim it's fore and aft dimension. This after finishing Scotchguarding front seats with a second coat, and 1st coat & dry in the back area. Looking forward to when my son has time to install the center armrest. (I only have use of 1 arm so can't do this myself...why I bought the Fit AT Base to begin with, to avoid shifting all the time.)

that's the honda factory option knob. you can source it from one of the sponsors here, or your dealer.


installed blue LED for above the cup holder lamp and ivtec decals. both picts in my blog.

im really liking this car now especially with the swifts. it literally transformed my car into something i really like. the stock suspension is soft on the '12 and it's comfy but feels too ordinary. the swifts is firmer but no issue over small or large bumps. dampers DO NOT feel under damped at all.

Picked up 100 lbs of chicken feed, a 33 gal metal garbage can, 50 lbs of grit, plus all my soccer gear and my 10 y/o. With space to spare, all in the fit. Oh, then we went to Wally world.

Might be looking to get a good set of those wheels in either gloss black or silver...

Not sure which would look better on mine.

Pretty Wheels.... Me Want...

They would look great on a TW fit... Hell, they'll look good on any color fit.

Those 16x7??? From what I've read 16x7 TE37 weigh less than 12 lbs. That true??? That would make them lighter than RPF1s.
