No that's a rear bumper applique.

 

I'll get some pics of the wheels after I clean em up a bit. They have some minor curb rash on em but the plasti-dip should disguise that nicely.

 

Finally got around to finally installing my OEM armrest. Also recently installed the clazzio's. Its like a whole new car in there!!

 

This is amazing. It's the little things that make a car so great.

That arm rest. Those seats.

 

prepping the fit for winter hibernation... she will be kept in a climate controlled storage.

SEMA 2012 was awesome too!

 

ahh, looks good anyways.


yah, use some spot bondo and sand it down before you spray. then it will be prefectly smooth. (or just use duplicolor wheel paint and make it permanent).



sounds good. i put my G35C to sleep before halloween. will be putting away my Z pretty soon.

 

Ever since I got my 2012 Fit in August I've been mildly annoyed at the lack of things I was well used to with a series of high end luxury cars. (But my FIT had only 4 miles on it...my high end cars usually had 100k before I'd spring for them.)

Like an engine temp gauge...oil pressure gauge...outside and inside thermometers...auto up and down for both front windows, not just the driver's...and on and on.

I thought it wouldn't bother me. After all my first new car was a '72 VW Superbeetle, which was advanced over bugs of a decade earlier since not only did it have a speedometer and odometer, it EVEN HAD A FUEL GAUGE! Compared to that, the Fit was crowded with gauges and features.

Last night I succumbed and ordered a ScangaugeII...and now wait eagerly for its arrival, while perusing posts of various mounting locations, and the online manual to consider which gauges I want up on the screen.



Oh, for those who have one: Does the air intake temp seem to be about the same as the outside air temp, or is it already heated somewhat by the time it hits the sensor?

on a good intake system you would see about 7-10F difference between ambient and IAT.

btw, you can bascially do everything the scanguage can do off your smartphone + BT obd2 transmitter... also nuvi makes ecoRoute BT transmitters which works with their navs, to have full screens with gauges. i use that in my Z.

 

also... just a few minutes ago... my Bride Brix II seats were sold just minutes after I posted it on FB. Wasn't expecting them to sell that quick LOL

 

damn, perfect timing, huh, evil.

 

I guess new seats for next year then. Damn SEMA is to blame for this untimely sale... so much candy at the show lol

 

4th time vacuuming her, took about 30 minutes.

 

Consider getting one of the Gentex Mirrors. It'll give you a compass as well as the outside temp of the vehicle. You can get Homelink a well which might add to the "creature comforts" you are missing.

Put on the STI lip today & lowered the fronts on my N+ a little. Gotta make a few adjustments on it, but it looks cool. Hardware that came w/ it is very nice and holds it nice and secure. Already scraping everywhere, but it only marks up the bottom so it's all good.

 

Picked up a set of clear axis c-style led tails and modulo led door sills here in Hong Kong. I'll post pics when i get back.

 

I got to use my, now, fully functioning remote start! Brought the Fit back into work yesterday and had them put the new wire harness in and it fixed the problem with the window. I hopped into my little go-kart this morning and it was nice and toasty! Possibly the best purchase for my car so far.

 

yep, plus some other brand also sells one with LCD where you can hook up a rear view camera too.



for me, just drove my GE to work today. need to remove frozen bird crap later today.

 

And how cold was it? Around freezing here this morning. I dressed for it and turned my heated seats on. No need for remote here.

 

not to forget huge waste of gas idling until it's warm enough inside the car.

and if it wasnt for these selfish people idling their cars to warm up, we would not need to use winterized gas oct - april...

 

Yeah. The car will warm up in 5 min of driving more than it will in 10 or 20 min of just idling. So just bear the cold for a couple mins of driving then you're fine. My opinion at least.
