After 2+ months of waiting, I finally picked up my 2013 Taffeta White Fit Sport w/ Navi today! I had a 2012 Civic lease, and this Fit is a lease too but we might buy it when I go to college in 2014. I like the way it handles, it's a lot different than the Civic but similar too. It's really fun to drive!

Went shopping today... got a Spoon Oil Cap, Spoon Air Filter, and Spoon N1 exhaust... and ordered up a Cusco Type 2 lower tie bar. I also traced down a vibration I was having and it turned out to be a water bottle in the door causing it.

Mmmmmmm white Fit! And this is neither here nor there, but I don't understand why people are so weary about showing their license plate number. What can anyone do with that information to hurt you? And you realize a million people can see it everyday when you're driving right?

Here's a quick video of the K&N intake I installed.


Sorry for vertical video, that's how my phone holder on my dash is set up.

Filled my rear dogbone motor mount with hotglue. Before you say anything negative, this glue takes over 400degrees before melting and will take several HUNDRED pounds of PSI of force to crack.

Car idles with a touch mroe vibration, there is a ton of vibration for a split second while taking off, else its the same. Car shifts MUCH more solid.

No more chuck norris chin kicks from first to second!!!

Car feels great.

I used a mini 10 watt hot glue gun. GET A BIGGER GUN. I would get through one tube of glue before the gun cooled enough that it barely dribbled out. a half hour task took 2 hours

No pictures as I removed the mount in the rain, did it as soon as I could, then re installed in the rain. 17mm and 19mm sockets required. Remove the crossframe bolt by reaching up and rotating the tab on the bolt head towards the rear of the vehicle.

Removal and reinstall itself took all of 5 minutes once car was jacked up

I covered one side in electrical tape to hold glue while I filled one side. Then after it dried for 10 minutes, I removed the tape and filled in any gaps that were left. the glue didnt travel completely down but did fill teh center perfectly.

After everything was set, I wrapped the entire end in electrical tape in one giant long piece, then cut out the holes for the bolt, then installed.

Lol. Really? I had buyer's regret the whole ride home about the white.

Now I really like it!

I wish they still had the light blue of years past.

What color is yours?
