I didn't do anything to my fit today, but I did buy one.

Installed my prm intake today. Sounds pretty good while accelerating at the rate of a moped. Hopefully find some time to drill and tap new holes in the carbon duck bill spoiler and reshape the carbon diffuser so it'll sit flush on the rear bumper. Cars a never ending project

Got my windows tinted today. I think it makes the car look 100% better. I also don't feel like I'm driving around in a fish bowl anymore.

That's good to hear, I didn't think I really needed to have a movable cover like the OEM and to get the Zeta for more than 50% off the OEM was a big bonus

This will be my last mod for awhile, nothing else I really have planned at this point

I installed a SSRI and painted my manifold cover so I would be protected while driving. I'm probably going to add a new coupler between and 90° and 60° bend to make it longer so I can put the filter in front of the battery and get it away from the engine.

I think you are in the wrong place. Yours is a GD and you are posting in the GE section. (nice bat BTW)

If you look around a bit there are lingo threads and the difference between the GD and GE.

And welcome to the site.

I duct taped two sun shades together to make one that would actually fit the windshield. Yeah, didn't work out. I'm a dork.

Got my passenger foglight replaced at the dealership. This weekend I'll pop 'em both out and put Headlight Armor on them.

Got oil changed and tires rotated, while waiting looked at the new Honda inventory nothing exciting on the lot my Fit still is the best looking Honda product available.. May go back to changing my own oil was to get it all done for $47 ended up at $62.

Above specs on wheels looks nice.
