What did you do to your GE fit today?
I dunno...I had some metal polish...but I can't even find it. FML. I used it on my old HKS when the previous owner had run it with a full header, pipe, no cat and it had tarnished. Now I can't find it. Suckage.
Ok here's what I did...found an old clay bar I had. Got off some road tar using that and lube..I washed my car recently and haven't driven so no dirt on it. That got most of it off and then I just polished it with a microfiber cloth and quick detailer. Looks really really good. I dunno if same technique would be ok on your t1r.

Just finished washing and waxing it. Had been about 3 weeks since I was stateside for 2 and just got back last weekend to nothing but rain. Damn I love when it is all clean, the pearl white just looks yummy.

When modded a bit, I agree. Otherwise, they look a little bit small on the road in my opinion. Great in pics, when you can't tell how tiny the Fit is though.

Here is a recent pic of my car with the RS style tails, just for kicks.
A visor test fit, but I took them off since I think it is too cluttered looking for my tastes.
Now I either want to add a rear spacer and sway bar, or try to import some damn Mugen springs since everything over here, including the Swifts, lower the car too much for me I think. I want 1/2"-3/4" lower all around. Coilovers that go to stock height might be an option too.

Yes, the visors are probably for sale. I love the function of them so much, I can't let go of the idea, but ultimately I don't think I will put them on. Sometimes the whole "do what you like" thing isn't the best route for someone.
edit: even the I <3 Fit license plate frame is something I only run on the weekend.

Took the fit on a 3 hour trip. Mostly through towns but a little interstate driving. Only avgd 35mpg. But considering i was doing 80-90mph for 30 min, that isnt too bad.
I also have more good news, my windshield met a flying rock about 2hours in at 80mph. Now i have a BEAUTIFUL 10inch crack and chip on the lower half of the windshield.
Luckily, florida is a clean glass state. Insurance picks up the tab, 100%.
