Just go 16/17 on the Fit if you want shorter sidewalls to look "nicer", the Fit is much bigger than your old Civic even if it doesn't seem like it. Look at them side by side.

I think it looks good the way it is but that's just me lol

I always thought those grilles would look better paint matched. First time seeing it and I think I'm right.

Padded the edges of my false floor, carpeted it, and finished it till I get enough for the glass. Also get a low profile grill to carpet over so you cant see the sub at all is coming.

Thanks man, that's my block heater cord. Helps the engine start up when it's like -40 outside. Usually I tuck it back behind the grille when it warms up but I haven't gotten around to it yet lol.

Hey Wild Bill! I like the wheels & tires.. Some chrome lug nuts and some shiny tire polish would make it look great.. I hope you aren't hurting too badly from your painting effort... You are doing better than me.. Arthritis is kicking my tired saggy ass... Damned Texas weather changes suck... I can feel a storm coming before the national weather bureau reports it..

Mount kit for the K20 Ge8 fit swap

Hasport has had the mount kit for this swap for at least a year now. They just don't advertise it.
I personally called them about it a while back and its the same kit they used in the crz k20 swap.

Washed it so it'd be somewhat presentable for you scalawags at the Fresno meet. Note I said somewhat.

No pics.
