Thanks to the homie Painterguy as always.

Where does one purchase these side moldings and do they make them for a GD3?

For the GE you can buy them from the dealer which Rick did

For the GD you can buy them from Zeta

Body Side Molding Fits 2007 - 2014 Honda Fit

I don't know if you can buy them from the dealer for the GD. Checked Bernardi and they aren't available

I also cut the resonator off the stock air box and put a 90* elbow off the lid to the throttle body. For those that are in Canada this is not a $50 mod. For what I spent in parts I could have bought the HPS sri. However there is something to be said about a DIY job

Sure, just use a soft focus for mine. The previous owner did not care for the car at all, paint chips everywhere, a solid scrape on the bumper extension on the pass side, and all of the interior hatch plastics need to be replaced

On a happier note, the rest of the parts for my projector retrofit showed up to day. Might get into that this weekend

It's because white is right when it comes to a Honda.

So true...I think it goes back to the old type r days when the type r cars were usually white. But it always seems like white is a popular choice for honda enthusiasts.

I didn't like the white, got it because it was the only m/t & dealer said it would cost extra to ship in another color. It's growing on me though, partially because of you fitfreaks & all the bada$$ white rides.

Received this yesterday and installed it today. Sound quality is top notch and with rock music it's been the most impressive I've used so far. It's able to keep up with double bass drums with authority and accuracy without a hint of port noise, blending in well with the front mids.

I took out my AEM fic6 and the boomslang harness... mainly because I had the cable and hose running through hole, with a grommet that wasn't resealing it... so it was letting in air from the engine bay. Starting to worry that's the cause of some recent health issues.

Anyway, I plan on putting it back in sometime in the future, once I figure out what to do with the grommet and hole.
