Just ordered TDM Mirror LED winker covers. I forgot to leave a seller note indicating the color I wanted (black) so I had to send a separate message. We will see if I get black.

I'm hesitant because the seller is in Thailand and probablly isn't good with english. But several people have purchased from him in the past...but surprisingly all have been white covers.

We will see what happens when they arrive in 2-3 weeks... (blowing off steam).

Yeah it could've been way worse. Glad it wasn't.

On another note, since I will need a new bumper and fender liners, I am planning on upgrading to the Sport bumper, and side skirts as well. I noticed there are two types of Sport bumpers. Which one is better? I think I heard that one is rare or something. Can someone also help me out and tell me what all I'll need for the conversion? Thanks.

I do think I like this style better than the other one. Probably not going to be getting any Mugen parts any time soon lol. I was planning to have the shop paint and install an STI lip while they're working on my car.

Hi CounterFIT, again I am glad you are ok,
I also want to add that if you get the 2013 one, you can get the Modulo Front Lips
or if you really want, you can get the Full JDM Mugen Fit Shuttle front lower spoiler.

Hmm... again who knows if I'll ever get any of these options lol. Can someone give me the part numbers for both styles? Thanks for your help guys.

Nevermind, found them. Also, I could never find the OEM side skirts anywhere?

Hi,
on this webpage,
there is a list of part number for Modulo Front Lips that came painted from factory (notice different color, different part number).

for the Honda OEM factory bumper,
best way is to go to Bernardi Parts website,
and choose the year and color and you will get the exact parts

Have Fun

Started going on a shopping spree for the Fit...

- OEM JDM RS Tail lights (white/red w/fog)
- OEM Door sill trim
- New fog lamps (to replace cracked ones - I've used heavy duty clear tape for over a year)
- Lamin-X protector for fog lamps
- Xpel protector for door edges
- 4300k Bi-Xenon 35W HIDs & 3000k 35W HIDs
- White LED bulbs for plates and rear cargo area
- Blue LED bulb for center drink tray
- K&N cleaning kit

I still want to get:

- aftermarket eurostyle LED DRLs (since I will have to unplug the DRL fuse)
- OEM RS emblem
- OEM arm rest
- OEM seat belt bolt cover
- OEM side outlet/meter visor/door panel carbon trim
- Clazzio PVC seat covers (wish i bought them earlier when I could get blue stitching and a lower price)

I'll try to take some pics once everything is installed.

So after doing a bit of research, I found that the Sport and Base bumper parts (Bumper, Fender Liners, Grille, Grille Cover) are almost exactly the same price but of course there are the fog lights... I think I'm gonna end up going non-OEM on those and get the OEM Base wiring setup and switch. I also do plan on getting Side Skirts but since they're already painted I am just gonna wait for now. Does the sport look weird without the Side Skirts?

Yes, you need side skirts.
The easier one to install is the Mugen Side Skirts since the OEM sport side skirts require you to drill rectangle holes into the body...
and not easy to make a rectangle holes (not round one)

and for Mugen side skirts, the USDM Mugen one is much cheaper,
and most likely already available in your color...

the JDM Mugen Fit RS one is more expensive due to shipping (if they are still available)
and most likely you have to paint it since last time I bought one,
they are almost run out of stock in any color so I have to get mine in I think grey color... and paint them again.. so extra cost on painting too...

or you can buy the replica of the JDM Mugen Fit RS one on eBay...
they are from Taiwan and I think they fit well since one member here have it on his car...
it is just that they are NOT exact copy but sightly different in shape then the original Mugen one...
