Mine will remain mostly stock. Here's what I've done to it though, mostly practical stuff:

Carpet floor mats
Center armrest console
Cargo cover
Lower grill mesh (to protect AC condenser)
Accord horn mod
Vinyl foglight protectors (already had to replace one shattered foglight)
20% tint all around

Here is my XM radio. I'm using a suction cup mount on the little side window, and the radio is connected to my Auxiliary port.



And, here, as promised, my custom, do-it-yourself cargo mat after installation. Seats down:

Is your Fit an auto or manual? If it's auto, was the shift knob hard to change?

Mine is a 5-speed manual. It is easy to screw it on.

Not much here. Got a baby on the way, so I'm slowly saving up for a K20 swap, while waiting for someone to make some damn MOTOR MOUNTS!!! I'm pretty impatient, as you can tell.

But currently, I got:

6K Xenith Xenon HID Headlights
10K Xenith Xenon HID Fogs
20% Tint all around w/6 inch windshield strip

Near Future (before July 2010):
Installed K20 swap

Far Future (after July 2010):
Full Adjustable Coilovers
Rims

If you get the Coverking Neoprene seat covers AND you opt for the optional OEM center armrest console, can you do both?

Would I have to get the seat covers without the standard armrest?

Question for Philip:

You said your tint was 50% front and 35% back. That is what I plan to do but have not seen any posts with that mix. I am trying not to have the front and back look much different and 50% is max legal in the front where I am from. How do you like your tint and is there much difference front to back? Thanks

vbwball: its also the darkest legal here. i like it but i kind of wish it was darker. its one less thing to worry about getting ticketed for if i get pulled over though so i'm fine with it. theres definitely a difference in the front and back but i was worried about it not looking good and i think it looks ok. and since i don't have navi i got a metalic reflective tint so that makes it appear darker lol. one good thing about it though is that my friend wait4thefit has 20% all around and he says it can be kinda hard to see out of the sides and back at night and i dont have that problem
