New Fit owner! *waves*

Hiya everyone,

i'm slip Got my new Silver Fit Sport in march and was an instant fan of the car and this site. i've owned all beaters before the fit and this is my first BRAND NEW car. only 36 miles when i digned on it! i've been learning some about my fit and moding it but i'm still kinda lost. i've started with door visors and door sills. thinking about rear applique. i'm in Maine and i'm SUPER rural and no one in my area tunes imports or mods anything on cars really. lotta loud trucks round these here parts so... couple questions.

what can i do to increase power without voiding my warranty?

i wanna mod my interior lights and have read a couple threads but still have no idea what lights to buy. i'd like maps, dome, read plate lights in a light blue or white. where should i look and what are the part numbers?

i've looked at the switchblade key mod but i was under the impression that there was some kinda security chip in the key. i'm assuming the security is from proximity to the ignition and not from the actual key's connection. is that correct?

i got a ton of questions but i think i'll end there for now i love everything all of you have posted and and so excited to start slowly working on my fit. I've been using the handle sl1pg8r online now for over 15 years and have adopted an up-side-down superman symbol. if anyone has any links to superman products or has ideas of how to incorporate that into the car i'd love to hear from you!

welcome...

As for you power question nothing is really out there yet. Intake is your best bet for any horsepower gain (what little it may be (2-5ish hp))
