Once you get tired of the look, just remove them and you wouldn't have wasted your efforts.

Although I wouldn't do it on my car, it really doesn't look too bad. Honest.
I'll do that, just trying new things with the little money that i have.

Thought of paint the rims black or darker color, I know it will look better that way, but wanted something that I can change back to original in case I have to sell the car cause thing are not to good in my job.

thanks all for your opinions.

Not something I would do and everyone knows how much I love sticking stuff on my Fit. If you like it then don't worry about.

I can't really judge from that close up distance. It would be much better if you had the whole car in view. If you did black, it might be okay. As it is right now though, I'm not feeling it either.

I kind of like it

unless they look like stickers. If it looks like paint, then I like it.

woo you guys are brutal!

honestly i dont think its the worst thing done to a fit for goodnessakes (there is FAR worse on this forum and some have even embraced it as 'cool'), maybe if the rims were white as well.

but as it is...i would say no man. good effort though.

Looks like I was the only one who voted "yea" - everyone else voted "nay"

I will make a suggestion though - I agree with Yes, I Vtec that it would look much better painted. The thing with the decals is, it's easy to tell close-up that it's not really a solid line.

Like eldaino says there are far more worse-looking mods posted on this forum. Kudos to you Volcom for attempting to do something different within the boundaries of good taste.

thanks, I know they will look better if the rims where painted, at first i didnt like it much, but some friends told me they look great and different, then when i did the other rims i kinda liked it. I just wanted something that I can put it back to original if i got bored of it or need to sell the car if thing dont turn up. maybe later i will post pics of the whole car.

they are decals but you wont notice that. only if i told you or you are close enought.

thanks to you all that made your opinions with respect.

Understood bro Yeah I understand the "going back to original" sentiment.
I'll wait till I see the whole car
