Thanks , Chris! I had the H's done in the old school style because I thought it'd look perfect considering the rims are JDM ITR replicas. They are a little too bright of a red but it works.

I still need to buy another rear H since mine is broken. Have come to the conclusion that someone tried to steal it. Was thinking about painting mine flat black until I have the $55 bucks to spend on a mod I already have

The Clazzio seat covers give the Fit a very luxurious look and feel....

I wonder if I could get a half set for just the rears.

Installer couldn't get it to work. Honda engineered the roof antenna all wrong. Doesn't lend itself to being taken off. It was cf vinyl roof btw. It sucks but I can't blame anyone.

Ah for that you have to treat it like a mini cooper and cut a small slot in the vinyl to push the antenna through and then cut around it once you get it down
And set.

Likely what has to be done is the head liner has to be pulled down a little bit from the hatch area to gain access to the antennae from underneath it.

Yeah they had that down. Idk. I wasn't there but he tried a bunch of stuff. I mean, he didn't want to come up empty handed you know?

I'll tell you what tho...I'm so upset that the mountains are blue, if you get my drift. Now where to spend that extra dough?

Hmm... how about a B-pipe, Progress rear anti-roll bar, OEM visors, and/or OEM accesory grill?

You hire me as a budding photographer and I'll come down and pull the antenna.
