I was/still am not a real big fan of the shaved door handles. It does look great though, looks real clean, and slick looking on the red. Great looking Fit.

Yea I noticed it as well. They might be home made, not saying they are. It just isn't to hard to make your own. Definitely adds a nice touch though.

I think the Fit is way too angular for shaved handles. At least take the door visors off and clean it up a bit. The Fit, unlike it's German competition, tends to look better as things are added to it, not taken away. Still a cool mod though! It certainly doesn't look bad. Just could be better with some more minimal-izing of the rest of the car.

LOL I didn't even notice that.

The first pic looks like the Fit has a black eye.

I've seen this thread plenty of times and only saw the reflection in that last pic. I lol too.

So, not to be a downer, but I hope you have an alternate method of opening the doors if your door system loses power for whatever reason. And that method is secure also (so thieves can't use that to bypass the locks).

I was imagining some thing a little over the top... Somewhere on the underside of the car, close to one side, in a covered panel would be a cable actuated emergency keyhole and handle combo.
