Discuss your favorite GE8 mod

Like the title says, in your mind, what has been the best thing you've done to your Fit?

Mine is bone stock, but I did do the trunk tray which is kind of cool and tint which is awesome. Visors are on their way!

I wish. Probably the rear garnish wrapped in carbon fiber with the wiper delete. Looks clean and no other GE's have it.

for me it's the little things that make the car more livable... the center console / arm rest, or maybe the ambient lights. just make it more tolerable day-to-day.

Here is my favorites in order
#1 Tanabe DF Springs
#2 Progress Rear Sway Bar
#3 Window Tint
#4 Accord Horn
#5 Short Ram Intake (mostly for sound)
#6 LED Parking lights
etc...

Soon tires will be on the list. That might take my #2 spot. Stocks suck.

1. H-Fit Short Shift adapter
2. Visors - loving these things.
3. JDM LED tails - the brakes are brighter/more attention getting, and I love the look.

1. Gutter guard black mesh in front of A/C condenser. Cheap insurance against an expensive repair. Almost free (I already had a roll of the stuf).
2. Air horn. The smaller the car, the bigger the horn should be. ~$40
3. Center console.
4. Window tinting. Very helpful in the hottest Georgia summer in my memory.

My Japan flag front bumper sticker that's hollow in the center. The paint shows through, and I can still pop off the tow hook if i ever have to.

No, it's a separate product. The Mugen shifter is a whole assembly, and this is an adapter that goes at the end of the shift rod.
