I think I'll order the Mugen knob as well. The stock knob sucks in this thing.

Might I suggest a Blox weighted knob? Personally think they look better and feel amazing.

Mugen knob on the way as well. Mugen pedals, ambient lighting, and tint likely next week. Then roof and springs.

Agreed 100%

The Fit isn't ever going to be fast, so I might as well make the drive enjoyable. Suspension upgrades and luxuries are about all I intend for it.

BB nice build so far!!!!!! Love the shift boot, quality looks top notch, and that stitching pops out and hits you in the eye. Great work. Might want to get my parking brake cover & armrest cover done over, they do leather too?

good priorities! But I also have to agree with Blue; my priorities are cosmetic/luxury, then performance.

Very true unless u wanna dump a couple grand into getting a k20 swap but if that's the case why not get the civic Si?
But I'm just focusing on my exterior then slowly work on the interior. Waiting to save up to get my exhaust, I'm wrapping my hood in carbon seeing how carbon fiber hoods are expensive as hell

Passing the time until my Mugen bits arrive, I'm working on my retrofit, with updates in the lighting forum.

It's really amazing what you're doing BB. Making your Fit your own. Great work man!

It's incredible. Muuuuuuch better than stock.

I'm going to do some vinyl work for a buddy that works at the dealer in trade for ambient lighting and the mugen grip tape pedals. Weee.

In the next few days I'll probably go ahead and order my red mirror caps and the new towhook cover to drill through since I still have my red powdercoated tow hook from my last Fit. My wheels/tires will be for sale soon as well.
