CHRIS!

yo man, it's.... the other Chris, the photographer dude from Okinawa. I was just looking around on here and found your car. Looks good man!
My wife and I will be back in Texas in January, and last night i got a Fit from a dealer in Dallas. Milano Red 2010 Sport. We're super stoked.

 

Love the options you guys get over there, more Acura then Honda! Auto climate control, very cool and those other buttons on the dash too, cool! Oh and that CF there....

 

Hey Chris how you doing man. Thanks alot. Good pickup, great daily driver without a doubt. Much appreciated Klasse, definitely more in the mold of an Acura I guess one could say. Maybe that's why they cost more here also.

Well since this was bumped for me I don't need to as I was going to make an update just now.

I stated previously about getting some functional eyecandy, well finally today the things I was waiting on arrived.




The only pics I took and off the phone so quality is lacking a bit, especially when taking while moving. Holding them to the dash is Seeker's FRP mount. Gauges are Defi AdvanceBF type to include water temp, oil temp and oil pressure.

That's ridiculously cool. What gauge pod is that? Custom?

 

Man, I wish we got red instead of blue backlighting The red gauges look great!
I guess we all crave what we dont get lol

 

The pod is from Seeker. Small 2 man shop, Ryo used to be a part of Spoon and decided years back to have his own company. They are actually just a few km down the road from Spoon.

Thanks circa40, honestly I'm so glad about the red/amber gauges, the blue offered there is just not really to my liking. I know some like it very much, which is cool for them. It's little things like this that car-makers should offer as an option. How difficult is it really to offer a different interior lighting option? Not very at all.

 

SEEKER does have a few nice offerings for the FIT... they wing is pretty aggressive looking

 

They had their blue Fit at the shop yesterday and the wing looks much better in person. At least to me. I thought it looked alright online, but wasn't quite sure. I may end up with it eventually. If not that one, maybe Last Station.

 

yeah their blue FIT look sick, I thought the wing was pretty radical but liking it. Now pair that with the SEEKER cf hatch garnish and looks like a winning combo... I'm contemplating on them myself

these are some I'm interested as well... but I'm more on the Seeker and these white ones...

 

Took a drive over to Fuji, different route and when I came around a corner I was presented with this...

 

LOL at the music on the display hahaha

Cool shot though!

 

Damn! those gauges... sweet!!!

that's what you get for setting "RANDOM"

 

Hahaha, the navigator beside me wanted to listen to her. Though I can't really say anything as it is on my iPod. Though seeing Fuji so clear made me want to "just dance".

 

Love everything you did to your Fit. Great shot!

 

nice shots

 

The gauges look delicious!

 

pm sent :-)

 

Those Defi gauges costs an arm and leg for us

Maybe one day i'll swap out my autometers for Defi....wishful thinking

 

Cost an arm and 2 legs for me as the $uck blows.

 

What is the highest oil temperature u're getting so far and what grade of engine oil are u using now?
