Isn't that kind of what the applique is for? Hopefully you're getting discounts on all these parts, I can't imagine anyone being dumb enough to pay retail on these.

I'm not impressed with any of the Mugen stuff, as I said, it looks to be nothing more than a money pit for Honda. The muffler sounds ok, but it's not worth half of their asking price.

These were steps I took.

Unbolt passenger side seat and unplug airbag from USDM GE8 / FIT.
Remove seat rail from the USDM GE8 / FIT passenger seat.
Remove seat rail from a USDM Civic Si / FD2 passenger seat.
Bolt USDM GE8 / FIT rail to USDM Civic Si / FD2 passenger seat.
Connect airbag and bolt the USDM Civic Si / FD2 seat with GE8 rail to USDM GE8 / FIT.
Test airbag.
Repeat on the driver side.

Bacically, you will need to reuse USDM GE8 / FIT rails. The bolt position on GE8 and FD2 seats are the same. I started with the passenger side as fold back plan in case something went wrong, I still could use my car.

I will post picutures when I come back from business trip.

This is the idea that I got from before I did mine. https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/2nd-...it-friend.html. I installed Civic Type-R FD2 seats in my Civic Si and installed the Civic Si seats on the USDM GE8/ FIT.

Wow, This thread is quite exciting!

I'm very interested in seeing these SI Seats in the Fit.

I have an 07 and have been eyeing some 02-05 Civic SI seats.

My only concerns are fitment and airbag deployment.

Maybe we can figure out some more comfortable seats to put in our Fits.

I'm 6'1" 240lbs so for me, I feel the seats are a little on the small side.

Hmmm....after reading the first couple of pages I could have sworn this was an advertising campaign and that FitFreak had been infiltrated by Honda marketing department. I'm still not convinced otherwise.

Too many OEM parts with "part numbers" conveniently posted.

Personally, I'm not a fan of fake CF stickers...but you are doing your own thing and that is all that matters. Is there a wrinkle or dmple on hood in pic 4? I'm curious to see what happens when you get tired of the fake CF look in two months and peel this off.

Again props for going this far with the Fit.

It will be easier to remove fake CF than remove real CF hood for sure. I have not decided which direction I am going. So I just put 3m Di-NOC and see I like it or not. Additional, I have not seen really nice real CF hood for USDM FIT GE8 yet. I like the hood in your signiture but it is for JDM FIT. I will wait for JDP or whoever will duplicate it for USDM GE8. Then I might reconsider it. Furthermore, $500+ is a little expensive. I will get a new set of wheels and tires as my next item.

I can definitely install window visor for you. However, I am going back and forth between MD and FL. I attend school there and work in DC. Otherwise, my brother can help you out.
