2010 BBP Auto Sport

So Ive been lurking these forums for about 3-4 years. I finally purchased a Fit for the wife and I for daily driving. Our current goal is to extract as many MPG as possible while making the Fit look a little bit different than stock. On my 3rd tank I managed 42.4 MPG! Anyways, here what I have done so far. I wont show you stock, because we all know what it looks like.

First Mod was the all weather mats(a little bit dirty lol):


Second Mod, 15% tint all around:


And finally my third mod, waiting to be put on, 16x7 Konig Feathers:


I weighed the Konigs, and they came out to 14.8 lbs. I will weigh the stocks once I get them off.

All that is left is the Mugen Kit and I should be set.

Looks good! Keep up with updates

As for wheels - would have been better off with the rpf1s at 8pbs a piece. But the feathers do look better.

Thanks! Yeah I thought about the rpf1s but the difference is about 1 lb for 16". Here quick pic of them on:



I wanted to get the Honda center cap on there, but it was to small.

How do you get 42.4 MPG? Do you drive 90% freeway and what is your tire pressure?

You should do the weight reduction that everyone is trying to do to the GEs...

So far most have them have been able to have off 160+ lbs. pretty easily...
