The car where it is as of today!:











CHECK THE NEXT FEW PAGES FOR PROGRESS PICTURES OF THE CAR!!



Hey guys. I figured since theres only a few people with 2012s modding their cars that I would post mine up. Picked this car up 2/9/12. One of 13 Milano red 5 speed manual fits in the country.

Anyway heres a few pictures from the day I picked it up at the dealer. First mod I did when I brought it home was a Karcepts shift knob that I took out of my old rsx before I sold it:



The second thing I did to the car was ad HID low beams and foglights

Then I picked up a few accessories from College hills honda. I grabbed the window visors, cargo tray, led bulb package. I also picked up a Zeta Products armrest:


And this week I went crazy.. lol. I added a PRM intake, deleted the muffler to a straight pipe, added the DEPO led tail lights, debaged the back, painted the defuser black, added a blox shorty antenna, and added 16x7 Drag DR31 wheels. The car looks crazy right now at stock rideheight, but I have tanabe df210s going in friday




Future plans:
TINT!!-DONE
JDP duckbill spoiler- DONE!
JDP lip (if they make one for 2012)
JDP Rear Diffuser
JDP carbon fiber hood
Greddy TiC exhaust and custom midpipe-DONE!
Roof Rack -DONE!
Thats it

 

How did you find out there are only 13 milano red 5 speeds? I would be curious as to how many 2009 Orange Revolution Metallic Sport 5 speeds there are...

 

Red is so nice.

 

Awesome!!!!

 

Thats how many there were in the country (at the dealerships) when I was looking for mine. Before I bought this one, I went to another dealership who told me there were 13 in the whole country. So I had to buy it from this dealership, joyce honda, who are a bunch of assholes.

Thanks, I really wanted blue, but I am happy I got red

Thanks buddy

 

Looks great! That duckbill is going to look sick w/ those wheels!

 

Thanks! I cannot wait for the duckbill! Im hoping JDP also decides to make a 2012 front lip

 

Dropped it on tanabe df210s.. All it needs now is tint!

 

Clean, just like your vr4.

 

Nice progress! Moaaaaarrrr lowwwwww lol-

 

Nice work! It seems like there is still a bit of gap...is it the angle?

 

Thanks guys


Thanks

There is a little bit of gap. I think the springs need to settle a little more. But I am on an uneven surface as well. And these tires seem to have less tread depth than most 205/45 ive seen

 

I like it!

I just picked up my MR Mugen 5speed as well. I just wanna lower it and thats it.

 

Nice but, moar low peeze

 

Since they dont make mudflaps for a sport.. I decided to get creative, and make some of my own. These are the rally armor mudflaps often seen on evo, sti, impreza etc. Adapted them to fit a Fit, lol.

 

Why did you choose to go with 205/45 size, just curious? Take good care of the paint so it doesn't turn into Milano Pink over time.

Looks nice, black roof and bonnet would really look sick in my opinion.

 

After doing some research I found that 205/45 is the proper size for a 16x7 rim. Anything less is stretching it on the wheel. And the stock dunlop tires, even though they are brand new, sucked. Im going to be using them for the winter. In my opinion if you are using a 16x7 wheel I would go with 205/45 or 205/50

And Im thinking about doing the roof in black vinyl. Not sure yet. When I get the duckbill spoiler that is going to be gloss black.

 

Well 205/50 would of been better as it is almost exactly the same diameter as the stock 185/55 and your speedo and mileage would not be compromised, and works well on wheels up to 7.5" is width. Your current diameter is like running a 205/50R15. It will help with acceleration, well possibly, not sure how heavy or light those wheels are.

Well doing vinyl will be a viable option, if you don't like it or grow tired of it, you can just remove.

 

Nice looking fit

 

Thanks man! Im trying lol! I came from a corvette to this so Im just trying to make it look good!
