That was a joke but, yeah. I wouldn't be painting stock calipers myself.

 

yah, especially with drums in the back, if you painted the front any color than stock or black it'll look stupid. just leave it stock color... or as waizzz said, go wilwood or something for 4 corners.

 

Black or even a very slight gold like one of my friends has on his Fit with S2k front calipers I'm all for. But red or something noticeable is not my thing at all.

I am loving these new pads and rotors, I should have done this awhile ago!

Man you never know what to expect on forums, I have seen people make actual threads promoting the fake BBK stick-on calipers from ebay

I can't tell you how many cars I see in SoCal with painted drums it's pretty hilarious!

 

I finally installed the S2000 Calipers on mine. haha

 

Nice, how do you like them so far? I am so glad I upgraded mine!

 

Nice and simple , love it

 

I had a busy day today.

I installed a new gauge cluster lense (scratched the last one)



Installed the black shifter cover from the 2013 models (need to buy the black shift lock cover)



Washed the car and also cleaned the interior, too. Interior part of the build is done!



That's my goal with this build, just clean and simple since it's (supposed to be) my daily driver.

I have resisted the temptation to add more aggressive aero so far but it's becoming difficult to keep up the resistance

Welcome to the forum!

 

Damn that looks good! Must have taken a while to swap it out though

 

It was not difficult just a lot of steps, I had to remove the entire center console, shifter and my Zeta armrest too

 

Looking Really Good Bro! Definitely Following this Post!

 

Thanks!

I need to get a pic of some of my engine bay bling

 

Yesterday was my 1 year anniversary since I purchased my Fit and I ordered some things on Friday to commemorate.

They should be installed in the next two weeks so standby for updates!

In the meanwhile here is are pics of how she looks today from our meet on Saturday (I took one and Zuriel took the other)

 

Finally got my recent additions in and took some time off to install them

Starting off with the Cusco Front Strut Bar



Blue goodness



Injen Intake



Box of goodness!



Last but not least the Progress Rear Sway Bar



Cowl removed and strut bar installed



Left mount of Cusco strut



Closeup of markings



Finally everything installed



Final pic with all of my recent adds; Mugen Oil Cap, Mugen Radiator Cap, Mugen reservoir cover, Injen Intake, Cusco strut bar.

I also took the opportunity to wash the engine bay yesterday so I am very happy with the overall outcome!

 

Hope you got ur CARB sticker for the intake. I did

 

I actually noticed that it has the CARB number directly on the intake in this version, I have to double check the box if there is another sticker but I didn't really notice one

 

how much did u spend for all of this? how hard was it to replace it, i'm about to replace my rotors
coz my mechanic is quoting me $347 for a brembo rotor and akebono pads everything installed
thanks

 

Why S2000 calipers on an auto Fit?

 

Looking good Wais.



I think RSB is my next mod.
Gotta get in contact with MicroImage

 

Rotors and pads are very inexpenisve, maybe $65 for the rotors and $75 for the pads.

Took maybe 30 mins to replace both sides since my mechanic had a lift

Thanks Juan, ordered another mod when I was at Micro-Image last week too.
It's an addiction lol!

RSB is a cheap enough addition that it's worth it, will let you know how it goes when I get a chance to really use it

 

I spent some time in my friends Toyota IQ with one of these installed last week and noticed a really nice range of adaptability and throttle control for either a Eco-mode or a more aggressive throttle mode.
