I do apologize for the quality of pictures

Thank you for looking!

 

Nice! Very clean, I imagine your car is very fun to drive!

 

I look forward to my daily commute everyday!

 

Looking good.

 

Very clean build, exhaust sounds great

Can we see a clearer pic of your door cards? That's a really good idea to make them red

 

Thank you guys for the kind words!

@Waiz, here are some more pics of door panels.

I followed the DIY from here:
https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/2nd-...l-cutouts.html

Purchased the material from here:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Jersey-Door-Inserts-Honda-Fit-2009-2012-09-10-11-12-JDM-GE-GE8-/111368139194?hash=item19ee0ef1ba
This item comes precut to fit, but if i were to do it again, I'd most likely get better material, remove stock panels trim new material to fit myself and apply using the DIY.

 

very nice

 

No updates?

 

Have been battling with exhaust rattle!

Installed a few pieces of the cf dash kit but need to get the navi console to complete it.

She's helped me move to a new residence last week, that's 2 moves now under its belt and I couldn't be happier with how much stuff I can cram into this thing!

 

Here are a couple pics of the incomplete cf dash kit, still contemplating on getting a double din setup so I can complete the full kit.
Also planning to paint the mirrors sometime in the future.
I will be taking the Fit to Blue Ridge Parkway next week to test out the suspension! Looking forward to it, hopefully the OEM brake system can take just a little bit more abuse before I change it out!

 

Man those door panels are sick! To bad the DIY pictures are no longer available.

 

Agreed! Really loving how they look.

 

Loving the carbon accents!

 

Thanks for the positive comments guys!

As far as the DIY for the door panels, once you get the panels off, it really is simple, albeit time consuming.
This is the one I followed and it seems the pics are working for me

One thing I did not follow from the DIY was the amount of adhesive used, the OP stated to spray both fabric and panel, I however just sprayed the panel since 2 layers seemed excessive. They have held fine.


Here is a pic of my travels last week to the smokey mountain foothills, I did not go to the Blue Ridge Parkway as I had planned because it would have taken much longer to get to and I have yet upgraded my brake system.
Took Hwy 60 from Ga to Tn, then Hwy 64/74 to Chattanooga. Hwy 64/74's scenery by lake Ocoee was AMAZING!!





Hopefully next time I go, I will have a GoPro with me so I can take a couple of vids of the wonderful winding roads.

As far as the handling goes, the Koni/Swift/Progress RSB setup did not disappoint, I encountered little to no understeering through the switchbacks and hairpins, and the rear felt planted and confidence inducing! Exiting the corners under full throttle never felt so good!

Can't wait to get the brake system upgraded for the next trip!

 

Wow those roads look amazing!

 

trade you my OEM GD3 sport wheels for yours rpf1 plus cash?
pm me. Im in Gwinnett County

 

How is the ride with the Koni/Swift setup? That's what I was thinking of going for.

 

It's good for the price point. Been riding hard on this setup for over 2 years now without issue. If you can, get a rear sway bar upgrade also, it won't disappoint

That's a good looking Honda Fit.
You know, I don't want to upset my fellow 3rd Generation Fit Owners, I now own a 2016 Honda Fit EX. BUT.....

I have to say, there was a lot I liked about my 2nd Gen Honda Fit.

I just think I liked the interior better. The new Honda Fit Dash is beautiful, but very, very mainstream. Very much in line with all the Honda family of products. When I sit behind the wheel, and look at the dash, I feel I could be sitting behind the wheel of nearly any generic automobile. Really a nice gauge and instrument cluster, really a nice layout...but nothing particularly unique about it.

I always felt the 2 glove box kind of free flowing wave design of the 2nd Gen Fit was different and somewhat unique. I liked that it didn't look like a lot of other products.

I also kind of liked the more slot car feel of the 2010 on the road. Perhaps a little less comfortable...but a little more fun to drive.
Don't get me wrong, I love my 2016....but Honda did get a whole lot right with the Gen 2.

 

I actually drove a GK before deciding on my GE. The dashboard design in the GK really turned me off for some reason. I also hated how much headroom the sunroof on the EX ate up.
