Installed a HKS Hi-Power silent axle back exhaust. Bought it from Kamispeed and took about 3 months to get it. Another FF member who bought the exhaust had an issue with a weld on the nut on the flange but I installed mines with no issues.
Out of the box, came with the exhaust, a decal, instruction manual, and a warranty sheet

BigJoeTX posted a sound clip and review of his HKS exhaust here https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/3rd-...wer-video.html
At idle when the engine is warmed up, it's barely noticeable compared to stock other than a slight rumble. While driving the exhaust is slightly louder and deeper sounding than stock.
Overall, I like the HKS exhaust because it's very subtle and only slightly louder so it won't attract unwanted attention.
The only thing I'm dissappointed about is paying $342 3 months ago from kamispeed and now the price dropped to $304, lol.

Quick Question
Installed a HKS Hi-Power silent axle back exhaust. Bought it from Kamispeed and took about 3 months to get it. Another FF member who bought the exhaust had an issue with a weld on the nut on the flange but I installed mines with no issues.
Out of the box, came with the exhaust, a decal, instruction manual, and a warranty sheet.
Comparison of the stock exhaust to the HKS exhaust
Side views. It doesn't really stick out as much as I would like and gonna have to see if the bumper turns black over time.

Pictures of my full LED light conversion. Pictures don't do it justice though. I also added the LED side mirror winkers. Unfortunately Honda never made it an option for the EX here in the United States. In addition to the winkers, my EX 6MT has heated mirrors too!!

- The DRL and fog lights came together in one complete kit. They are sourced from CHINA. As from the pics, they work 100% on the MDM GK fits sold in NA. For the EX you'll have to get something like this:
New LED Daytime Running Light for Honda Fit Jazz DRL Fog Lamp 2014 2015 | eBay
New LED Daytime Running Light for Honda Fit Jazz DRL Fog Lamp 2014 2015 | eBay
I know the kit you installed will work perfectly. Question. Has anyone tried to install the switchback version of this garnish for the USDM FIT GK?

Get a shark fin antenna from Visual Garage - or somewhere else - and the antenna won't interfere with the load on the roof. Amazon has them now.

I load two kayaks and a bike, so they never cross over where the antenna. I would rather just unscrew it, I dislike the look of the sharkfins :P I think I am the only one who does!

I added a sport grille and painted the inserts and emblem white orchid pearl to match:
I painted the rear garnish WOP and the emblem black:
I only have about two more things I want to do and I'll have it how I want it and I'm done messing with it

I want to put a strip of tint, maybe 3" wide, along the top of the windshield and on the tops of the front side windows.

If you look at the top of the windshield along the side there's a pointer arrow. This marks the A line and in some states it it legal to tint up to a specified %, although some states do not allow windshield tinting at all.

Thanks. Interesting. "Ignorance of the law excuses no man."
