Sounds like Honda is scared you might show up the big guys and is stacking the deck against you by delaying delivery.... Lol

Do you already know what base color Fit you're getting? And is this a free Fit you get to keep after SEMA?

whoa she lost her virginity quickly.

How hard was it to remove those seats Kenny, and do you know if the cloth can be taken off the seats for those of us who wanna throw on Clazzios or perform future seat mods?

pretty easy, flat head screw driver or panel popper to remove the plastic covers that cover the 14mm bolts that hold seats in place but once you pull seats out of car and turn on the ignition youll need to reset the airbag light!! they look lik covers that slip off but i didnt really look at them 100%

This is the ONLY thing I'm interested in. Nice thread! Keep up the good work Kenny.
Also, once the car is stripped after the show and the possibility of the parts being sold, may I have first dibs at this kit? Can't hurt to ask right?
