new from nj sema2014 honda fit builder

hey everyone my name is kenny and as im new to the fit community im not new to the honda community, ive built a few hondas from civics to delsols to accords!! ive been picked by honda of america to modify a 2015 honda fit that will debut at this years sema show in las vegas first week of november, unlike the others im a regular one man operation so i have my work cut out for myself! cars were delivered a few weeks back to the others but i myself have not revieved the fit which again make things that much harder, car should be here tomorrow so as soon as i recieve it ill post pics and do so from here on out till oct 20th which is my deadline.. happy to be here and i hope you guys like the way my fit turns out, theres also a tumblr page where you guys can follow all 6 builds and vote on whos you like the best..

thanks Kenny

Welcome to the board and good luck in the contest. I know you'll have some big competition with Spoon Sports and Bisimoto as your competition. I should be in Vegas during sema with my FIT & hope to see you and your FIT there. Keep this thread updated with your progress this should be fun.

If Honda chose you, among your peers, to represent them that means your one of the best out there. I like the fact that you reached out to the Fit community and will be rooting for the underdog... Good luck!!!!

People hold off on the beer until the Fit is done we want the panel gaps to be straight and the car to actually start....
