Waiting for my 2015 Fit LX, open for ideas

My hometown is just east of Toronto Ontario and I am currently living in Collingwood. I am waiting(ever so patiently) for my Fit, it should arrive within the next week.

I have looked into modifying it but unsure of what to do.

Rims are a must, but it'll be a springtime purchase due to the time of year.

Anything I should consider with the 2015's?

My suggestion, first thing to add after picking it up from the dealership: i-VTEC DOHC stickers.

Yes... The new 1.5L Earth Dreams engine is DOHC. So that Civic Si sticker is completely legit.

How about drive the car a while and see what you think needs improvement?

The first "mod" I make to any new car is to put light beige seat covers on the front seats to keep them cooler in summer and to protect the factory upholstery, but that's me and it may not be on your list of priorities.

This helped a lot thanks!

GeorgeL The Forum Topic is "open for ideas," and I do plan on driving the car for a while before I know for sure what I want to do.

And on that note, I have never modified a car before so this is all a foreign concept to me(I am learning!).

I essentially was curious as to what people were doing with their fits, the LED swap, window tint, and new rims I am going to do for sure.

Thanks everyone for their help!

I would also recommend the Cargo Tray - The cover for the spare tire in the cargo area is really cheap - almost about the consistency of Cardboard - the tray adds a bit more support and will also keep it clean...
