Ordered myself a Progress rear sway bar in preparation for when autocross season begins.
I also want to eventually get myself the HFP spoiler, although I'd have to get it painted since it was only officially offered for 18+ models, meaning it doesn't have the right colors for my 15.
Hey new here, ive had my fit for a few months now, I have a 2015 ex manual trans, ive seen one post on reddit about them swapping in the hrv cluster so i decided to give it a shot, it was surprisingly easy took me about 20 minutes, the plugs were the exact same, i had to put the faceplate from the fit onto the hrv cluster, the tabs are pretty brittle i broke two taking it off, only slight gripes is it was from an automatic so the gear indicator flashes neutral and the parking brake light is always on i can only assume due to it being a different type in the hrv, over all im super happy with it it looks really awesome and fits the aesthetic I'm trying to go with in my fit Finished product looks awesome Fit cluster with hrv faceplate on it Hrv cluster with fit faceplate and "glass"
Do you have the part # for the CR-V cluster?
Thanks in advance!
Painted the under side of the spare tire well today. It had a brownish color from the factory and looks terrible with my black paint.
You could see this large brown bulge under the car from behind. Bothered me so much that I painted it. Rattle can job Turned out nicely. Don't mind the runs.

Very nice.
I have some rust spots under the front of my Fit. I'll take care of them in the spring.
I'll have to get some pics and maybe a video when it happens, but I ordered a set of braided stainless steel brake and clutch hoses in preparation for my upcoming 2 year brake flush. I'm also gonna get some high performance DOT 4 brake fluid to replace the old stuff with.
And the sway bar really does tighten everything up nicely. The car feels way better in corners and we've been getting a lot of strong winds lately. I was already used to crosswinds, but I don't feel them as much with it in.
One negative I've had recently though is that my head unit shat the bed on me (stock LX unit). The display works, but it won't output any audio whatsoever. I got a used one on eBay for $120 (good thing the LX units are cheap secondhand) and it should be here in a day or 2.
Very nice. Newer Fits are going to be hard to find.
It doesn't help that barring us enthusiasts, these cars are seen as throwaways. Most Fits I see at the Honda dealer I work at are poorly maintained and/or crashed.

That means a low price, and it could be easily repaired by the new owner.
@Wickedwagon Congrats--it looks nice.
How are you enjoying the performance of those
Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06 Plus Tires?
205 50 R16?
I am shopping for new tires 205 50 R16 for my 2015 FIT EX-L and deliberating between the Continental Extreme Contact and BF Goodrich Comp 2 which I had earlier in the FIT's life and liked.
What do you think of the Continentals for Dry, Wet, Comfort and overall performance?

@SilverEX15 What tires and sizes do you have on your 2015 and 2019 FITS?
Do you like them?
Right now, I have the standard size tires on the 2015 and the 2020. Both cars have Falken - Sincera on one and another model Falken on the other. No complaints. I buy tires according to price and online reviews and comparisons. Sometimes I buy them locally, sometimes online, and sometimes with them installed on wheels. I used to install tires myself, but I found the Fit wheels difficult to deal with, and I didn't want to scratch the wheels. It can be awkward bringing tires to a tire seller and asking him to install them on wheels.
The 2019 was totaled when another car ran into it. The first 2020 was totaled when a deer ran into it.
