I'm looking at doing this
Are the lights connected to the car battery or to another circuit

I have them hooked up to the battery. There's an on/off switch.

Some updates. I took off all the livery because I have a new design in the works.
There aren't many aftermarket parts for the USDM GK5, so I decided to take matters into my own hand and make something happen.
I got the STI S204 lip and sawed off the ends to fit the Fit. Had to take off the bottom piece in the front.
Also bought some canards and winglets from Top1 Motors on Black Friday. I'm surprised and impressed how well they look on the Fit.

That lip looks good. Any pics of how you trimmed and attached it? Can't wait to see the new design you have planned. I'm not much of a fan of anime itself but can definitely appreciate the JDM inspiration.

I don't have any pictures of how I trimmed it. I mounted the whole lip onto the bottom of the bumper first and then sawed off the excess to be flush with the bumper.

I mounted the side skirts today.
The installation wasn't too bad.
Only had to drill one hole in the rear and on the front, had to cut part of the wheel well lining.
The skirts came with brackets that mount onto the pinch welds.

Side skirts look good. Are they for the Fit specifically? Where did you source them?

Yes they are for the JDM GK5. I got them on eBay. They are polypropylene.

Do you have the seller info? I looked for them on Ebay, but could not find them. I really like the look with the side skirts. I've held off on getting mud guards because I knew I'd get rid of them for the side skirts.

Just found these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/2015-Honda-F...NWRlDU&vxp=mtr

Can you show some pics of your mount points? Did you use double sided tape as well? Did it come painted or did you have to paint it.

That's what I thought. I wasn't sure. I'm near Wilmington, in New Castle. Small World!

I'll have to keep this place in mind for any potential future visual projects.
