Traded my 07 fa5 for a 2011 Fit Sport w/Nav and I couldn't be happier!
Just traded in my 07 si, I bought her brand new.. and I only had 75k on body and a 55k mile k20a (dc5) that I just dropped in last year.. but it's just too damn hard driving around in a car slammed to the ground and they just don't have legit aftermarket Honda shops out here in Vegas. And I just got a promotion for my job, I'll be doing outside sales so needed something to fit my new lifestyle.
Anyways, I will attach some photos of both.. my fit, I am really into the 15x7 +35 on 205 55 15s look with this car. I already bought some Mugen rep visors, hood bra, black matte window banner, all new 6000k LEDs for the front lights, led for tails, and red badges. I plan on finding a Thule roof rack and possibly down the future lowering springs, but nothing bigger than 1" if I do.
I love Hondas and I am in love with my fit it is so comfortable and the size is so great small yet big
next thing i am trying to do to my fit are putting 2012-13 headlights on my car, and finding the right stance and fitment for wheels. i am actually leaning towards 15x7.5 +35 on 205 55 15 tires with some tein springs or something even less of a drop

Reason: found what i was looking for in the first question i asked
Thanks for the tip! I have been filling my ebay shopping cart daily since i got my Fit lol. waiting for my bra, all new 6000k lights, windshield banner (matte black), mugen rep visors, and other small trinkets like cargo nets, sun protector for nav etc
is there a fitment guide (rims n tires) in this forum i couldnt find it first glance..?
Congrats on the promotion. Ive been wanting to lower my car too, but Ive been enjoying just driving mine on the stock suspension. Its been nice not having to worry too much about driveways, speed bumps, and potholes.
For me going from my e36 to Fit, I had more power on the e36, but as a daily driver the Fit is just fun to drive.

There is a whole wheel and tire sub-forum. They are even broken down by generation, just scroll further on the main page.
6000k is just going to be blue and will have a bad cutoff, leading to reduced visibility for other people. Stick with halogen bulbs like the car came with.

couldnt agree more man! im 36 now and i just dont have the patience for a dumped car anymore lol. and i dont drive fast anymore either so power is not needed, thats why i love my 2011 fit, so comfortable and looks amazing, i am going to just lower it an inch and throw some rims on it and a roof rack and just do things for looks and to make it more comfortable.
and thank you! i am finally going to make some real money for once!

yea i did read something about the headlights blinding people thinking their brights were on... 6000k is more of a white color in my opinion, but i will see how it looks and decide i guess, the 2012-13 headlights fit right into the 2011 right? no modification i believe i read that on this forum

Its funny because when I finished school and started my career i was thinking hard about what my next car was going to be.. then 5 years later still driving my Fit and not wanting to deal with car payments. Even after i had my spark plug issue and swapping the engine out I dont plan on getting rid of her.
