Oh just curious how the quality and fitment was? I've really been contemplating purchasing one for my own vehicle, as I really love the finishing touch it adds.... even though it is infact a replicated piece.

I agree about losing the banner. But the garnish looks sick! Was it the way you installed it that it rubs? Or just poor fitment?

Also, how much did it cost to paint? Did you get it done at the dealer?

I beleive you have to pull the bumper but im not 100% sure on that so dont quote me. You would have to do some research on it but im pretty sure that you would. You might want to PM Illusive cause he swapped out his grill for an AJR one. Thats an idea.

I'm that one person. You're right, the new Fit logo is really cool. Now if the weather would just clear up here a bit . . .

And for the record, RS stands for (and this is straight from the Honda literature) "Road Sailing". Pretty corny, eh? I prefer "Rabid Squirrel" myself if Honda's gonna get that silly.

I don't think any picture could make it look good, it'd be like walking around with a giant sign on your forehead that says your name, even though you're wearing a nametag. But hey, whatever floats your boat.
