My Fit (Felicia is her name) on the up-and-up!
It's Last Station Powerbox. A chambered intake. I didn't want cold-air for the fact that it hurricanes like a mofo in Florida and gets really flooded. It cost me somewhere in the $300s off of some dude from Japan on ebay. I'm sure you can find one there. I'm apparently the only one with an orange one. Everyone else has red and I dunno the difference lol

I just had that feeling...having seen a few bases in my day...
And knowing you are in service...kinda gives it away...
That's a decent space, but you can still get bashed from the front and behind...not to get you paranoid or anything....I circle in lots trying to get that corner spot and then cozy right up to the curb on the left side...so there's about 8' between me and any other car that might park next to me...I'm freaking nuts about not getting dinged!!!
I went over to my sales guy's lot today....to buy some touch-up paint...and then I took photos...and went into the showroom to look him up...I didn't tell him I had bought an 08, he couldn't find me one no matter what back in August.....so I chatted w/him about the 09s (which look better in person, I am going to post photos) for a few minutes....and then I said, "Do you want to see my Fit?" He was shocked! And LOVED the brake light, spotted it right off...
I saw a VBP, a OR, and a BBP. All were just fine. It's not the same car, but it's another great car from Honda. I'd buy one, if I didn't already have a car I LOVE. I don't know how they are going to look modded, b/c to me they still have too much Civic to them, but I will go into more detail in the other thread.

lol I only parked there because it's the spare parking lot and most people don't care about their cars enough to park there. If I parked all the way in the corner, someone would DEFINITELY just park next to me, knowing I parked there to be away from people. Didn't wanna be that obvious lol. Yeah I can't wait to lower/exhaust my Fit and go to the dealer for some touchup paint I need also. Last time, some salesman with a Russian accent came outside when I was about to leave and gave me all kinds of compliments on the mods (everything minus the taillights) and he even took some shots of the front and sides lol he really loved it

Mugen shifter on left:

JDM center console + Mugen shifter installed:


So crisp and smooth and positive throws now! Neutral is firm and not easily jiggled anymore! Much more confidence during shifting. I'm glad I got around to doing this but there were times when I was getting furious. The cotter pin took me a good half hour to get out because I didn't have tweezers. Used the flat edge of a screwdriver lol Also I broke the shiftboot so although it looks fine in the pics, it's not attached except for one flap. Good thing I'm ordering T1R shiftboot this week yeah? Overall process took me about 3 hours from start to finish. I had my laptop in the backseat with the college hills console video and the mugen shifter DIY page from fitfreak. Both were excellent guides! Next up, retrofits :P

FX35 retrofits installed! Minor issue, the driverside signal-light halo does not come on. Also, it seems the highbeams don't put out any more light than the lows. All it does is turn off the halo rings. Did the installer guy **** up wiring? I'm not paying more money to have it fixed. If one of you knows what the issue is, please tell me so I could tell him he ****ed up and make him fix it for free!


hard to tell but the signal halo works on passenger side:

driver side signal halo not working:

highbeams turn off the halo rings:

someone please help! I want real highbeams, and I want the driver side signal halo to work with lowbeams!
