hb1320's •GD3/2014 project build•

Ok so I've been on this forum for quite a while now and I've had my fit for since 08 I've had it stopped almost 2 years now. I decided to park it after an incident that occurred one night, I was heading home and rear passenger tired blew up at 85mph lucky no one was around at that time so the fit was the only affected car. Nothing major happened my tail light cracked and my bumper lost most of the paint on that side behind the tire. So I've decided to build the car now and go with a different look. Car was on RPF1s dropped on springs nothing else really. I'll start by putting a picture of the FIT back when it was fine and one know before I get started again with this 2014 project.

Placed order for my wheels they take several weeks to have them build then I'm driving up to get them.

Back then how it looked

While having the car stopped I got bored a day and decides to eliminate the fogs, and filled in the holes and make then smooth.

They will be wrapped in carbon soon I'll post pictures of that later on

Thanks! Used fiberglass bondo and body filler. If you've worked with it before shouldn't be too complicated then

Looking good, I want to do the same thing with the little garnish that you have painted black. I was thinking about PlastiDip, how do you think it would look?

So the guy at CCW told me he hasn't been able to get pictures since wheels are now in anodizing so hopefully in the next couple of days I'll receive something. Up next is Air Bags btw
