Weird Argentinian Fit (with pics)

Hi guys, first thread. This is my 2006 1.3 no vtec, single airbag, 84hp, no fogs, no spoiler, no sideskirts, weird dash fit

hehehehe

its a lot different from the USDM Fit, and I would love to know if I can swap the dash with a 1.5 USDM fit (just in case, if you know ... let me know)

this kind of makes me wonder if parts sold as "JDM" are truly from Japan.

don't waste ur time on the dash kit. it's the same dashboard as the fit in the phillapeans and we have test fitted that dash kit and it doesn't fit. Contours are different. What you should look into is the map lights between the visors, those ppl will buy. =] But wash her plzzzz. =]

I'm more interested with the door guards, usdm fit should have gotten that. Anyone knows how can we get one in US? Should help with the thin paints that we have. How many km do you get with a full tank with 1.3l engine?

Got lost when I tried to convert it to english system.

How about many total km can you go with a full tank of gas before filling up?
EXWRX- thanks for the heads up. I'll look in to that, but I want the real deal JDM door guard
