DIY: OEM Big Brake Kit

DIY: OEM Big Brake Kit
Did a quick search on this and if it's already been posted, my apologies, I didn't find anything nor saw a sticky for it.
I had this DIY BBK done on my previous 2 Hondas, Integra and a Civic and it's a cheap reliable upgrade.
Has anyone done this to their Fit yet? I will be trying this come Spring, I don't see why it wouldn't work, the front brake system is the same size as the Integra. Anyone know if it will clear the Sport rims?
Parts Needed:
Calipers from Integra Type R Front, remanufactured. Any 97-01 Acura Integra Type R.
Rotors from Mini Cooper 4x100, 280mm diameter front
+ your choice of pads
Some how to threads already:

I wish the Fit had OEM rear disc setup and not drums. If it did the rear upgrade would use RSX Type S rear calipers with EP3 Si Civic rear discs.

If I remember right the ITR/CR-V front calipers would barely nip the factory GD Sport alloys. Give me a second and I may be able to find the DIY.
