Any pics of blue meter/door switch trim installed?

I was wondering if anyone had any pics of the vivid blue meter and door switch trim installed in their fit. I've never actually seen them installed and in use, and honda's site is certainly no real help on the meter trim pics!

I'm a little wacky, and I think it might add a little more personality to the interior of my fit. Plus it would match those nice blue gauges. I would have also loved a blue steering wheel, but I don't think you can do that on the Fit Sport. Heck, I would love blue ground effects if they were legal. It would make my car look like UFO.

Just wanted some impressions from all the fellow fit freaks out there.



OT- just got 37 MPG in my Fit, only at 6500 miles. A bad day for mileage is getting only 32. I have mixed driving highway/city/steep hill country roads. Pretty darn pleased with the efficiency so far.

I have the full kit painted in VBP. I'll see if I can find a pic for you.

BTW, I might be selling my trim kit soon, so keep me in mind if you are going to buy it haha...

Do they make this kit for the BBP? A purple interior would be sick.

Here's mine, I installed it last week or so.












Illusive, where did you get the other stuff? The chrome rings around the instruments and the blue trim around the door handles and the heater controls (I guess you painted the original parts?) Looks awesome, dude!

What do you guys think of this one:



but using this for an MR Fit:


Maybe a tad too busy? The regular carbon fiber appearance may be better but the wood tone is just a bit too facy for me.

I dont think the woodgrain look works at all in a Fit. Now color matched trim adds a nice touch for sure, wish it came in BOM.

You mentioned the blue cluster in the car. Does that come on every color? I was hoping for red to come with my TW/black interior 09... dohwell

I've only seen that trim listed as coming in red, blue, and silver.

Silver trim might look good in the MR, the NBP, and the BBP. Chrome might be even better, but hard to keep shiny.
