Name: Matt
Location: As of July 2008 - Montreal. I will return to Van-City one day!
3 Favorite Mods: My Stereo, T1R Intake and Spoon N1 Exhaust. My intake and exhaust add much needed power to my fit and the sound they produce is very nice and not too ricey. My stereo is aftermarket but I'm still using the stock speakers which sound great in addition to my 12 inch sub.
Bio: I traded in my 07 Civic Coupe (EX) for the fit and never looked back. The fit has more personality and is so much more fun to drive then my civic was. I love having the 4 doors to load up all my friends and I've used my fit to help move a few different people. Next mods are probably coil-overs and a cf duckbill spoiler. Maybe some side markers or turn signal mirrors.

2) Lawrence (aka "Air-Bags")
3) Richmond
4) LED Engine bay, door sills and trunk. Carbon C-pillar, Carbon Engine cover and Intake. Engine looks SICK!
5) I used to drive a tuned 2000 Toyota 4Runner. (Headers, full custom dual exhaust, 40 Series Flowmaster mufflers, K&N FIPK intake.) It was $90/tank when the gas was under 80 cents a litre. I was only able to dive at MOST, 280km. I needed something cheaper on gas. In comes the Fit. $40/400+ km! I'm a Carbon Fiber FREAK! I've got carbon everywhere!

Name: Andrew Caie
City: Surrey, B.C.
Mods: My favorite mods so far would have to be my rims 16 inch enkei rpf01, which I am still waiting for tires. JDM window visors and eibach springs. I just bought the fit almost a month ago and I love it. I sold my ek hatch because I wanted something mor practical for my son who is 2 and a half. At first I was gonna leave it stock but the honda mod bug got me and now who knows when it will end for the fit. I dont have any pics of the fit yet because it is bone stock. besides the jdm window visors. but I will post a pic of my old hatch. Which was my baby and had to many mods to list.

4. Favourite Mods: I just recently got my car, but for now I guess my three favourite mods would be air freshener, red honda emblem and razo aluminium shift knob.
5. Bio: I just pick up my car recently like I mentioned before, but I'm really looking foward to modding it after break-in or so. I use to drive a 91' civic hatchback and I thought I needed something way more reliable and also fun to drive for getting to work, or getting to school OR going out so I thought about the Fit and, I also didn't look back. I haven't seen any blue Fit Sport anywhere other than AJR-COW, so I'm really happy that I'm one of the rare blue sport. heh.

Name Combo Turbo
City Richmond (Bridgeport & No. 5 area)
Favorite Mods HKS Turbo Kit stage II, Trust E-manage Ultimate, maybe k20a swap, oh and mugen ss, and maybe LSD if i could find a decent one
Bio I have been dealing with cars for about 8 years now, the Fit is really just my minivan (i removed my rear seats, stripped everything down in the back). My garage vehicle right now is my Brabus CLK (i doubt anyone here has that background to know me hehe). My previous daily driver was IS300 but it was totalled. I'm also very involved in RevScene. I could probably go on forever but I'll stop here. Oh, I'm also purchasing a EvoX soon.

City: Chilliwack
3 Fav. Mods: T1R Short Shift, hope to soon acquire T1R Response Header and following exhaust as well as some light weight rims.
Bio: I would not be driving this beautiful BBP FS if it were not for living in SK first. The '90 Corolla that I was driving got the salt cancer and was taking on water (literally). Then when I crumpled the front end ICBC said they would pay me $1500 to take it off the road. Long story short: Drove the Fit, Loved it, Happy to have lost the rusty bucket of bolts

Location: Vancouver BC, but i'm in richmond most of the time
3 FAV MOD:
-front LEDs (as a base model driver, that's what others look for to distinguish my fit from others)
-DEPO smoked tail lights (DIY FTW! even though my arm was stuck inside where all the wiring was for 30 minutes
)-15" Matte Black BuddyClub P1 Racing SF
BIO: '07 Fit used to be driven by my older brother. As I got my N, I started driving the fit more and more cuz my school is all the way in North Van. My bro made the Odyssey his daily driver until just a few weeks ago, he traded it in for a white RDX. I took the base model fit and made it nicer. It may not have a sport lip kit, or paddle shifters, but I love it more and more as I put more and more mods on it!
