Default Billboard has Fit now

I havent been on in a while, mostly cause ive been busy with life; work, busy, other excuses etc... but some of you may remember my wagon or my last car the Element...

wagon


element


anyways i sold the element and got a Fit!!! mainly cause my Wife has a brand new 4runner... so we didnt need to roll 2 suv's. I always wanted a Fit, and its bitchen gas mileage was actually a big part of why I decided on it... I still love civic wagons, but just got sick of repairing them constantly (all the small problems that come with a 20 year old car)... anywho the Fit is the new age wagon- minus rt4wd, total bummer... blah blah blah... cars and yadda yadda...

heres how i picked it up from the stealership....


small mods.
wink mirror.
jdm hazzard switch.
jdm coin dealy.
paint wheels black.
tint.
new oem mats.
oem tow hook.
hood deflector.
mugen visors.
mugen sock.



















not yet installed






i got married!

Contrags for the marriage man

About the Fit, i really like them too, and you're is pretty cool.

Maybe the hood deflector that i don't really like.

Maybe it could also get lower ?

Nice fit! Something about the headlight bothers me I think its because it's color matched with the body color but it's still a dope car! And Congrats on the marriage bro she looks like a keeper to me

thanks sir.
as for the hood deflector, it was actually one of my first mods- a little tricky to find and from what i gather they were originally only offered at Canada Dealerships, however i dont think its OEM manufactured... anywho- i like it and its functional, not just from chips on your hood, but its supposed to flip the rocks/debri all the way over the top of your car- preventing rock chips on your windshield... im not sure if it works, but i like to believe it does...

definetly needs waaaaaaaaay more low!

a very very common mod is to paint the headlight housings black. I kinda disagree with this mod, i like how clean the front end looks with the color match headlights on red and white fits only..... all other color fits should definetly paint the housings black.... again just my opinion- im sure many disagree...

and thanks dude, shes definetly a keeper!

Congrats on the marriage and new ride. I was looking at a Fit but got a 09 Civic LX-S at a killer deal instead. Looking forward to this build.

Yep, that's my car

Also, can't wait for the OEM accessories you have in mind. That's why I followed your Element build. That's how I build my cars; with OEM class.

lols, yeah yeah! link to element build??? and thank you sir...


painted (plastidip) my foglight covers black... Im VERY satisfied, i think they turned out awesome....







relocated my licenceplate to the towhook location and put on my fatlace license plate covers... it covers the corner of foglight, but i think im ok with it for the time being...




there was a hole from screw where the original license plate location was. i went to ace and bought a little plastic plug and painted it with my touch up paint....
