My New Fit ;-)

Well today I installed the sport grill which I had the body shop color match. I have also installed the body side moldings, door sill trim plates, rear cargo tray and rear cargo cover. So time for a few pics of my new baby :D

Congrats! It looks very good with the Sport grille. That's the first car I can remember seeing that was bought from Norm Reeves- I have had past dealings with their Parts Dept. And I have spent hundreds of hours on the 605 freeway going from a home in San Gabriel to a job in Los Alamitos.

Looks good. What brand door protectors are they?

[manxman]

I will bet that the side moldings are Honda accessories.

[jd636]

All the accessories are Honda OEM, all purchased on Ebay from various Honda dealers.

That new style door protectors rather than being completely flat like the original ones looks good.

It all look very nice....I like it.

Tint looks GREAT JD. I never tinted my BOM GD3, and have not tinted my BBP GE8 simply because I live and drive in the perpetual shade of 200 foot tall Redwood trees. Even when I used to drive over to the Carson Valley of Nevada to visit my nearest family, I was not in that baking sun long enough to make me go to the nearest tint shop. But with your color, the tint works as a great contrast accent.

Looks very good. It really makes a difference in inside the car temperatures. Here it's 85-90 degrees in the shade 95% of the time and I can run my A/C at half cold setting and the blower on 2 and it's nice and cold. without the tint when I first got it blower was all the way on at the coldest setting to get the same effect.

The cheap almost opaque Mugen copy vent visors I have on my car surprised me by contributing in addition to the tint in lowering the inside temperatures in my car..... It was a nice surprise since I was just getting them for the vent and reduction of turbulence functions.

And your cheapo shades help keep nasty old water from dripping on your window switch.:p

Water really does drop right onto the switch in my car and it rains so much here during rainy season the first time it happened I was like WTF that sure is a poor engineering job by Honda. Always gets me at the toll booths when the water is running off toward the front from braking and you stop quickly to pay and you have to roll down the window and bamb water comes in after the first inch of opening the window.
