What did you do to the GD Fit today?

Nothing! first weekend that it hasn't snowed that I've done zip to d Fit!
But I did do the bodywork on a '05 Tribune V6 (both rear 1/4 panels dented up a bit) for a family member. Our Fits are Sooo Nice comparing the fit/finish of the 2. Don't complain about our paint! this car the clear is dissolving off the plastic: door handles, r.wing it's all off, front vents in the fenders, & mirrors, it's a good looking car just cheaply made.
Picture off internet, this is what Brandon's did look like new.

Tried to install the skunk2 short shifter kit, then replaced the RFI in frontal plug boots (my iDSI has both front and rear plugs) with four screws.
Results: 2 frontal clips of central console broken and got a terrible fuel consumption this morning (perhaps I should have done a complete ILP)!!! All in all a disaster.

Installed the UltraRacing rear underbrace today. It took some minor fabricating and I had to use longer bolts on one side, but definitely worth it
For some reason only one side was straight (left) so I grinded down the corner on the other side.
Here are some pictures of it on the car:
The clearance is kinda low, but hopefully that wont be an issue.
I cant wait to put the front one in. It does also need to be cut in some places and rewelded but that will be well worth the wait.
Also, after installing the Megan Downpipe I have had this terrible vibration noise due to the poor fitment. My B pipe is right against the underbody of the car, so I had my friend heat it up and bend it so it would stop ratlling. Now no more rattling

Thanks Vinny,
I got the rims in today next;silver base & tangerine Kandy w/ a gold pearl and clear coat the whole rim these are going to be Sick!
They were packed well and even came with covers on them! Center caps which are going to be altered too and something I wasn't expecting a set of hubcentrics to fit the Fit's (73mm/56.1mm) hub, way cool for a set of 4 rims @ 249.00
