What did you do to the GD Fit today?

22lb seems impossible unless you are running 12x4 wheels with 100/40/12 tires.
i looked online at tirerack and your tires alone in 195/55/15 weigh 18lbs. so could you verify your wheels are 4lbs a piece?

Well it wasn't today, but over the weekend, my friend and I build a custom sub box and amp rack in the Fit. The box looks amazing and the amp rack looks awesome. All I need now is an aftermarket radio to tie it all up.

Did the rear wiper mod. Aesthetically it's not too much better than stock form. But function wise definitely better. No more dirt build up on the blade!!

Such a simple thing that makes such a difference. I did mine a couple weeks ago. The black looks freakin amazing with the blue paint. I love that colour. *thumbs up*

Those are great parts.... Can you tell if they have any effect on the ABS? How many miles did you have on the old ones?

My rotors were oem from factory (50k miles) and oem brake pads were around 20-25k miles with ~3mm left. I had some damage to rotors from having to brake hard a couple weeks ago so figured I might as well swap things out now. The brake pads that came on the car were almost gone at ~25k if I remember correctly.
Drove something like 60 miles today and feels like a good setup.

No d'out Blue to match the hoses and ram air. Turbo'd? Looks Verry Nicce on the out side too!
OK spray it silver let dry tape off the center where the Honda H and Vtech (match the silver to your car color). Get a kandy blue and spray the whole cover untape and clear coat 3x. Show Stopper

Blue would go with every thing else blue, but blues may not match, and that is a problem. Your car is silver so any color will work. I say a jdm textured red would be hot. Or go real crazy with like white with splattered blue or something else. Automotivetouchuppaint.com can get you what you need
