Nice red wheels those!
I picked up my Element locking fuel cap from the locksmith where it was re-keyed to the ignition key and installed it earlier today.
Drove around a bit... no warning lights yet.
$30 to get it re-keyed... ouch... makes this a rather expensive cap.
Now thinking about what I should do next... perhaps get rid of that "meep meep" horn and install the easy plug n' play Accord horn.
I'd love to do the sound deadening mod but I don't have the ballz to be gutting the interior of a brand new car.

Hate how I have to talk louder to the passenger while on the freeway.

Personally, I'd clear coat them (glossy... wheel and decal) before finishing. They would gleam after that. The clear would protect them from chipping better too. Then again, that's only my opinion.
They will look good either way.
Quick...... Pics of the completion, please!

Here are some finished pics, all 4 done and look so perfect in person, it's exactly what I wanted.
garage is small so I cant get any decent pics
Unfortunately its rain/snow here for the next week which sux, but at least I'll get to see how it holds up.
Now it just needs dropped on some Swift Springs and I'll be set

Today, I turned the Fit into a boat, as it flash flooded sections of road all over the place.
First, I was on a road that LOOKED like a torrent (but wasn't too bad).
Second, I stopped at an intersection that was flooded over.
Third, I drove through an underpass... again flooded over (I expected as much here).
Fourth, almost stalled out at another flooded intersection next to my delivery...
Fifth, sixth and seventh floods were all along the same street. There was a cop that blocked the road to prevent cars from going into the flooded areas... except I came from the other direction!!! If someone told me, I would've tried to avoid some of it.
My brakes were soaked each time and I thought water was gonna come pouring into the cabin.
