My GF's 2012 Blue Raspberry Metallic Base Model FIT

Just thought I would share some pics of my GF's 2012 BRM Base Fit! She picked it up about a month ago or so now and since then I've done a few things to it for her

Simple upgrades for now, nothing crazy. First I ditched the mud flaps and removed the front license plate holder (her request on that). I added the OEM carpet floor mats, OEM rear cargo cover, OEM kickplates, SPORT wheels, SXEXCX custom shift boot and shift knob. Few more things in the works to personalize her car, but again nothing crazy.

More info on the shift knob and boot can be found here:

On to the pics:

Nice! I have seen one or two that color driving around here, and really like the color. Can't wait to see what else you do with it.

Thumbs up

Cool first couple mods, inside and out! I like what you did with the sport wheels, you going to have a custom centercap decal made for them? I've got a guy to do the job for you, drop me a PM and I'll give you the number, I'm sure he'll ship something that small out for you too Also, Ebay has the vinyl inserts for the H on the steering wheel too, he's got blue to match the stitching on your boot, its like $11.00. I did this mod to my Fit (used red) and now have done it to my CR-Z (in blue), nice touch for not alot of money!!!

Welcome to the forum!

Interesting tidbit: I ALMOST bought my 2012 Honda Fit Sport AT in that color. Good thing I didn't, because I thought that color was just a tad tacky-looking in bright sunlight.

I almost did the exact same thing (except mine is manual). Changed to Vortex Blue at the last minute, and I'm 100% glad I did. If I was a cute blonde chick, I'd have gotten Blue Raspberry. But since I'm a balding dude --- yeah ... glad I went with dark blue.

I'd totally buy a Blue Raspberry Fit for my girlfriend, too. If I had an extra $17k ... and had a g/f right now.

^^LOL! You guys are funny. The modding phase has started with her car so give me a few more months and I'm sure the color will grow on most people. I like it because it reminds me of the old honda EG's color.

I already picked up the OEM spoiler and OEM sport sideskirts. I'm in the middle of getting the custom front lip done for the base model as well. Stay tuned for updates!
