Will be placing an order for a Sport Grill and buying black mesh for the DIY Grill Guard mod. Will get pictures up once I finish.

"Games of Thrones" fan, are we? A Fit would be great for transporting baby dragons.

Indeed we are.
I would gladly transport baby dragons, as long as they don't set the upholstery aflame.

As for the FitFreak decals. I got it here.

I guess that calling your car "Daenerys Stormborn" would be a little unhandy, so her title works better! Congrats on being a reader. I can picture George R. R. Martin driving a Fit. Also, Tim Bostock of TFBDesigns.com makes good stuff!

I think the base models are the same for 09-12.

Great Fit so far!

This is correct, the Base model Fits have the same bumper as 09-11 Fits.
2012 Fit Sports have a new improved bumper. This is coming in handy as far as shopping for upgrades goes!

Thanks for the feedback!

I have not frequented the Stock yards as much as I should have been these past couple years. However I'm not seeing anything on Google in Ft. Worth. So that leads me to believe it may be a thing of the past. They do have a place called Riscky's BBQ. Pretty dang good! All you can eat ribs for $10.

As for Mansfield, I do frequent that town. Probably love Mansfield more then I do Burleson.

Well no matter. I bet you Billy Bobs is still standing and the White Elephant for sure. You see back in the early 90's when I was there I was in my "early-early" 20's and I was from Canada you see and I wore Green Doc Martin boots with yellow laces and the early grunge years get up. So I get to Texas and the girls look me up and down and well....it was lonely until I got myself a proper set of boots and nice jeans and a shirt....and I had to learn to Two Step just to get on...Manners mind you....never forgot how to two step...or my manners. I'll never forget Texas....and that girl from Mansfield? Well her dad was never going to accept a kid from Canada....no matter how much I tried...Paige Reed (or Read) was her name. The old man owned a gas station and some acres of land with some cattle. Some of my best memories.

If you ever need advice let me know. If I don't know the answer I know someone who does and I will not lead you down the wrong path.

You are correct Albert, Billy Bobs is still around. In fact I believe there are 3 of them now. I too have a lot of fond memories here. Some of the best times of my life, and some that I hold filled with regret and heartache. But I still like it here, even though the heat sucks.

Update: Added Sport Grill
