Some shots from today.

Car is dirty I know, we're getting more rain and snow this weekend so I haven't washed it, but today was a break in the hellish weather we've been having in New England for the past month.

You took my idea lol! Im also planning on taking my spoiler off. What did you use to cover up the three holes that were left?

Two small interior plugs for the outside bolts, there's three larger holes with plastic inserts in the middle. The outside bolts are raised up so I just plugged them with plugs that were wider than the raised part. The middle ones were a little more tricky, I used rubber washers and larger interior clips. Not completely waterproof but it's just as waterproof as it is with the spoiler on. I wanted to paint them but my auto parts store didn't have the VBP, but I kinda like them black as it goes well with the antenna.

Here you can see how it looks just without the spoiler. The white clips were removed which left a good 1/2" sized hole.


Here's the plugs.

Looks good Will. I was thinking about doing independent fogs the other day and just never got around to it. Do it still chime if you've left them on and the car is off?

Looks clean even if it is dirty

Thanks for the helpful post dude.
One more question, where did you purchase those plugs? They look realy nice.

Mx6 - The building is an old feed and grain store from the early 1900s. It recently shut down a few years ago.

Illusive - As for the no spoiler, after taking it off and getting used to it I couldn't have it any other way. It's so much more clean, the sport spoiler just never sat straight with me.

Kelmar (I know you got my name from 8thcivic, and I've had yours before I just can't remember, sorry ) - The car does not chime if you leave them on, however if you hook them up following the DYI here on the forums they will only turn on with the ACC power on. So they shut themselves off when you turn the car off.

Tool - I got them at AutoZone, it was about $2.50 for a 6 pack of the small ones and another $2.50 for a 6 pack of the large.

Thanks! It's still close though.

P.S. - Independant fogs are the best.

how funny^^^ what a small world. That happens alot on this forum


Anywho moving on...
It looks great with the spoiler removed and the bronze colored stockies are simply awsome. I really dig that the center caps were left alone, it kinda gives a good contrast and makes it look more trick/unique.

I am really starting to appreciate the more stock type features of this car...geeee like honda knew what they were doing or something haaahaa.

nice pics btw

I'm not, I'm right around the corner at Bidwell's Yard Garden & Pet (Simsbury Agway) which is also off Hopmeadow / 10&202.

Thanks! At first I liked the spoiler but as I said before it just never really sat right with me and after seeing some Base fits more I really liked how clean the rear was so I finally took it off and I love it, especially with the lip kit still on. I considered painting the caps but it would've been a chore so I left them be since they matched the lug nuts. The wheels turned out better than I thought so I've left them for quite a while but I may pick up some Weds SA90s in a couple months. Also been debating just keeping the stocks and getting a drop since I really think the stock wheels are some of the best I've seen on the Fit, painted or not. Lots of these aftermarket wheels I've seen on it just don't do anything for me.
