Fit used in Rota Wheels advert in GRM

Well, I'd say it's a start. Rota Wheels is using two white Fits to showcase their wheels in one of their advertisements in this months Grass Roots Motorsports. I am hoping GRM will do a piece on the Fit in the coming months, as the car has potential. Perhaps we should start e-mailing GRM and asking them to do so?

Unless GRM has no problem importing alot of the parts from Japan since the Fit has pretty much no domestic(US brand aftermarket parts) available for it then sure I would like to see that. I dont see the Fit gaining a whole lot of aftermarket support here in the US at least not engine wise since the engine is far from being the Fit's strong area. Its chassis and suspension is far superior then its engine, not that theres anything wrong with the engine but its no powerhouse and even with FI, it still will be a low output engine.

I would like to see Energy suspension put out a master flex kit for the Fit. Anyone who hasnt used energy suspension products would be surprised how a simple thing like polyurethane bushings all around changes the car's character towards being much sportier if of course thats something you want.

A short shifter would also be nice from say like B&M, they are the leaders in shifter technology afterall. Little things like this should do alot in the overall picture to turn the Fit into a more exciting car to drive.

I think alot of other companies are going to start using the Fit for many of their product lines

The Fit will be a hit.
It will take some time for the aftermarket to respond to the car.

At the same time though, it shouldn't take that long -- other than bodykits and spoilers, most parts should bolt right on.

No, unfortunately some parts are not just a bolt on affair.

A&J Racing have already done some work on what fits and what doesn't and there's a lot of parts that don't (engine & suspension wise)
