What did you do to the bumper before you applied the plastidip?

It does a good job of creating a protective layer with every surface you apply. It's been about a month since I applied it and it still looks really good |

I had a busy day today.
I installed a new gauge cluster lense (scratched the last one) Installed the black shifter cover from the 2013 models (need to buy the black shift lock cover) Washed the car and also cleaned the interior, too. Interior part of the build is done! |

First of all, nice job on your Fit, and super thanks for sharing. I've seen this thread before, but never really digested it much. Until...
So, this week I got my '03 Mitsu Eclipse GTS looked at as it's been having some issues. Unfortunately, I'm looking at about a $2000 bill for some work, and that just doesn't make any sense. The Eclipse is my winter/storm/beater DD and I've owned it since new in '02. So now I'm in the market for a replacement and have started looking around used and eventually got into looking at new leases on something like a Fit and got really interested. So I remembered this thread so came back here and am starting off my research on whether this will work or not for me. Any time I see a Fit, I pretty much say to myself that it's a nice looking subcompact hatch for people who want that. I'vealso lived next to a girl who had one, and I really liked the look (sort of a dark blue/black color). I'm eyeballing a manual Fit Sport, color undetermined. I don't know how to drive manual, and a lease would let me do so on someone else's risk. The lease is cheap, and I'd probably have a buy-out option at the end if I end up really liking the car. So far, finding a manual version is pretty hard compared to all the autos, but an auto with paddles is not the end of the world. I live in the midwest, so really snow is the biggest deal for my winter DD, and looking up other reviews, seems dedicated snow tires+wheels sounds perfectly doable, as long as I'm not lowering it and dropping the clearance. Otherwise, small vehicle with good gas mileage, surprising cargo space, ability to handle winter, and a relatively cheap monthly cost on a lease has me kinda excited/interested in it. It's a bit of a bonus to know the car can still be fun to drive. (Note: I'm not so dense to not have fun in a small, "underpowered" car that you can toss around; I'll take a Miata over something more powerful than my Z most any day!) And I don't have to dive into the used car market and roll the dice on replacing a car with some big maintenance issues with another car with some big maintenance issues. Anyway, thought I'd share, and say hi! |
