Sweet!!! If only I didn't have to carry a lot of equipment for work, I'd happily put one of those in! I even like the color, although blue powder coat would be even better for my white Fit
Okay, tried installing the GTSpec rear bumper reinforcement but I found out our USDM Fit already comes with a beefy reinforcement for crash protection I guess. I could've removed the steel reinforcement and put the GTSpec bar in (and probably shave off some hefty pounds off the Fit), but I sided with the factory stuff. In a crash steel beats aluminum for strength. Here are the pics from today:
That last shot are the bolts that would be used to attach the GTSpec bar to the Fit. They are tucked inside that steel reinforcement.
Mods: 10 years and 320,000 miles later and still no engine swap yet...
talk about shades of the past...
i remember when you documented the removal of the front bumper of the civic...
as for this...
i did tell you that the fit was constructed like a race car...
the chassis is a helluva base for an AUTOCROSS DEMON!!! HA HA HA!!!
i can't wait to see this thing, even with your compromised (all season high performance) tires, take on the miatas, bmws, and porsches all day at nassau coliseum...
hmmm...
i wonder how much that steel reinforcement weighs as opposed to the aluminum piece...

I'm sure that beam weighs a lot, but I wouldn't trade safety for a mere extra pounds. I'm still waiting on word about the 4-point front lower tie bar. Hope I can get it this week
