BB's two Hondas
« on: July 25, 2006, 08:53:52 pm »
Ok finally got around to taking some pics, albeit, kinda crappy ones. I took pics of the Fit before the gf took it to work this morning.

I also added some pics of the CL because I got some new alloys for it. They are Eagle series 169's. I took the pics of the CL while at the cottage this past weekend and it pretty much rained all weekend, so excuse the pics for this one too.

No pics of the Volvo because I lent it to my sister for a couple of weeks.

Anyway, without further a do:

Honda Fit:

Hey BB, thanks for sharing!

I always wondered what your Acura looked like. I like the new wheels. Has your Acura been reliable?

Thanks, the Acura has been fairly reliable actually. I am not the original owner, the first owner was my uncle and he passed it along to me. Since then the rear calipers seized, and I had some trouble with my highbeams, but other than regular maintance it's been fairly easy on my pockets  :thumbup:

That's great. I find, appearance-wise, they age gracefully. And if they're reliable, then they're truly great...

Yeah, non car folk are generally very surprised when they find out that it's a 9 year old car. They usually guess that it's a lot newer than that. It's an interesting design for sure.

 :shuffle:

But in my defence, they WERE taken on a dirt road in crappy weather. Actually you can't really tell in the pics, but it was raining when I took them. I guess I should've at least waited for the rain to wash off all the firt  ;)

Ah well, the rally style look is in  ;D

Oh forgot to mention (and you can't see in the pics) but the Fit is scratched already  >:( :banghead:

Drivers side rear door. A nice long scratch... It's not deep though. I think some of that 3M scratch remover that I have may work. I have no idea how the scratch got there.

Nice stable.  Sorry to hear about the damage to the Fit.  The CL looks fantastic for its age!

Nice cars! The CL's design is very neat - have always liked the back end in particular.

With the water droplets on the Fit, that trunklid shot makes it look like metallic paint.

That's some natural looking garden meshed in your front lawn too  :flowers:

Sorry to hear that. Hope it disappears with the 3M product.

Nope, like I said, my sister borowed it for a while. I should get it back this weekend.

I knew I bought that 3M stuff for a reason, it worked perfectly. No more scratches and the Fit is as good as new  :thumbup:
