The Honda Fit RS debuted yesterday as part of the model’s facelifted range in Japan, taking the place of the sportiest-looking Fit yet. This however didn’t stop Mugen from applying its own body kit, making the Fit RS look almost like a full-blown Type R. The Japanese tuner is also offering a second body kit for the lesser variants of the Fit blessing them with an equally sporty stance.
Mugen’s add-ons for the Honda Fit RS include body-colored front bumper extensions with a red stripe under the central intake and another red accent on the grille. The Honda badge however retains its stock blue/black background as in all e:HEV models, differentiating it from the factory-spec Type R variants.

The Honda Fit RS doesn’t get any wide fender add-ons as you would expect from a hot hatch and Mugen didn’t change that. Instead, they added trim pieces with faux-vent texture, carbon-style mirror caps, Mugen badges on the front fenders, side skirts, and a new set of 17-inch MDE aluminum wheels. At the back, there is a new carbon-style piece between the headlights, a ribbon on the tailgate with faux vents, as well as a prominent rear bumper add-on with decorative inlets and a diffuser.
Mugen designed a slightly different kit for lesser trims of the Honda Fit (Basic, Home, Luxe) with the exception of the adventurous Crosstar, in order to fit on the simpler front and rear bumpers. This one includes the same number of add-ons which surprisingly look even more aggressive than the RS body kit. More specifically the regular Fit gets a carbon grille extension, a more prominent splitter with faux side intakes for the front bumper, a wider diffuser, and a significantly larger rear wing.
The cost for the bumper and side sill extensions (painted) is ¥198,000 ($1,366) for the Fit, and ¥236,500 ($1,632) for the Fit RS, although each part can be purchased individually. If you want the whole package you should add another ¥44,200 ($304) for the carbon mirrors, ¥73,700 ($509) for the rear wing, ¥53,900 ($372) for the alloy wheels, ¥24,200 ($167) for the decals, ¥57,200 ($395) for the floor mats and side window visors, and ¥91,300 ($630) for the scuff plates and protective interior trim pieces.
