Recommended 2 Bike Rack For 2013 Honda Fit Sport Where Trunk Mounted Racks Wont Fit
Question:
Jason, despite warnings that the Hollywood Over-the-Top trunk rack (2 bike) will not work with Honda Fit Sport Models because of cleArance and weight on the spoiler, look at our installation and you will see it works great! Straps do not come close to spoiler contact. Please let other Sales and Tech reps know and perhaps post my picture. Can you send lock accessory information? The over the top Hollywood rack works great on the Fit Sport. Straps do not come into contact with the spoiler. Regards

I reached out to my contact at Thule and they confirmed they do not have any fits for your 2013 Honda Fit Sport Model. They said the reason is the factory spoiler is not strong enough to support the straps. All of our manufacturers exclude the Sport model for this reason.
My recommendation is to use the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # C11064 and then use the Thule Doubletrack Pro XT Bike Rack # TH92BJ which is a confirmed fit along with the support strap # 18050 which is required for the hitch.
