Expert Reply:
The Surco Safari Rack 5.0 Rooftop Cargo Basket for Thule Roof Racks, # SPS5084-T400, will work with all Thule roof racks including racks compatible with your Honda Fit. The only problem you may encounter is in the access of your rear hatch due to the overhang. I would recommend a smaller roof rack if it weren't dependent on your painting size. This rack will fit your paintings even two of them stacked within the 5" depth of the carrier, but they will be exposed to wind and weather without proper consideration. You may also want to get some straps like, # 317-412080.
If you don't already have a Thule roof rack, I've included an article on roof rack information as well as a fit guide. If you respond to me with the year of your Honda Fit, I will help you find an appropriate roof rack for your vehicle and this cargo carrier.
