Ok, so now i have grabbed a LOTS of freebie´s, made some homebrewed comics my friends love and felt that i wanna move up. Went to Renderosity, Runtime DNA and Daz 3d shops for buying some more professional stuff. Some are quite pricey so i took my sweet time going trough all sites as i know what kinda products i need.
And...my eyes got stuck on THIS item...

...as i want to make comics Conan/red sonja style.
Now to my GOD damn problem. I know very little about morphs etc, so i made a V4, built her up tall, strong etc and the i loaded the onslaught vest. I have now worked for hours! Excuse me for bein a bit behind the wobbler but...there are some small pink polygon triangles under the vest, and when i press on them i can do all kinds of stuff with the vest, really cool. Anyway, as soon as i made a "fit too.." on the V4 char everything went default and i cant do anything anymore, not even highlight or hide the polygons. They make it in to the renders... :(. I have searched everywere...
My main question now is, how do i HIDE them?
Oh, here´s a pic of those pink polygons...

Those pink things are called body handles and you should be able to select them in the selection window to the side, just expand the outfit and they should be there. Once you select one of them, you can tun the visability off or turn the opacity down so they won't show in the render.
Yes, once you hit fit to, it always resets, so best to hit fit to first and then pose.

No man, i tell u, as soon as i hit fit i cant do anything anymore about the pinkish "handles". Everything disseapear and they are non selectable but still visible in renders´n all. Before fit they are moveble, selectable and i can hide them. After fit, nada.

Could be they are made for poser and not DS which might explain it. I have a few items that have those and after fit to I can't click on them, but they are selectable if i use thescene window and expand the item. I do have a couple of hairs that do what you describe though.
I don't have that outfit, but just checked and it says for DS also, wish I could help more.

Handles usually have material zone of their own, so check in the surfaces tab for it and turn the Opacity down to 0%

Ah well, should have gone for poser then. A friend of mine sort of warned me just an hour ago that this can happen.
Oh, thx Bejaymac...that did the trick. Too bad about all the locked morph stuff tho when "fit to". But now i atleast know until next time.

Poser has just as many quirks as DS, I know as I use version 5, 6, 7 and 2012.
One thing to try, in the parameters window there is a small box at top to the right, click it and uncheck show hidden properties, sometimes the sliders that are locked will then show and you can unlock them.
