So clean....I would eat off your car.

Are you looking for wheel suggestions in particular? I like something like the weds sport SA70 (see below). Other than that it's pretty much perfect...maybe add some winkers?

looks good. yours is so clean. its pollen season where i'm at right now so alls i can do is rinse it off with water every couple days. can't wait all the pollen to go away so i can wax it and make it all shiny like that.

Smile Nice!



That's a nice panda/penguin look you've got going on there with the black & white. Very creative.

daaaammmn, looking good! Did u get a plug for the antenna delete or is it just open, kinda hard to tell from the pics.
You should paint the bottom of the rear bumper to match the hood, I think it would tie in real nice.

Reako : I LOVE those wheels, do you have any rubbing issues? I really want to get a set but am unsure...they're 17x7.5 correct? PM me if you want, don't wanna jack this thread.

Thanks for all the kind words guys. The roof is vinyl wrap. I plan on doing the bottom part of the rear bumper too. And I just left the antenna hole open. Looking for a plug. I still get perfect reception and it looks way cleaner. I really need a CF wing to compliment the roof.

Those look nice reako. Im so undecisive about wheels. I might consider getting some winkers too.

Thinking about going with gold or white wheels. Something bright to offset all the black. Or should I go all black?

Looks great man, I like the black roof. I am thinking of doing it as well, but plan to paint the spoiler black too.

Last week i decided I wanted a panda fit.

with black headlight housing and black vinyl top.

not kidding.

I am planning on black insight mirrors too the rims i want are the ssr type c's (but they are black)

your car looks awesome.

btw, bc of you, i bought (and used) sheep's wool mitt, 2nd bucket, and waffle weave towel. much better results.

Great Im glad people are starting to take care of their Fits and washing them correctly. Little things like that make a big difference.

Also I heard the insight mirrors wont work. I think I might get black winker mirrors or just wrap the stock ones in black vinyl. Theyre starting to stick out like a sore thumb to me.
