little intro

hey everybody, i new to the forums as u can see so id like to introduce my 2010 tw fit sport. i picked her up about a month ago and i just broke the 1.5k mark. i finally got a chance to giver her a good wash, claybar, and polish. my first mods were all the interior/exterior bulbs, then tint, and then the black top which was 3 days ago. here it is...enjoy......

oh btw i just picked up some buddyclub n+ coilovers but im stuck on what rims/size/offset to get. maybe u guys can steer me to the right direction.

Why would you clay fresh paint?
Looking good though, wish I had TW paintwork!

As for the wheels, what look do you want to go for?

Where did you purchase all your LED bulbs for your headlight and parking lights, dome light? Are they good quality? They are not HID right?

Your reply is greatly appreciated. I have been trying to find LED but just not sure where to buy them in terms of good quantity and reliable.
