Aye thanks. It's so I can have my phone charged to keep up with your IG posts!
Thanks! Only thing left for the interior is red door panel inserts.
I'm using an NRG hub that allows you to keep the cable reel along with a quick release OR 2.5" spacer depending on my mood.

Mounted my re71r's the other day and took the car out for a spin. The noise I was experiencing on the highway is gone, my Z2's were SEVERELY cupped in the front with the outside depth being 7/32nd and the insides basically at 1/32nd. Might have to look into options for fixing my tie-rods that are pointing to the sky when my car is on the ground. I've looked into the rollcenter adjusters and the steering rack spacers but I'll have to do some more reading to figure out if one or the other or both would help. It's not going to be my alignment (at least I don't think) because I set the car up myself so I know there shouldn't be issues there.

Back when I had my previous built Integra and Integra Type-R they had red door panel inserts and it's something I've wanted to do to my S2000 for quite some time. Now that the exterior is pretty much up to my liking I can keep focusing on the little interior things I like, so I ended up buying some red door card inserts from a local and swapped them into my panels the other day. Pretty straight forward compared to using upholstery glue and making your own skins with fabrics like I did in my old cars, LOL.
Just some quick iPhone shots.

Thanks, guys.
Simplicity has always been my favourite way to approach building a car (yes I went through a ricer stage with my tire stencils and door numbers) and I'll continue to do it with every car I own. While I seriously appreciate the Evasive S2000's and other cars of that caliber I simply couldn't pull the trigger and do it myself, even though I wish I owned one of those cars, hahaha.

Hi. Lets take it back to when I had CE28's on the car and ended up refinishing them 467 times because I was never happy with them, or the size so I sold them in favour for my current RPF1's. I love RPF1's and always will, but the CE28 has definitely always been my favourite wheel for this car, closely followed by TE37's and TC105n's. Recently I stumbled upon someone in the FB classifieds selling a BNIB set of CE28's, in 17x9.5 +47, in bronze and I knew I had to have them. Mind you I still prefer the concave x10/+45 set, but as far as drivability wise I think this size is much better as I literally slapped them on and haven't had to adjust my height or alignment settings. No rubbing either!
I also saw TireRack has a closeout sale on Falken RT615k's in 255/40's so for $450 I snagged them up and mounted them on the Volks.
