Thanks Dennis! The paint itself is great, however they did not blend into the hood and doors like we had discussed during the quote. Also they didn't take the lip off to paint the front bumper, so under the lip is still sebring silver...that I'm actually shocked about, like who does that? Anyways I'll be taking it back because they were going to reclear the lip and I need them to fix that as it's completely unacceptable. A few other minor details, I don't think I'm being overly picky

Got around to doing a couple things I've had sitting around forever

I wrapped parts of my center console with 3M dinoc. Looks pretty good. I rate myself 8/10 on the job.


I also ended up installing my blackvue dash cam. Didn't take any pictures but I was seriously surprised at how easy it was to install. Very easy to reverse as well! Did this for the peace of mind to prove an accident of some sort if it did ever happen

Did this a while ago but finally got around to posting pictures. Had my downforce side diffusers removed when I installed my downforce from fenders so I finally got around to installing them

Before:


After:


The double sided tape came off easier than I thought. I ended up finding a technique that worked pretty well. No need to drill these into your car


This is some tape residue leftover on my headlight from paint. I can't seem to find a way to get it off. What's the best way?


Edit: Just noticed how bad the fender lines up ^. Need to fix this

Had to use up my vacation before our fiscal year ends October 31st, so I decided to take today off and give myself a three day weekend. On the agenda was some S2000 maintenance. Did and oil change, dusted off the engine bay and checked the levels of all of the other vital fluids Got this shot of the engine bay with the ASM front bumper. Still such a sexy car.


I am running TE37SLs and so subsequently do not have any center caps. That has made the axle caps (proper terminology?) rusty


I got some VHT wrinkle black paint to try and mask the problem


Put her away for another year. A little earlier than I had hoped but I spent a solid 6 hours cleaning everything today, and didn't feel like cleaning her again in a week or two.

I did the same thing to my rusty centre cap. I hit it with a Dremel to get some of the surface rust off then used some black Tremclad that I had in the garage.
