I should stop being lazing and get my ASM rear bumper painted.

Yeah I'm really glad I switched. Not only with looks but they fit a lot better too. That plus the alignment from West End has made a huge difference in terms of everything.

My rear bumper rubs just a tiny bit over really hard bumps at speed, other than that I don't have any issues. I've been thinking about switching to a 10k/10k setup, I'm still running the standard 10k/8k that the Ohlins come with. I think that will make a pretty big difference as well.

And yeah, get it painted already!

Great thread. I noticed pics of ITBs on Instagram. Are they going on your car? Was curious since 06+ is DBW.

Haven't been on s2ki in forever, sorry for not responding sooner.

No, not putting on ITB's. I was in LA for a couple days in March and stayed at my friend Anthony's house, he had a s2000 but recently sold it but kept a bunch of his parts including his ITB's. Took a pic for fun.

Just thought I'd update this thread...
In the process of parting out and selling everything. Replaced it with a M2C. On to the next thing!

Everything non-stock is now sold (except my lugs but might use them for display in my garage) I was surprised at how fast everything went. It's definitely true that you make more money back by parting out!

Car fully stock will be for sale in about 2-3 weeks.
