Default S2K update

Alright for all of you guys that know I drive a Laguna Blue Pearl '08. I'm in the Northwest Arkansas area. I got love tap :/ Stupid chevy trucks >.< It ruined my trunk and back bumper and... the third brake light The S is super duper ugly. So performance parts are on hold.

NO FEAR Carbon Fiber Hood, lip, trunk, and asm spoiler is here!!! D

I'm picking them all up today. Will be taking before and after pictures.

Reason for posting. I feel like I'm not active enough

Also heres two questions. Are there tuners around the Northwest Arkansas area or Arkansas area at all? And is or anyone here good at cutting aluminum? I'm wanting to vent my hood.

Next plans are to save money and boost the car. Hopefully all goes well

Racinguy_21 (Ryan) and Shotgunjimmy (James) can probably answer that as they both(?) had someone vent their OEM hoods.

Sucks about your car though. That had to be a hell of a hit from a truck.

Shotgunjimmy had one of Ryan's friends do it for him. Not sure what the guy charged but the results came out great and looked professional.

yup, was a reasonable charge, especially for the time and care he put into it. ive since sold the car, so i cant show you in person what it looked like, but i can provide pics. best bet is to pm racinguy_21 and tell him what you want. give him your cell and he should be able to pass it along.

Hey man, if you'll pm me I'd be more than happy to give you his number. He is a perfectionist about everything... almost to the point to where it's annoying. His work is top notch.

As far as the tuner situation goes, the only tuner that I know of in AR is Polk Performance in Bryant. They tuned my car when I boosted it and did a really good job. The guys lean more towards anything Nissan and Supra but all of the employees are certified thru AEM so I've gotta figure that's a plus. Anyways, if you have anymore questions just PM me, I'd be glad to help a fellow member.

Just throwing out another option option for ya... Humble Performance in Tulsa, OK. Might/might not be closer for ya. They have quite a bit of experience with S2000s and Hondas in general.

^That'd prolly be a better bet than Polk, either those guys or T1 Racing out of Texas.

Driving would be easier, well depending on where in AR you are at. This guy is located in Hot Springs.
