I think the CR has stiffer springs, you could try those.

Leaving the front bumper stock without that funny chicken mesh grill would've really made my day. Other than that cars is sick

thanks! the mesh stuff is there because the stupid last owner cut away the oem grills

About the headlights, I'm planning on painting the inside chrome piece matte black, the one in front of the signal lights. not really feeling the ap2`s. especially the price.

I reckon 2004+ tail lights would look good on it.

hi Tan.

thanks, i like your s very much, seen it around the forum.

Chemical Guys products have impressed me so far, but i still have a lot of products to test from them.

guess ill hope for some sort of sponsorship in the future. So keen on giving the car more care and parts.
these S2000´s are incredibly pricey in norway, i payed 44500$ for this one last year, and it was one of the cheapest ones around. Now it will go for about 53000$, but considering the amount of work i guess ill never sell it

Ps: Just bought a set of AP1V2 tail lights to play with
