Doing an interior swap (including the dash) crosses that "way too much damn work" line I think black would be the better option as I've always thought the tan interior Honda offered in North America is too light


Oh, so now it's a "work" issue? Psh. . .

Krylon Blue it is. . .

Don't get near me . . . you might be carrying more diseases than me. . . and that's saying something.

They turned the AC on for no good reason. My nipples are rock hard right now, and I'm cranky.

Repainting the car is someone else's work funded by me. Swapping the interior..all my work, along with sourcing a good interior to use. On that note, paint is much easier to find than a black AP1 interior in shape as good as my blue interior.

Time sir, for a custom color. Go through the PPG catalog and have fun.

Take West Side Cranky with you.

I just assume go for laguna seca blue and put an interior swap on the long term to do list

I like lighter colors, don't want red, yellow, black or silver and would *like* to keep the color close to suzuka because most of the engine bay will stay that color...which rules out something like imola orange.

Yes. I'm assuming you've seen Deuce Bigalow, so I suspect you know how this is going to work. . .
At this point, I wouldn't rule it out

I ain't whining. It never hurts to ask. Especially in an ask unkiet thread

I think the requirement is borne more of laziness on the part of managers than necessarily any real benefit of the degree. There are exceptions...but as a rule, college simply proves that you can stick it out through a drawn out process and achieve a given goal. It's easier to compare college degrees than it is for managers to distill a variety of "apples and oranges" experiences.

That, and it's simply another way to set management apart from the "commoners"...
Ironically, it's managers (especially at the bottom and top rungs of the management structure) who least benefit from formal education. At the bottom rung, you're basically dealing with converting work statements into units your non-management peons can do.

There's no training to turn a lousy first level manager into a good one.

At the top rung, a manager (CEO/President type position) is principally involved in vision and strategy. You can't teach that, either. Some people are good at it (see: Jobs, Steve or Gates, William) and some people aren't (see: Fiorina, Carly).


Everything in between is basically pushing shit into different piles, which is something that one can be trained to do well... even if you're a monkey.

Do you like or dislike this color on the S2000?

I'm not a fan of this shade (too "smurf blue" for me), but the only way to pull it off is with gunmetal wheels.
