Default IIGQ4U's Latest Build Updated 12/09/07

Hi all,

As of late, I have been wanting to change up the car a tad. A little bit of the work has already been completed but there is much more to go.

What I have attained recently are BBS LMs 17x8+45F and 17x9+42R, Amuse front bumper, INGS+1 rear bumper and Spoon calipers and a dual exhaust (Not yet installed). I am planning to do a lot of little things to these pieces to differentiate from the norm.

BBS Wheels currently have black centercaps as well as rivet bolts, I will be replacing the black centers with red caps with BBS lettering in gold. I will also be replacing all of the black rivet bolts with the gold ones seen below




Amuse bumper and INGS rear have been completed and will be shown later on.

On my dual exhaust, I am planning to fabricate a plate that says either S2000 or my screen name and weld where the pipes Y... I need help on which to choose.

The Spoon calipers have been fully disassembled. I am having the Spoon calipers anodized gold and will maintain the Spoon logo in its original aluminum finish. The Spoon calipers should be ready for reassembly tomorrow. I will post photos once they are in my possession.




I am currently attempting to source a set of AP2 taillights so that I can perform the conversion but I have not had much luck as of yet. If anybody is willing to help, please let me know.

Small parts such as smoked side markers will also be added and the windshield tape may be removed but I am scared.

I will top everything off with a hardtop. I will be painting the hardtop and will only expose the 1x1 carbon fiber faux windows. I have also created a glass window which will be installed onto the hardtop (No photos yet, although the glass is ready for insertion). I will most likely tint the glass 20% since there is not much to see beyond the glass anyway.

I am sure that I am forgetting something but if I remember, I will update the thread. I will also update the thread with various photos of the individual parts before installation.

The photos below are of the car in its current state with the Amuse Front, INGS rear and LMs.














Sorry for the long post, just thought I'd share.
