Default 500HP Trans Am to an S2K!

Ay everyone! I've been watching the boards for some time now, and I just signed up today. I bought my 2000 S2000 a little over a week ago. I absolutely love it.. I do miss the raw power of my '99 WS6.. but this car is just so much fun to drop the top and get stared at.

I bought the car from a good friend of mine.. he's on here too so if you recognize the car, it's mine now.

By the way, I'm from eastern New York


Here's the car when I first picked it up:












And here it is as of yesterday!















So far I've just refinished the wheels and put new tires on the back.. not sure if I'm gonna do too much. It has a resonator delete and a K&N drop in filter.

Questions.. 1. Is there a way to smoke the front turn signals? (the one in the headlight housing). 2. Has anyone VHT'd (tinted) their tail lights? I wanna lightly tint them.. not BLACK.

Opinions welcome!

Welcome! Nice car, I like what you did with the wheels. I used to own a T/A, my first car. Do you have any pics of yours? Yes you can change the headlight diffusers, it's fairly simple. You have to remove the front bumper and take the headlights out. Then you have to bake them in an oven to separate the lens from the back. Check out Ricks2k.com

Not trying to hijack your thread, but here is what mine look likes with them...

Nice!

Just curious why the trade? I ask that only because a bunch of GM guys around here all hate on honda and telling me to get a GM car lol


I do love the LS motors but I'v always been drawn to honda. It's amazing what a little bit of money can get you in an LS motor
