AP1 Owner since.. March?
Well hello all,
My name is Jessie and I picked up my 2002 S2000 back in March I believe. Ever since I bought it, I have been working on it non-stop with most of my free time. I actually didn't plan to buy it at all, but I'm an extremely big impulse buyer. I came across a very good deal (in my own opinion) so I whipped out my credit cards and sold some stuff and bought it. The paint was in horrible condition, it was keyed all around on the right side. Let me get straight to the point, I stripped her down and re-painted her and leveled her out to a good driveable level. The person I bought her from had no idea what he was doing with the coilovers and when I got to it, it was just slammed completely. The rings weren't locked into place and were loose everywhere just bottoming out. I was pissed. I'll have some pictures following the whole process I went through. I named it Gengar because.. You'll see why. Flame me all you want for whatever reason, but just to let you know... I'm the one driving it. So here's the pictures!
The right side is the one that's all messed up. This is the pretty side haha. This was after I got Gengar to a driveable level without scraping.
I started to sand and prep Gengar.
Primered
And House Paint rolled on. yeah yeah I know, WHY? answer why not? Just testing it out anyways. Its a project car, not my daily.
After the house paint was cured and dried. I dipped it. Why? because I was bored.
and lastly, here is how Gengar was after my last dip.
Then I tried to adjust the height for no gap, and I adjusted it too low and slammed it by f@#king accident. I was pissed. But It's higher now but I don't have any pictures.
Along the story lines, I got an Invidia N1 Exhaust, BBS Rims, quick release steering wheel.
And that's the story. Now Flame on!

My stock S2k is low to me so yours looks very very low. It's hard enough for me to get into parking lots. It must be impossible for you. Looks like you are going to have a lot of fun with your car. That color is better than matte black.
