Default SECOND ROUND

Hello everyone I'm back! If you didn't know I use to have a 2003 Berlina but unfortunately slid into a barrier and totaled her. I then moved on to a 350z to try it out for about a year and a half. I couldn't stand it! I needed another s2k. So about three days ago I put my Z up for sale and sold it today, turned around a found a local(5min away) AP2 for sale and bought it! I can't believe it! Im literally in shock to be able to be behind the wheel of another s2000. I will be extra cautious with this one, and try not to drive in the rain if I can avoid it. Lol Anywho I'm now the proud owner of a 2004 Sebring S2000! She currently has 112xxx miles

Future Mods:
get front touched up from rock chips
Sew and patch the three small rips in the soft top... If anyone could direct me to a reputable company around Orlando who repairs soft tops be my guest!!!!
Get rear rim curbage fixed... Again if anyone can recommend a safe way to go about this*****
15% tint.. You need it in Florida
Paint valve cover since it seems to be flaking. oem wrinkle red
Get all new tires and alignment
Replace all fluids in the car, change spark plugs
Possibly ricks one piece floor mats

My main goal is to maintain the car and restore her to MINT condition, I'd rate her at about a 8.5-9. Trying to reach that 9.5-10 mark lol

My only worry right now is that the car seems to shake on idle, but it has a weird k&n intake I haven't seen before- will be putting on the stock box, cleaning Map sensor.... Do you think that will sove this. Maybe a valve adjustment? Like I said any insight would be great.

Most of all: GLAD TO BE BACK IN THE S2K BROTHERHOOD!!!

Man rock chips drive me crazy. I have a silverstone with 101k. Seriously considering getting the front bumper repainted.
