Hey guys i tried looking everywhere and maybe it is a trade secret but do you have pics of the front brake hose routing?... how they attached it the break shield?

I know they sell the brake duct but any pics of the car without tires or even better no rotors on?

I'm sure many of the R&C guys would love a pic of how they fit those tubes in there

No need to waste time looking everywhere, just ask us!
ASM doesn't connect it to the heat shield, they just route it to the knuckle area to bring in cool air. S2000's usually don't have a problem with brake temperatures so aggressive ducting isn't required.

The ASM Floor Ladder Bars are about 1/4 the weight of the Cusco ones. The Cusco ones are made of steel which rust after a short while being under the car where the ASM bars are aluminum so they're much lighter and resist corrosion.

hey Justin, you might already know this, but the catch can doesn't come with a logo imprinted on it

You already have AP2 tails!?! What are you waiting for?

What's the deal with the rear license plate for the ASM bumper? I didn't know the USDM and JDM mountings were different.

What's the deal with the jdm bracket? Does it prevent you from having to drill into an aftermarket rear?
