Damn I did not know that Tanabe-San passed away! Still see him on many BestMOTORing vids I watch but those are fairly old now. He was an icon in the JDM tuning industry for sure. I admire his company Powerhouse Amuse and have deep respect for what they do. Excellent products and tuning prowess with all my favourite cars. May he rest in peace

Amuse is epic!

I found this pic from a vendor on the board in the U.K(sept. 2015 posting) saying its for an ap1 but I dont think that there is any difference with the ap2(or maybe this is the difference??)

but most of the things we see are these ones
That looks like a repaired exhaust.

All of my amuse r1's never had that type.

^ that center resonator is the older Amuse design. All the newer exhausts I have seen use the oval center resonator.

Yes but no.
The prices have hiked on them due to a change of ownership within the company.

I can get Amuse parts still but if they're worth the 150-200% price hike.
That's up to the buyer.

I recently purchased an amuse dry carbon hood and the total landed to USA (which I still have to pay shipping for to land to my house) was 5600$ for the street hood.

Why not just go direct with Amuse, https://www.webamuse.co.jp/products/honda/s2000_14/ and contact Jessie Streeter?

Bumpers are very expensive to ship from Japan. Hoods(I've bought 2 from Japan), trunks and wings are a lot cheaper to ship though.
