Haha, I'm still waiting for you to be the guinea pig, so I can get my car aligned too! Where did you end up deciding to go?

Eastlake. Same place I got the tires mounted and balanced. The guy is a former s2000 owner so I trust him with my car.

The biggest challenge besides weather and time is what alignment to go with. I'd like a little better crisper turn in like I had with my '05.

Ah is the place called Emerald Automotive and Tire? I'll have to find some time to take my S over too.

Hi! I'm new to S2KI, but I've been around Honda-Tech for probably close to 15 years now, but the s2000 section there is long dead. With that said, I've just picked up an very clean AP1, but the only negative is a single rust bubble at the top of the real wheel arch on the passenger side. (See pic)

Anyone know of a shop in the Columbus area that will even give me a quote? Most just shut me down on my initial call and walk away. The car is beaifutiful, but not a pristine show car, and it doesn't have to be factory perfect, I just want that rust gone. If it comes back in a decade, I don't care.

Thanks!

Go to True Performance in Plain City. You will be shocked what that's going to cost.

Thanks! I know enough to generally double any ballpark price... someone said $700, so I'm conservatively guessing it'll be $1200+ to repair. Oh well, that's the price of doing business. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
