Painting the hood and getting the front lip are definitely in the future plans....
BUT.... since i am a big auto-x'er, suspension is more important to me, and i do have a set of 17's for those track days.

As for the seat logos...it is my friends business, and i was just doing my part to help him get things rolling (which he has by the way www.manhattanauto.net)

Now for the eyelids i think they "tighten" up the front end a little, so as not to look so big.

The hood itself is functional for me (again autox) since it does dissipate a lot of heat, and somewhat feeds the intake......for paint...gimme some time as I am a broke (very broke) college student, so i cant just go dumping money into my car all at once, I have to do it bit by bit....its a work in progress.

Thanks anyways, at least i am on the right track to WRS2K approved-dom

oh yeah...for the amber diffusers: I dont really have the time (school, work, etc...) to take my headlights apart (also my only car right now) but i did somewhat take care of the amber part...temporarily!

Now...I know you are not a big fan of this, but it does (in all simplicity and technicallity) take care of the amber.

These pics were taken later today when i got home(after the other pics i posted)

johnny, you're talking to a guy who's been around the block for 3+ years on this board.

to tell me that because you're a "big auto-xer" that's why you're going to lower the car with springs that have way too much poundage for the stock shocks and that the hood plays a functional role in helping you go faster dodging them cones because they cool better and feed the intake better than stock?

that's the biggest s2000 BS i've ever heard. hahahaahhahaahah

and the s2000's front hardly looks big at all in proportion to the car. if anything, it needs to be a bit wider as the rear looks plump as it is.

either way, good luck with college and don't let my approval or disapproval phase you in any way shape or form. i'd personally spend my money on other shit if i were in your shoes. you're taking it well.

OK...i can understand your point on the hood....that doesnt make too much diff in the auto x, but it has helped a great deal with heatsoak to and from school in traffic.

I do agree the front is not big, but rather from certain angles looks high....i dont know...maybe thats just me.

Oh well....Thanks for the good luck..i need a lot of it to get through this semester!!! It is royally kicking my butt. I guess to each his own right?!?!

I have come to my senses a lot more since the last bashing you gave me probably a year ago or so now....as long as im happy with my car, thats enough for me!

Thanks again
John

Johnny, cogratulations on not taking it personally like so many others have.
Ben, I'm surprised you didn't toast his car for the tint. I would have.
