What the heck is sakudo blue? suzuka blue?

I never like color changes unless its done all the way. Nothing looks worse than old paint peeking at you from door jams, body seams, engine bay, underside of the trunk lid, etc......... If you do it right, however, a color that is not an OEM option to a particular car is fantastic. I get tired of seeing the same colors on the same cars. I love seeing a s2000 that is not like everyone elses. To color change to a different OEM color is a waste of money. It would be cheaper to sell the car and get one in the color you like unless you own the body shop or your car is trashed (low resale value).

I say if your gonna do it, go color shopping. Go to new/used car dealerships. Go to mall parking lots (lots of cars this time of year). Find a shop that will let you go through their paint samples. Find a color that speaks to you and don't let it be limited by the 15 colors Honda uses on S2000s.

Would you recommend buying the invidia exhaust on eBay.

Well, this is not exactly the right forum for this question, but yes. I have purchased many, many parts on Ebay for my s2000 and other cars. Through the years, I have purchased 4 different exhaust systems on Ebay without a hitch. If that is the exhaust you want, I'm sure you could purchase it from a reputable vendor on Ebay for a lot less than in a shop.
