S2000 CR Club Racer Edition CR stands for "club racer," conjuring up the good old days when guys drove their sports cars to the track, raced them, and then, if the racing gods were smiling, drove them home again

Yup! I scavenged the hardtop and the radio door cover from him as well as other parts for my other S2000's.

Very nice! I messaged the previous owner of the parts but he wasnt very communicative... From what tom said wasnt friendly.

His parts will live on!

I mean, I'd be kind of bitter about wrecking my baby too but oh well.

I'm just glad the new owner was an organ donor haha.

***UPDATE***

Previous owner told me the cruise control hasn't worked in a long time... I don't particuarly use cruise control but stuff like that bothers me so i did some research on this issue. It ended up being the clutch pedal that wasn't allowing Cruise Control to engage. I made the adjustment and viola! Cruise Control works. Love it when stuff comes together easy.

Removed the old NVIDIA Q300 Dual Exhaust that came with the car and installed the OEM CR unit back in. Im a much happier camper.

I also managed to turn off the annoying TPMS light. Any warnings or malfunction/error lights in the cluster are a huge nuisance to me and i like things to be right. Previous owner said it has been ON for awhile also which perplexed me since the TPMS sensors are still in the OEM wheels. Took it to a tire shop to have them fix it. All fixed.

Minor update. Big things coming this week.

Im heavily leaning towards a re-spray on the front of my car because of all the rock chips... What do you guys think? I was thinking of re-spraying the whole front end (Fenders, Hood, Bumper and lip then afterwards wrapping her in a clear bra... Rock chips on a black car are the worst and they show up harder than any other color.

Thoughts??

I've opted to do a re-spray but not until after some more work is performed. After the re-spray i plan on doing the 3M clear bra.
