Has anyone ever install a front bumper camera? This might be a newb or silly thing to think about but with the S2000 front end being so long, sometimes it's hard to judge when to stop when pulling into a parking spot to avoid scraping or damaging the front bumper especially if the car is lowered.

The screen for a rear view "mirror" is cool and all but with the camera mounted all the way in the trunk don't you lose some visibility/ have a bigger blind spot?

I've never seen a front camera mounted on a S2000 with this purpose in mind. This system might actually be better fit for your application.

have a search about multiple camera kits for cars, which can record forward and backup or on all sides, I think it is helpful

If you want to go a little cheaper you can buy a black and white back up camera. Install a few infared bulbs and the night vision will work flawlassly. Infared is naked to the human eye but can be picked up by video cameras, therefore it will look like the whole ground has been lit up.
