Ohhh emmm gee! god forbid someone does something to a honda... A mass produced one at that. People need to get the sand out of their vaginas. Its a honda, not a limited edition 60s Ferrari. Anyone who mods their car at all (whether it be for track/flush/show) redisgns something that honda did. Meaning you are devaluing your car..... blah blah blah. Cars are meant to be enjoyed by the owner. If the owner wants his car to look good, then thats the main function. Not the track or anything of that sort. Why set up the car to track spec if you never have any intentions of tracking it?
But of course this is S2ki where people think their s2000's are gods gift to earth and are not meant to do anything but be tracked. Maybe in that case we should fully strip interiors/glass/everything electrical? All the extra weight only hurts on the track, so lets give everyone shit who fully doesn't strip their cars.
It's funny how ignorant the "performance crowd" can be.
Also, lets not forget that anytime you modify the engine to gain extra power, you are also most likely losing reliability. Just wondering why i don't see people going into the forced induction threads or the high compression NA builds and whining about how the owner is hurting reliability...
At least the car gets driven. Even if stanced cars weren't my liking i would appreciatte the car more than the people who own garage queens that don't get driven.
Anyways, for the style trying to be achieved car looks fantastic. Always nice to see a nice looking build whether it be for show/track or street.

The s2000 is simply a sport car. His car isn't sport anymore. I understand that you trying to saying that once we own our car we can do anything that we want it to. I'm ok with that.
But you have to understand the other part. In that car the search for "styling" can't perform the purpose of a sport car. The styling is in the eye of the beholder. But there is common sense also.
If you buy a 7 passenger minivan and let only the driver seat and remove the rest. You are free to do it because is your minivan. And there isn't any problem with that
But it's logic to do it??? Can you carry seven person?? I know it's a stupid example but I'm only trying to explain you why there is so much "haters"
Also I don't see the thread owner complaining about the haters. He have answer questions from people that actually like his car. So I don't understand was you are so upset about.

This is Correct. Also though, if you are really cool, your fender will sit in between your tire and the inner lip of your rim, its cool because it does hella damage. hella damage = hella flush. Its funny to do it to a car thats main purpose of performance in corners. Not only are do you damage the car, you make it useless.
What sucks is that when the trend is over, all of these people are going to have messed up fenders and there will be even less quality S2Ks on the road. maybe thats a good thing though, us non retards might hold value better.

When was the last time you were at a meet? Just had a huge one this past weekend near Oviedo.
It's your car-you can do whatever you want to do to it-but be prepared to take criticism.

I personally don't understand why you didn't go with wider tires and less camber but should you honestly give a shit what I think? Didn't think so either Enjoy your car man- you're the only one driving it

Then I lowered it and my fenders are still fine.
Scratches can not be compared to wrecked fenders because of improper wheel fitment. He built the car for show and the damage that has occurred has no longer made it show worthy. As it sits, it's also clearly not road worthy because of the damage that happens while driving.

Whats this shit i smell
I will vouch for Ramon. His ass drove from Orlando, to Daytona back to Orlando one morning, and his fenders came back with no rubber.
The car is driveable, sure he probably can't handle corners at 100+ but shit, i highly doubt he is into all that anyways. The work that has gone into his car is amazing. It really is a work of art.
keep doin what you do.
