but honestly i think you're trying to hard man.
Ebay exhaust, skinny tires,yellow emblem, & those tow hooks arent made for s2000s if you havent noticed they are suppouse to be screw in tow hooks, & you should have just saved up for Work CR kai they are about the same price.
other than those things your doing good man.

As for the haters, I dont really care about what they say.

But anyways. Everyone is intitled to their opinions. Feel free to share them. All I ask is that you dont cast judgement till its finished and you can see the car in its completed form.

Haters gunna hate, everything on my car is done budget, nothing wrong with Ebay
And i think painting the badges yellow is a very creative idea to see how the car will flow...hell from a distance its the closet thing you can do compared to shaving.

Ya i wanted something different. People shave them, but i kinda wanted that look but not really. Ive seen people paint them black, but i didnt want them to stand out like that. SO i decided to try something alittle different.

I'm interested in pics of body colored emblems too...it's not something I'd do, since mine had black chrome when I bought it I kept it that way on the new bumper, but it sounds like a neat idea...

can't wait for the

Plus u have a great way of taking your photos Gizmo, every time it looks professional. What kind of camera are you using?

Whats the ETA on the car being completed with all these upgrades. I think the yellow with dark blue wheels looks great but everyone has their own style, its really about what you want.

its really gonna be hard to say when it will be complete. I hope to have the wheels done this week. The body parts will be installed this weekend. Unfortunaly when we did our first test to see how close the parts matched it wasnt that great. Most likely there will have to be some blending. Not to mention the part of my rear quarter thats dented in that has to be fixed. Will post a pic of that tomorrow. So i would say, HOPEFULLY 1st week of April. Im just as anxious as yal are lol.

Im using a Canon Rebel T1i w/ kit lense. I do edit ALL my pictures.


And on the wheels, i think it looks great as well. My local buddies beg me not to, but like you said its MY car, lol.
