Ok, so the strut bar is a neuspeed so im told and i got it yesterday for 40 bucks! i had to drive all the way to long beach...but it was a nice day anways. and it has little bent tabs and slotted holes to "adjust" the length you could say..

as far as the spark cover. heres what im gonna do...i have gotten about 4 messages now and in all fairness the first one that sent me a message should get it. but hes not in San Diego. Silentdancer is local and thats just easier for me...if that doesnt go through the first person that sent me the PM will get it..i just didnt want to have to mess with shipping and all that...ill respond to all PM's

thanks guys

Well, one reason you might have had trouble finding GPW/Red in 04+ is that it wasn't really available. MY07 has Black and Red, but red has not been available in stock GPW S2000s since 2002 in the US. You could always do your own swap though- I have an 06 GPW (which came with all black interior in the US) and I found the all black to be too subdued, especially after my all red interior in my MY02. So I made my own interior scheme up with tan and black. It is similar to the MY04 and MY05 GPWs, but unique still. Here is a shot of it.

thats awesome..it matches your color scheme on the outside of the car....love you wheels too.

i did a ton of research before i bought my car and foudn the 05 to be nice but i found some info saying they revised something in the vavle train and its down like 2hp? not a huge deal but...and then the 06 and up had TC or VSC i think they call it...i deff dont need that...and then i also found that i fell in love with 04+ body style..so i basically had to choose a diff color. i couldnt be happier with my interior though...maybe black carpet the red gets dirty pretty fast. but thats more insentive

and yeah i sat in a all black s2k and was like....wth this is boring. and then i found a all red one...looks kinda girly in my opinion...black and red are a nice mix...

maybe one day i'll sell over "Silverstein" and get a white one...but not anytime soon..i got WAY too good of a deal.
