as i posted in another thread,
this is what the reply e- mail from car parts store in japan says-

Hello Seung,

We realized what part you are looking for.
The side skirt was made by "DOOV" 3 years before for an auto salon but they don't make any parts for S2000 for selling. So, we are sorry that we can't send it to you.

Best Regards,

the front is actually quite disapointing, thanks for posting the pic. The painted glove cover and seat inserts look quite apealing.

this kit seem to be very clean looks stock almost.

anymore pix of the interior?

If you actually read the R&T Article. It even states that the kit is not available for purchase anywhere.

The shape of the front half-bumper is good, but the top seam looks terrible. It needs to be moulded to the body or sold as a full bumper.

Too much flare at the bottom.... kinda looks like a bad civic kit(from the top pic). Just my opinion

I love the rear spolier, kinda like a less agressive and lower FEELS. There is no way I can purchase this? Sh!t!. Oh well, if anyone has new info, please let us know. -Anthony

Well that looks incredible. I was going to do an Amuse/ Feel's combo for the body, but my plans may have just changed. Plus if its from Honda it will come painted.

Read the article in R&T last night - they said it was available only in Japan (or would be shortly) and a conversion would cost roughly $5,500.

They also talked about an adjustable suspension or such (didn't really have much time as I was grocery shopping right then) that allowed for 5 different settings.

I believe according to the article the changes increased the "fun" factor of driving the car, but performance gains from the adjustable suspension was, in most cases, miniscule.

What suprised me about the kit was the tire sizes. Road and track talked about how tail-happy the car was, and I guess so. The swapped on 215 width 17" tires all the way around. I'm sure that extra grip in front and reduced grip out back will make an otherwise balanced car tail happy! I would be interested in the suspesion if honda sold it here, but I woudl probably stick to the stock wheels and tires.
