no offense everyone but you guys are all looking at this part in the wrong way, I don't have to say IMO, I am saying this this is obviously my opinion...
when I first saw that Spoon was releasing this top the last thing in my mind was how it would look with a fake painted side window, It looked fantastic without it too.
I don't think this top was ever about looks, why are you guys considering buying it if you are questioning if you like it or not? that just confuses me, the reasoning that it is a attempt to be different is laughable. different how? different in that you put a hardtop on your car that some guys in Japan spent freaking years to develop for their endurance car. a dream since a guy started an interest in cars.
if you guys are worried about matching it up to window tint, blindspots, fake window paint, just . . . . . . . no.
just buy me parts for my car instead
I need a B18C for Mr. EG6
haha see how I turned that around . . .
but in all seriousness ^^^^^^^^^^^

Personally I think this ""LunarCraft"" HT will only look right with s2k's pushing widebodys or some other crazy body mod.I mean cmon look at it on a stock s2k for a minute.It looks retarded.It wouldnt be so bad if it didnt have the 2nd piece that goes over the trunk.

not having a painted window hardly makes it look like "ass"
I have seen it with and without, looks the same either way, the side window is not what makes the top look good or bad.
i know it is your car
I am just bummed that the "car/driving enthusiast" of the US are thinkng more in this way.so much more worried about how it will look.
this is not going to be convenient to have this top, it wasn't meant for that, either was the car.
I know you know if you like it or not already, and like you said it was your car, and you made a post and asked for pictures, cool, but I just have really specific ideas on whole car enthusiast situation, and I will say what I think if I am called upon.
hope you figure out what you want to do, goodluck
Hopefully someday RIJO can gain just as much respect as Tuners like Spoon . . . ..

I totally agree with you except for the fact that most of the customers who purchase the top will be driving it on the street with the countless morons who don't know how to drive, not on a race track where you don't have to switch lanes or worry about the 90-year-old coming into your lane. And I think looks amazing which is the reason I'd buy it. Just the fact that all the R&D has been included is icing on the cake. To each his own I guess. Either way,
but it is only a matter of time before the demo/show cars start to get a hold of them i suppose, whatever i guess, i only need to be in the US for a few more years now

They took the beautiful lines of the S2000 and destroyed it, maybe made the car more aerodynamic in the process, but that shit is butt ugly.
What the hell is that back bumper? "Let's put a square bumper on a round car! That will look good!"
And that hardtop...man what is that thing? You thought your trunk was useless before? Think again! If you are buying anything off of that car besides the front bumper and hood for looks, you are not on the right track.
Terrible... You want to see a sick S2000?
AMUSE FTMFW!
This car is absoloutly stunning, nothing wrong with it, widebody looks excellent. Doesn't look like a piece of fibreglass bolted onto the wheel wells.
