I agree. it'll prolly be more like $1000 + install for the better kits. With that you could restyle your car real nice. Like Crank said you could get a lip or asm replica front, CF hood and maybe some small odds and ends. Itll be clean and look great. Plus dont forget the hassle of lifting the door every time u gotta get outta the car. My friend had them on his civic and hated it if he had to run out quick. Dont think we're hating on you just giving some friendly advice. The S2000 isnt your run of the mill honda. Its a classy sports car and should be modded tastefully. Its like Buying a porsche boxer. Your not putting lambo doors on that are you?

dam right man. Also if you are over weight good luck trying to squeeze in-out. save the $$$ for better tires, gas and a good meal. jimbrowski00 is right. As the s2000 is getting older and lost value, there are a whole new breed of owners out there will do crazy things to the s2000
