Devious,

Nicely done. One interesting thing I saw (that I hadn't seen before), was the stubby antenna. Where'd you find that one? I like the look.
Stubby antenna looks the same to me........

How much did you pay for the color change? Looks like they did a nice job. I'm considering doing one at some point.

Looks to be about 1/2 - 2/3 the height of a stock one to me.


I still can't believe you actually had a portion of your windshield blocked at the top! You must've put your face on the dash to see traffic lights

Thanks for all the comments!

The stubby antenna is much smaller and is metal rather than rubber. The reception isn't as good, but I rarely listen to FM. Purely aesthetics for me.

The paint job didn't cost me anything so I can't advise there. I bartered with a local collision shop.

the megan header is nice functionally, but nothing special aesthetically. I get many compliments from s2000 drivers saying it's the best sounding s2000 they've ever heard. It is very loud with the full exhaust and forced induction, but I enjoy it.

I let a friend drive it a couple nights ago so I could hear it from outside and I must admit it sounded like a race car when he did a fly by.


Coming up :

ACT clutch kit
A-Pillar with new gauges



Mods I'm considering :

cusco cage
bride seats
brake upgrade
J's body kit


We'll see...

Awesome car. Is the Vortech SC better than the Comtech SC? Did you install it yourself? Thanks.

Devious,

Where did you pick up the antenna?

Thanks!
