oh and I forgot to add, the kit from IIGQ4U doesnt require new side brushes. It also permanently bolts the hardtop to the car instead of having a latch. I feel better about this bc it makes the top more difficult to remove. I dont really see myself taking it off too much in the summer so the fact of it being harder to remove doesnt bother me.

The hardtop is still removable but you just have to pop the trim panel off the hardtop or the panel with the brushes to remove the top.

Pics will be up soon, had a hectic day at school so I was not able to take any pictures.

horrible pic, but the hardtop doesnt even match yet. Dropping it off sometime before thanksgiving for paint. It made a LOT of noise so I had to take it off and lube up the seals, and it worked. All the noise has disappeared, except for some minor wind coming from around the side windows.

Expect a LOT of pics once it is done, as I already have a photoshoot with another s2000 planned. After I pay off the loan for the HT, I will be going with an intake/header/exhaust/vafc and tune/tien springs. I am still debating the test pipe and if I want to paint my wheels black with a red lip.
