thanks, I have checked that site, was hoping there were other sites.....those pics are rather dark and I cant really make out the back very well......I can only find those pics plus some pics from a show but the blue is so dark in the pics I can not make out the shape of it...

From what I am seeing I think I am diggin this kit also..

Goto the Evolution super meet pictures in the photo gallery. They have a picture of a silver one with the Marga Hills front. Very nice.

Marga Hills quality is amazing.Their kits are hand made in a shop about the size of a small house... This is the reason for the cost... Fittement is as near perfect as possible.. If I ever decide to turbo my car, this is the kit I would buy... that front bumper is crying for an intercooler.. I'd have to sell my kit though, and it hasn't even come in yet.. no use thinking that far ahead for me... bulletproof is the only online website that openly sells the kit that I've found, and they have the best pictures I've found at any sales site... Check out Marga hills website... If you want an alternate opinion, go to www.typeonemotorsports.com ... There isn't anything on the site, as it is under construction. Go to the contact page, and call the number listed... They import products directly from Japan on special order mostly... Tell him James referenced you. I know that there is not one s2k in the US that has this kit.. If you got it, you'd not only be the first, but the opportunity for sponsorship and magazine shots would be much greater... We can even help you out with that too...

There is actually one in the US... Here you go. Its in Virgina..I highly doubt you would get a sponsorship even if you did have the kit and no its not that expensive. The kit is not all that, infact its to much for some and not enough for others. No big deal. Its just another bodykit IMO. I could have bought that kit 3 times over already. Not trying to be a dick or anything just pointing out the truth..

Damn... Thanks JDM, I've never seen nor heard about this car before... Looks great! I too could have bought it several times over with the amount I've dumped... kinda makes you rethink your spending habits.. maybe not... I do agree that the kit alone will not get you a sponsorship, but people make them out to be so difficult to obtain... Looking at the car you posted a pic of, if submited, could obtain a minimum of 3 that I know of, with very few questions asked... I think the kit is gorgeous, and it's rarity in the states (or any Marga hills product ) increases the chances for publicity... You will need more than the kit no doubt, but it never hurts.. Like I said, if I didn't love the airwalker kit, and hadn't gotten such a great deal from the president, then I would buy this kit.. Oh, and I never made the assumption that you were a dick...

It is nice. Something different plus its turbo? Very nice. I would like to see the rest of this car.

I do know however the Marga Hills body kit for the NSX is big bucks.

Your right, some of us should re-think our spending habits.. Me especially...

how much does the kit cost? and about the turbo he has... can an s2000 have turbo (w/ a decent hp gain) and still be street legal?

super-S2, that's awesome! I need to talk to that guy so he can make me molds of my kit... I'll need a scaled down set of advan rgs and I'll be set...

h3y- the kit is on the higher end of most kits availible for the S2000... check out bpa's site for specifics.. the url is listed on the sponsors page... A turbo'ed s2k is most definately street legal... most get around 350-400 HP...

JDM, the Marga Hills NSX kit is sweet though...
