Because the demand for the leather console cover, shift boot, know sock, and now, the new windscreen, has been so solid and steady, the only way I can continue to manage it efficiently is to offer it all on my own web site.

We're working on the site now and should have it up in two to three weeks. We'll still offer the same value and will always have initial group buys on S2000Online for new accessory launches (the next of which will be the leather headrests), so that the true devotees of the car can always get first crack at bargain prices.

Hopefully, having my own Rick's S2000 Signature Accessories site will make it easier for my fellow S2000 owners find and order the accessories, especially after the group buys here have ended.

I will also become a sponsor of this site, provided Cthree can accommodate another sponsor.

What a great move! It is hard to keep such an impressive effort, with great products that provide such a value to the customer, from turning into an institution. Congratulations on an accomplishment that benefits us all.

I look forward to more improvements to my car. Cheers!

Sounds great Rick! The offer still stands if you need a host cheap

I and the rest of the S2KO team will be unveiling the new and improved S2KO site in about 4 weeks time (around xmas) and included in that package will be more sponsorship opportunities. The primary sponsors will remain but there has been such a huge demand from smaller "boutiques" the don't have the budget for a big ad but still want to be able to promote their products. The new sponsorship space will include a number of smaller ad spaces, rotating ads (to accomodate the demand) and a price starting at $20/month for a single small ad.

I don't mean to hijack your post Rick, but I had no idea how key this site would become to the community as a whole when I started it. I don't need the money but the strict limit on the number of sponsors is really restricting others from taking part. The extra funds will go to growth management and if there is anything left over, ie. profits, I will donate them to charity at the end of the year.

Thanks again Rick, you are a star. I can't wait to get my console cover on as soon as my seat belt recall is done

Oh did I mention the new layout will feature self-serve moderation. Just insert your wee wee in the hole and the machine will slap it for you.
