S2KI License Plate holder
Just wondering, I've spoken to various S2000 owners and some enthusiasts (driving other cars, but hoping for future purchase) these past two weeks, and NOT ONE had a clue to this site. I found it with an MSN search...but it was interesting to see that despite having mods and lovin' their cars, this source of valuable info had not been used. I really enjoy this site and its resources and know others would too.
What if we had (maybe) a license plate holder with the logo and it would be like free advertising, and assure the site would remain interactive with new mwmbers. Also, its visible, its not a sticker (don't like 'em), and could spread the word. Its just an idea while sitting here in an empty ER waiting for the night shift to get here... Erick |

Where do you get an S2ki frame?

The site owner, cthree, made a run of these some years ago and sold them via the marketplace. He also, for a short time, gave one away with each Gold Membership. When he ran out, he never did another run. I bought about 20 of them but they have all been distributed to local guys. You can always appeal to him to do another run. He had a reason for not doing the last time people asked. I just can't remember what that reason was.

XVIPER==MVP!!
Your are on top of everything...I mean EXACTLY like that. Looks clean, is functional, and gets the message out. I have to ask how you got it... :thumbup: edit: just read the above post... |

sorry for the bad pic;dark garage. |
I think there is a tremendous amount of interest in these and another run would sell. I remember now what the problem was. It had to do with the "S2000" logo. Honda objected to it being used in a commercial application (trademark infringement or something) and sent a warning letter to cthree to have all such references removed. This site used to be called "S2000 International". As you can see, it's now called "S2K International". Any new plate holders would have to have this instead.
I guess those few hundred of us around the world who have these, have fairly exclusive collector's items. :D I don't recall how many were actually "minted". |

I have personaly been trying to hunt one down myself for a while now but to no avail. I think it would be really slick if we could some how have custom plateholders made with the "www.s2ki.com" on the top and then our handel like "rizzo" on the bottom. Would be tricky to pull off mass production wise but everyone would probly want one. |
Damn, xviper beat me to it.

Good morning..I love days off. With all the different trades and occupations that reside on this forum, someone has to have a contact to fabricate these. I am sure cthree has other things to do, but I am going to PM him. Just as a courtesy since it is his site and logo. I personally want at least 10, to hand out to friends and have as collectors items (seeing they can become "collectors items") :eek1:
So far...it appears as if ALL the plateholders reside in Canada...Hhhmm, what a coincedence....................................... ... ;) Erick |
Just as Honda had an issue with someone using "S2000", I'm sure that only cthree can initiate something like this again or at least, sanction it, as "S2K International" is owned by him.

I'd buy a plate cover in a second if he started making them again!
|
I'd be a few for sure!
|
I'll buy one...last thing I wanna do is advertise for the shit dealer that sold me my car
|
Not sure if this is any help or not, but Team-Integra has had custom license plate covers for a long time now. I dont know if this is still an option, but they used to let you put custom text on the bottom part for a couple bucks more.
I ordered one for a friend with his site handle on it, and it turned out really nice. A link to the store is here: http://www.team-integra.net/misc/store/default.asp The site is run by a guy named Steve who goes by MorningZ on the site. Maybe he can get you some more information about where he is getting these made. If CThree is interested, of course ;) |
I think they should be free for Gold Members again :LOL:
|
This issue keeps coming up but will probably never happen. After the first run of plates, and then the fall out over copywrites on the "S2000" logo, I doubt there will be another plate like the ones you see above. If you want one, your best bet is to find someone who is trading in and get thiers.... thats how I got mine!
