Yeah, OEM lip, small drop, OEM hardtop, Test pipe on OEM exhaust, Gutted/insulated OEM airbox with K&N Filter, and a countersunk shift knob. Thats what im going for. Im just saving for the hardtop now. I also got the Clazzio seat covers, very nice addition, OEM looking! Maybe later on down the road do a S/C.

Got everything but the s/c. . I love sleepers.
OEM is by far the best but the S as a sleeper? Never happen. May never be fast but it will always turn heads, stock or modified.

i love anything that's an oem option. such as lip kit, spoilers, w/e. my old car had simple stuff like coils, wheels, exhaust, but honestly i wouldn't even go that far on a S.

things like tint are a must for me though, and i'll prob get an aftermarket stereo and shift knob. the most i'd do is probably lowering springs, k&n intake, and oem lip kit. i just love stock cars that are extremely clean with tints and a small drop look wise.

I meant by not having so much excessive things as wings, body kits, crazy front bumpers, among other things.

And also i guess it's determinant by where you live because S2000s don't turn many heads down here in South FL unless they are heavily modified. When I lived in NY I didn't see many S2000s on the road at all. Down here it's daily sightings..

I just really care about looks on this car. Not gonna be crazy fast unless you throw alot of money at it, which I don't wanna do; its quick enough. I just slammed mine (they sit wayyyy too high stock), and I'll probably get a front lip and eventually, different wheels. Thats enough for me.

Stock or modified both are good!

I was going to keep my stock but then one thing lead to another and now have many mods and a sc about to go in.

Full sound system was one of the best mods I have made!
I like all of the mods I have done however and would not want to go back to stock at all!
