When I purchased my Spa Yellow S2K I was forced to purchase the rear wing even though I did not want it!!! The Honda dealer told me that parts would not take it back because the color was molded into the wing. Anyway I have a new rear wing in a box that has never been opened and I don't plan on installing it! I personally like the S2K without the rear wing or any body accessories attached. Anybody want it for fair market value???

When I ordered my car 6-5-00 and JUST got it 3-15-01 I ordered the rear spoiler sight unseen...
Paid Full List and "picked up all parts... no one installed anything...
Now I am "on the fence" on if I like it!
I have not seen but one Black with it this past weekend at our Atlanta meet and I still have mine in the box... Can't take it back and don't know if I will ever install it!

I have it, came with the car, unopened in the box in my closet. Its silver and may sell it but have not decided yet. Anyone interested?

I prefer the look without the spoiler, looks smoother to me.

Got the side strakes and wish I hadn't, they don't appear to be attached too well and easily get damaged. Glad to hear there is an aerodynamic advantage.

The front spoiler would take much more abuse than my current stook nose, as the yazoo clay in Mississippi means lots of steep driveways and sometimes bad road surfaces, I've stopped gasping and shrieking in horror when I bottom the nose occasionally at low speeds; it only results in minor scratches on the bottom and flexes well with no apparent damage.

What a Honda! Just can't wait to get her back when the 1-2 grind fix & new clutch is done!

Of all the rear spoilers, the OEM version IMO looks the best and it's less than $400 bucks. I was shopping around for a chin spoiler until i saw these 7 nose jobs at MG racing. http://www.s2000-honda.com/main.htm It struck me that the best one came for free.

I don't care much for the add-ons. I've left mine the way God and Honda intended. Different strokes and all that, but I think the main function of these devices is to separate you from your money.
