Default What mods you regret on your S2000?

Some modifications we do on our S2000's may not end like we were expecting. What mods do you regret?

I paid $90 for an after market bumper that cracked in two days. Then I threw it away .

Meh - just about everything I've done I'm happy with or OK with. The OK with I'd say is the K&N intake. Not impressed with fit and finish as it seems cheap quality, plus there's a huge gap between the filter and the heat shield. I like the sound but I'm thinking the OEM box is best with a better filter and baffle cut out of it. If I don't go FI in the spring I'll probably go back to modded OEM box.

Well, I'm hoping that Modifry glove box organizer doesn't come back to haunt me in the end. But hey, no risk no reward as they say.

Okay, so I'm a boring "keeping it stock" guy. The closest thing I've done to "modding" my S2K was to preemptively install a Billman TCT.

None. Super happy with every mod part I've added. Not quite as happy with the alignment situation, but it's less of a not liking the specs issue and more frustration that shops can't seem to set it at the specs I've requested.

If there is something I have learned in my 15 years of being able to drive is to research, research, and the research again before I pull the trigger on parts or modifications. I’ve cerainly learned the hard way.

Car came with eBay hood struts, do not do this please because your paint will not like it and not my choice. I now have SOS hood struts, car is happy and so am I.
