1. NOS purging out of your hood
2. Underbody neon
3. LSX

I also have a Suzuka AP1 and unfortunately, the car isn’t going to draw too much attention without a decent amount of money spent on it. The car still turns heads when it’s clean and if people know what they’re looking at. RPF1’s obviously look good on it but those aren’t too flashy and don’t scream “look at me”. Since it’s already lowered, I’d look at getting some rims, maybe an OEM front or rear spoiler (if you don’t already have one), and learn to really drive the car. I imagine you’ll get more attention at a track than a car show. The S2000 has great styling from the factory; thousands of hours of engineering went into the design.

LOL^^

There are about a million answers to your question.
But even with that being said - there is no one single "mod" that is going to turn a car into a show stopper.
There are also lots of hideous things ppl do to these cars that may draw attention but in a bad way.
The best single thing you can do before a car show is have the car properly detailed - either by you or a professional. A super clean all original S2000 is a special thing in itself and those who know the car will appreciate that.

If I was walking and I saw a Suzuka S2000 with cracked seats and about a 7.5/10 official average rating on looks.....I would literally need a surgeon to re-attach my neck to my body from how fast I turned my head to look at said car.

I saw a picture of a front end with the oem lip and a diffuser under that and I would like to get a seocnd hood to the DIY vented hood on this site.. I really liked that. And then do a wing. But the vented hood with a oem lip and diffuser I think would grab some attention with the front end.

The replies to such an open ended and vague question and the potential quips are literally endless.

I'd say the bikini girls by your car suggestion is the most economical and head turning option suggested thus far considering car shows are mostly dudes. Or just have them sit in your car to cover up the cracked seats.

i do understand the value of keeping it stocking, which is why I would like to purchase a second hood that I can use, and would go with a oem lip with oem front bumper. only thing would be the diffuser at the bottom which I dont see screwing to much up at all. i am by no means looking for fast and furious look nor am i getting my inspiration from that lol. although tran did have a nice s2000 with a wing. just saying. I did do a fathers day car show with my dad and his car and my brothers frs. the s2000 did get lots of looks, it surprised me a lot to see so many people interested in a completely stock car. my brothers frs is procharged and all kinds of work done and my dad has built drag car. and the s2000 in between the two and it got lots of looks. but Id like it to stand out just a little bit. or grab some attention some how. and i dont really want bikini girls to win the show for me. id like my car to win it. but they would draw lots of attention.
