And as far as seat covers, lemme look that up for you.

I have them leftover from my tiburon actually lol and I inherited that. I don't honestly know how much and whether they're worth it, but I'd sure as hell do my research to find something very budget friendly. Thanks for the advice though!

The search button doesn't give me much as far as seat covers go yet, but I'd like to know whether they're worth a shot or no.

Oh and yea.. that hood scoop's on my list. It won't be easy to mess with without paint, so it's on the backburner for now.

baktasht · 02-20-2009, 03:15 AM

I like it the way it is.

randomxzero · 02-20-2009, 04:05 AM

back to stock im sure you can sell that front clip to an s2k owner!.. but ya man other than that it looks decent from the body..

ProjekIssei · 02-22-2009, 06:09 AM

Nah, I say go for what you like and keep the S2000 front end. I think you can pull it off. Definitely get rid of the hood scoop, slap some +94 JDM rear tail lights, and lower it with better rims!

The S2000 projectors kick ass. Awesome cutoff on them. I would love to have that kind of lighting at night.

MR2SW22 · 02-24-2009, 02:19 PM

i hope you save that poor poor deuce...

Ghost · 02-25-2009, 12:00 AM

Get rid of that wannabe legacy scoop. But, keep us updated. Keep up the good work mang.... Still kind of looks weird with that front end though.

Zurik · 02-26-2009, 02:28 AM

What do you guys think of buying some black grilles like this:

eBay Motors: 00 01 02 03 Honda S2000 Grille 3 Pc Grill Insert Set (item 350170414627 end time Mar-25-09 19:01:30 PDT)

to cover up those annoying holes in my front bumper. I'm skeptical, but they look like they're of decent quality.

wagonis · 02-26-2009, 09:04 AM

Guess if you're keeping the S2000 front on then you might as well fill up those holes. I say get them.

MR2 Drifter · 02-26-2009, 10:45 AM

I would change the tail lights right away, $40 for the stock 91-93 lights or like $300 for 94+ tails (depends on your money issues)

and what happened to the paint? looks like all the yellow in the front started coming off?

Zurik · 02-26-2009, 12:47 PM

Tail lights are definitely near my top, along with a drop. Paint is iffy overall, but it'll do for another 6 months or maybe more. I want to get the rest of the exterior together before I paint it.

Ghost · 02-26-2009, 11:24 PM

I say, leave the front bumper stock. Not a big fan of those grills but if its your cup of tea. Go for it.

It's not to make it look better, its to get rid of those giant holes i have in the fog lighty area of the bumper.

IMO those kind of grills cheapen the look of any car there put on.
So you dont have the fog lights anymore?

Zurik · 02-27-2009, 03:44 PM

stock, those things are just body color.. the way i got them was with some kinda turn signals in em or something..

mr.ac · 02-28-2009, 05:32 AM

holy sh*t you bought it. Nice. I always tought the car looked good, expect the hood scoop. That justs kills the whole car.

brokendan · 07-26-2009, 06:04 PM

ok so i realize this is kinda old but, is tht basically a whole front clip on there? like fenders, hood, bumper and lights? as has been said, really the only thing that kills this for me is the scoop. looks interesting from the side. and are there any updates on how this car is doing now

canadam · 07-29-2009, 09:18 PM

I think the lights flow pretty nicely on the car. Not big on how the bumper turns out from the wheels at the wells on the front on view, or the hood scoop, but to me the headlights look great

Kw8z3boi · 07-31-2009, 06:10 PM

Sorry, not feeling the car at all

you drive a honda....So SHHHHHH!!!!

As for the look....the hood scoop, the ebay side mirrors and tails must go.
the front fenders need to be reworked and rounded in the front,the rear fender wells look as if they rolled them an made the opening bigger.

lower it and keep the rest
