My most recent mod was the Modifry cupholder bracket and cupholder. Anyone who has been in an S2k with a drink in the cup holder knows it is right where your arm wants to be while shifting, this bracket mounts to the side of the trans tunnel out of the way and the cupholder removes in seconds.

Steve leung of sleungphotography.com wanted to take some pics of my car (If anyone around stoon/regina wants pics taken he likes taking pics of cars on the side, He's a super nice guy and takes great pics) so heres a few from this weekend.

I also went down to regina for dodologics fallout. Heres a pic courtesy of prettybirdphotography from the cruise down.

And heres a pic to better show the actual wheel colour

Oh nice! Now get AP2 center console and you'll have triple the amount over stock

Got my wheels painted, added some spacers, Rolled my fenders (front were already cracked and wavy so they don't look that great) rears came out good though. Blue Tinted convex mirrors, oem rep front lip and still waiting on a few things, but ready for the snow to melt and bring her back out!

Looking good buddy! Those wheels turned out really well, I love the color.

cmyles your STi is looking damn fine too. I bet you're feeling quite content with your choice!

I love the s2000, it's the second choice to my fav car the NSX.

Slotato · « **Reply #35 on:** March 19, 2014, 12:39:46 pm »

Everyone should drive an s2k at some Point (if they fit, haha) they are such fun cars.

Forgot to add this pic with some light shining on the wheel showing the colour in different light.

Slotato · « **Reply #36 on:** April 05, 2014, 10:20:37 pm »

Well, I got the car out Friday after work. Went for a top down drive immediately!

I'm quite happy with where the spacers ended up placing the wheels.

I also bought My Dads HKS Hi-Power dual exhaust and I put that on today, all I can say is WOW. It sounds awesome, not too loud but a nice deep tone. Don't have any good pictures of it installed, just this one.

My Dad · « **Reply #37 on:** April 07, 2014, 05:59:54 pm »

Awesome! Glad you like it, looks dope

Picked up a Michelin low profile jack since they're on sale at can tire.

And it snowed... Again

Slotato · « **Reply #39 on:** July 20, 2014, 12:40:13 am »

Time for an upgrade...

Also have a few parts ordered. The cars going to look quite different next year

snakeman · « **Reply #40 on:** July 20, 2014, 07:18:51 am »

I'm gonna take a wild guess and say someone with a trailer hitch backed into you and made that sweet square speed hole in your bumper?

Slotato · « **Reply #41 on:** July 20, 2014, 11:39:52 am »

Yup, saw my car jerk backwards suddenly. Ran outside but thankfully the guy didn't try to take off. Ive been wanting a different bumper anyway so I'm not too upset, except that I have to drive it like this for a while now. Soonest time insurance can even look at it is on the 31st.

GrantC · « **Reply #42 on:** July 20, 2014, 01:27:47 pm »

Frig, I hate that... I got backed into in my WRX exactly like & it punched a square hole in the black part.

Slotato · « **Reply #43 on:** July 28, 2014, 10:17:37 pm »

Just figured I'd continue the trend, another truck backed into me in front of my house. This one was a little worse

Not sure if I want an aftermarket hood though. They are all heavier than stock (not much) unless you go with dry carbon and they are really expensive, plus there's always a chance of the hood failing at the latch since it's not as strong as the stock metal hood, and I don't want to run hood pins. I do like the look of the DIY hood vents though.

It also broke the rad (still sealed) and scuffed the rad support.

jellynuts · « **Reply #44 on:** July 29, 2014, 08:10:58 am »

It doesn't help that the S2000 is so low. On the other, people are idiots. In my case, I'm both as I almost backed into Heru's BRZ last week.

I'm not a huge fan of the CF on anything but black, but regardless, I hope you get this fixed up to your liking and the drivers own up to their damage.

Claw · « **Reply #45 on:** July 29, 2014, 08:15:30 am »

Geez.. looks like you have enough space up your front lawn to create your own driveway though.. that would hurt.

I would hate to see my all-original body panel GPW get munged by other people's carelessness.

YvanF · « **Reply #46 on:** July 29, 2014, 08:22:32 am »

itshay news. Hope it all gets fixed up and looking like new.

GrantC · « **Reply #47 on:** July 29, 2014, 02:40:14 pm »

That's crappy...

Was it a hit & run, or did they knock on your door to break the news?

10secdream · « **Reply #48 on:** July 29, 2014, 03:55:29 pm »

I can't imagine getting hit twice in a matter of a week

Slotato · « **Reply #49 on:** July 29, 2014, 05:54:15 pm »

Crappy way to meet your neighbour, lol. He came to my door to tell me about it.
I've got a garage pad poured in the back but the alley isn't finished (new neighbourhood) and it's got huge ruts so I can't get back there right now.

If I went with a carbon hood it would be the siebon mugen style and only the vents would be left carbon, the rest would be painted

The worst part for me is that I've got to drive it like this now till it gets fixed. Not to upset about it not being original anymore as the front bumper isn't original and it's had damage on the quarter panel already.
If it was original and I wanted to keep it that way then I'd be pissed.
