New Kit and New Shoes for my S2000 ...pix inside

Well, we finally got our kit painted, its a J's front bumper and Airwalker sideskirts we havent done a rear bumper yet (thinking of the 04 rear) and a friend is selling some Racing Hart CP-8's 18's for an unbeleivable price so we jumped on them. He only gave us one to try and it fits so we are buying them. Here are some pix, sorry about the quality of the rim pix its cloudy here in "sunny CA" Any comments... or...

Thanks man...its coming along pretty good now. Once we get the rims mounted, we'll probably need to lower it a bit maybe 1 inch or so, then the next question is boost or no boost

Go a full 2 inches, 1 inch won't be enough....just a heads up.

Yeah, we might go 1 in the front and 1.5 in the back. Dont want it too low, tired of cars that are too low to go anywhere We used to have to avoid going certain places because our car was too low, that sucked. The back is pretty high but the front wasnt bad, but thanks for the heads up

Hehe, I figured someone would say that. Yeah its kinda up in the air. We are kinda scared since we had a MR2 that gave us alot of problems, then again we were making 500+ rwhp If anything we'll supercharge it, but we definitely want reliability.

LOL, dont get your hopes up, its doesnt respond like the EVO to mods, but you probably already knew that. Its ok though, with a few bolt ons you can feel the difference. If you go the SC route, I know plenty of people making 270-290 rwhp at 6-7 psi.

Your the one with the teg for sale right? If you were closer I'd jump on that, I can use another auto-x car Good luck with your S2K im sure you'll enjoy it

Thanks...Yeah we like the yellow, we almost painted them red but decided to be a little different (most S owners go with red) I think once we get all the wheels, and get them on it will make the yellow stand out more.
