I'll see what I can do to get some cool shots of both!

Thanks Marco, I'm not sure, man...I guess I'll focus on riding my bike more.

Decided to throw the spoiler on the S2000. Even with the shade of yellow being slightly off, doesn't look bad from a distance and figured maybe it curing in the sun would help. Plus, I can get some on the car pictures to list it for sale if I do end up ditching it.

Really, this car is so close to perfection as is. Hard to imagine how many DIY mods could improve its appearance. With the TL it's a sedan we are making look like a sport sedan but the S2K has a much different (better) starting point.

Man...if only you had a buddy nearby, maybe one that was into cars?

Shoot me a text, I'd be happy to help.

I'm just really honored to have one of your 15 posts in 5 years
Thanks, man...most of the time when I shoot...it's me tossing the camera in the trunk. One day, we should set something up though.

Decided that since I already own it, and it's painted and decently close to the correct color, removable, and pictures would help sell it if I decided to remove it...

to install the spoiler. I actually do love how it looks...when staring directly at it, it's deceiving because from some angles and different lighting/shadows...it matches perfectly...and in others, because of how the light hits it, it looks off. Either way, If I don't stare at it and criticize it...looks great. Shoot, pictures capture it and it looks spot on!

I think it flows really well. Goes great with the rake of the car. Not too big, not too small. How is it removable? Whats the mounting like?

Looks great and flows well. It doesn't look like the color is off in the pics.

If it bothers you though have you looked into getting it repainted? I can't imagine it costing that much since it's not that big.

Actually, so far, it isn't bothering me at all.
Who gets me...
Plus, my local painter already refused to touch yellow...he says it'll be way too hard to match the color.
