Hey Tyler, just checking in. Looks like you're having a good time with the S2K! It looks amazing!

Sucks with your arm though...hope you get to drive the thing again soon. Hope all is well.

Two years ago today I purchased the S2000 It's been a fun 23k miles and I look forward to many more! The car hasn't changed too much, but while I like and appreciate the crazy builds, I enjoy the simple OEM+ look.

Evan (The_GPW_AP2) assisted in relocating the rear fender tab and trimming the front fender liners a few weeks ago to prepare for having the fenders rolled. After a few hectic weeks at work, I finally had the fenders rolled last night and installed spacers, 15mm front and 17mm rear. Other than the spacers, I removed the Greddy SE catback and returned to the stock setup. I liked the Greddy, but never LOVED it. I grew tired of it during my long commutes.







I attended a local S2000 meet today too





































And the rebels

I love the simple OEM look of your S2k! One of the few cars where the OEM wheels are actually perfect.

The comparison of your car and that AP1 is crazy .. looks completely different.

I love the OEM+ look as well.

Thank you sir

I love these wheels as well. Eventually I'll be a baller and get some Advans or something, but I have no complaints with my current setup

I appreciate that AP1 because it's basically all original, but I certainly prefer the looks of mine

100% agree on the OEM look. Out of all the other S2Ks at that meet, your's IMO looked the best.

And congrats on 2 years!

A few of those cars have way too much going on and look like shit! Yours looks nice and clean as is. I'm a firm Belieber that less is more.

Thanks Jason. The stock exhaust is here to stay for a while. There are others that I like, but once again, don't absolutely love. We'll see what happens in the future.

Nope. I thought about it but never pulled the trigger before reinstalling the stock stuff. Plus I haven't heard it in person yet

Did you sell the damn exhaust yet?
I swear, I'm tempted...but only because I always wanted the Greddy SE and you're selling it for a great price.
But then I'm like, uh...I literally just pulled my exhaust and sold it and am happy with the UK modded one.

Bah...we're never happy.

I would recommend doing it though, brother.

The exhaust is still available

I'm certainly not opposed to the UK Mod, but I'm in no hurry. I'll do it when I can't stand the quiet anymore

I'm curbing my spending currently, or I'd be very tempted to buy that exhaust before he realized he regretted selling it.

Please buy it. I'm sick of looking at it in the garage

Thank you sir! I liked the TL, but never LOVED it. With buying a house right before buying the S2000, I soon realized I needed a truck for house projects, so the TL had to go. I had a great run with it though
