And it's not the lamp post thing ;)

I've started modding the s2k :lol:

Got myself a carbon bonnet on egay for the princely sum of £85 including the £45 aero catches :D

Only problem being it was painted in the wrong colour :cry:

Image

So with A LOT of sanding (20 hours plus by hand) it went through this

Image

and this

Image

to this

Image

Image

No flutter with the aero catches installed either

I've put the Advan RC's which were on the ATR onto the s2k too but am looking to swap them for some wider wheels :cough: ;) as can only get 215's on them and stock rears are 225's for the ap1. So it's very much a case of wiggle, wiggle, wiggle yeah! :lol: On the flip side, it's a little less twitchy as the back always goes before the front.

Can you do such things? I would be very interested if you could get a mugen style CF hard top without the bank account rape some are asking ;)

As for the lip I will have to look what lips are available, a lot of stuff is available FRP as well as carbon fibre.
