Thanks a lot for all the replies!
I kept searching for them online as S2000 foglights so they never popped up on any of my searches, thanks to jdm98specdc2 for pointing out that they are Civic EK lights! I actually did remove the plastic casing off and the light seems to be one sealed case..but either way they don't seem very expensive even if I need to replace the entire thing instead of just the bulb.
And chViETnk, thanks but I think I actually like the lights in black casing...I like the contrast it gives against the white and think it goes well with the black top, A pillar, etc.
FromaDB2toanAP1, the only "modifications" on the car are purely cosmetic for the most part...the AP2 wheels (yes, I've been putting off getting those center caps, need to do that!), fog lights, and front spoiler (not sure if that's an OEM part or not..I don't think it is?). It has a rear factory spoiler too..and everything else is stock as far as I can tell/see.
Looks like you guys are pretty active given how responsive you guys were. Will keep an eye out for your Friday meet ups and try to make it out sometime soon!
Thanks again for all the responses and will try to be active as I can on here.

Yeah, seriously! First time I test drove one (this car in fact, before I bought it) I didn't think too much of it...been driving my E30 on the twisties around here for ages, but damn this thing is so much twitchier and tail happy..thought I was going to lose it on the freeway on ramp!
Lot's of fun to be had..just need to be sane about it! Try to commute to work on the old car though, so this mostly comes out on the weekends..less opportunity to kill myself too that way!

Thanks, guys. And 00S2K01S4, don't think I've noticed this front lip spoiler too much but I definitely like it a lot too.
A bit tricky getting into parking lots though. Also ran over some damn plastic box in the middle of the freeway a few days ago (was wet and way too fast to try avoiding it) and got one side scuffed up...hoping it'll buff right out.
And damn, always been curious about what a supercharged S2K would be like! Ridiculous enough as is for me on the top end, but you probably get some nice grunt low down too with that?

yea seriously. be careful! it takes some time to learn how to drive this car to the fullest. once you learn it however, it is VERY rewarding. and PLEASE watch your tires. this car is dangerous when the tires are close to bald and it's wet out (actually even when it's dry out you still need to be careful).
mac and some of guys here are an exception
