Default OFFICIAL: s2000 Parts in your Home Thread

I've seen many funny pictures on various FS threads of s2000 parts littering our personal space (living room, bathroom, bedroom, and kitchens alike). I searched around and didn't see any official thread for this sort of situation. I know I've been to a few s2ki members' houses and seen similar decorations adorning walls, floors, dining room tables, and the like. Please post up a shot of something other than your garage absorbed in car parts!

Try to capture the ambiance of your room, as well as the car part. Think...Where's Waldo? A quirky or silly comment to go along with your pic helps too!



I'll get the ball rolling with a current shot of my living room to give ya'll an idea for my thoughts about this thread. My apartment decoration is still a work in progress. You can see in the background one of the framed photos from an Alexey Orlov photo shoot with Mac's, Raymond's, and my car. Also you can see my little Ikea mantle covered in s2000 models.

Can you guess which piece of furniture in my living room came from an s2000, and not from Ikea?

These pics are borrowed from Eddie's (red@9k) FS thread, one of the recent inspirations for this thread. Check out his 'Mugen Roll Bar dinner' on his dining room table!

Looking in the archives, I found a few more I shots I've taken over the months of s2000 ownership. Not all are in the true spirit of this thread, but it's good to help get a little momentum going.

1. Need to stiffen up an old red leather couch? What better way than an s2000 STB:


2. Here's a shot of a little candle/lamp ensemble that adorned my office for a short while:


3. Nothing like stubbing your toe on a Comptech Exhaust after waking up from a snooze. Yes, I stockpile paper towels under my bed...


4. Nothing like sacrificing 90% of the work space in your office to display shiny exhaust parts. I think the scent of ammonia from the metal polish is still soaked into that room at my old place.

How about non-s2000 parts!? I have a whole shop of Lotus crap in my place ie:




Hmm, maybe a few S2K parts actually...here's some old ones haha





Here was my apartment at one point when I was building a JDM ITR DB8, I had every single complete interior piece in that clutter + suspension & what not
