s2000 emblem on driver's side definitely got the hack job
Yep.

The passenger fender isn't aligned by the headlight, and is a different color than the pass. door.

The drivers side fender is darker than the bumper, and the s2000 emblem is crooked.

The bumper and hood match fairly well, but if the two fenders were painted/replace/reworked, most likely the hood and bumper was.

Only way to REALLY tell is with a paint depth gauge... if you're serious about buying, I have one

if your gonna buy an s, I would recommend buying from a member or a car thats known by the members. That is the closest your gonna be to knowing about the TRUE past of the car.

Well I got a similar mileage 04 in silverstone for 15.7 and I might say mine was in better condition.

clean title 04 silverstone 15.7 61k all dealer serviced with minor nick to front and rear bumper.

So in theory this yellow should be 10% less than mine was in 09.

I got my always garaged 04 SS late last summer for 16.8, clear title, no dings/dents, w/ flared front fenders, RPF1's, 255's all around, T1R coilovers, 48kmiles, transferable extended warranty 10yrs/105kmiles. And it's a maxrev.net car. I own a piece of history. I think I'm extremely lucky to own this car knowing it was also maintained by Joey(itS2Krazy) too. Damn I don't think it gets any better than this. Hehe =D It's still has the showcar shine since I polish/wax the car everyday.
Hope you find a clean AP1/AP2 for a great price. Good luck

You could of got this clean finely modified car for under 16 since I found it for my friend Omar. Just the parts itself are damn expensive. Pretty much done except missing the Comptech Supercharger. lol. https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.ph...ic=688815&st=0
