SUV backup into my "S"
So it was a nice Friday afternoon, had the top down and on my way to have lunch with a friend. I was in the parking lot looking for a parking spot when two cars ahead of me stop. I sat there for about a minute waiting for these two cars to go. In my rearview mirror, I see a Chevy Trailblazer backing out of the parking spot to my left. It gets closer and closer to my car, before I got a chance to hit my horn, it hits me. Crap, woman driver, how can she not see a bright yellow car. Anyways, I got her insurance info and I'm on my way. Her insurance is already taking car of everything. I guess I will need a new rear bumper and fresh paint, the damage was not that bad. Should I go with ap2 rear bumper on ap1? This was right after I saw Marco and Mike on 41. Here are some pictures.

damn, that was just right after you saw us on the freeway. I say you should do full ap2 conversion, otherwise just stick with an ap1 rear, IMO. good luck with whatever you decide.

Damn Yang.. that's messed up.... just get a fat kit man... j/k.. but for real though... just stick to the AP1 rear bumper... unless you wanna do front and rear.. you know.. the front bumper isn't all that expensive...

you know what, I think theres a curse with the s2ks...when I first bought my 02 yellow sk2, the very next day, a lady in a gmc yukon rear ended my car at a red light, saying she didnt see me, i was like "WTF" its yellow and your still blind. Then when my car was ready to be picked up at the collision shop, I saw another white s2k and the guy told me his car got rear ended as well.

Thank heavens you are ok and the car is not totalled.....I am so sorry to hear that.
This is another reason I don't drive the car much and if I must park I will go out of my way to do it far far away from everyone.
I say stick with the AP1 or you can go with a cool azz kit for now.

I am sure is because you guy's car is too small. I have that problem when in the miata.
Just get a loud exhaust and rev when they are near you.

Dang, that sucks Yang.
I remember talking to my boss a long time ago (he drives a SUV), and he was telling me how hard it is to see our S2000's in his SUV (because it was low and small).
