Greetings. I finally got my s2K. I'm from the New Orleans area and I basically had to drive to texas to pick this one up, but it was more than worth the ride. Other than the tires and the iPod adapter I installed its all stock. Can't wait to get some parts on it. Already have the OEM spoiler for it unpainted sitting in the garage, still not sure if I like it better on or off. I def want to get the OEM lip tho. And i'm saving up for the Invidia Q300 Duel exhaust system (I really like the way that one sounds). It needs a paint touch up on a handful of places. Anybody know an estimate on how much it might cost to get a full paint job from a Honda body shop? I would paint it Laguna Blue Pearl if so. I'd be set after getting all that. (and maybe some Volk te37's).

welcome to s2ki! definitely get a front lip changes the whole appearance of the car

 

Welcome! I agree on the front lip! I have it on my S!

Just a question though, why repaint it LBP? Why didn't you just buy one in the first place?

Most scratches can probably be sanded and buffed out..

A really good paint job can run you more than 2k.

If you're set on a different colour.. would make more sense to swap your car with another of your colour choice

 

The laguna blue was my top choice but there were none available in my price range. It's not a big deal, but if I were gonna go through with a full re-paint anyway I might as well get something I like that isn't so hard to touch up with paint when it does get some marks on it. I like the silverstone but I hear its difficult to match the paint. (didn't find that out till after buying mine)
