Here is what we think Honda should be offering BUT since they don't we make it happen Special thanks to ScottEvil for allowing us to swap his interior. I think both cars benefitted from this.

Agreed, very nice color combos, much better than factory.

I know the NFR is happier now and the owner is too!!!!! The white car's new owner should be very pleased too. I like driving something that is pretty rare and this gets close. I don't know how many NFRs have had a swap to tan, but this looks awesome. The German and Italian automakers do this combination all the time and it works in an NSX, maybe Honda will take the hint.

Jeff and Joe are total professionals. This swap required some considerable time and effort on their part (I wonder if anyone's car at a certain North Coast Honda dealership got worked on today ). Thank's a ton guys!!!

Here are a few more pics...

to be honest, not in a million years did i think the tan interior would look good with a red s2k... but after seeing it, i stand corrected... it looks sorta like a ferrari interior...

glad to see a great conversion and great pictures!!!!!

That is PRIMO bitchin, Scott!

Awesome look for the NFR. This mod really surprised me.

Now that I have seen it, I would not be surprised to have that combination offerred on a future S2000 model.

Great job Jeff and Joe!

One thing that struck me...

The white/tan looks very classy. The white/black looks more sporty.

The red/black looks bold, while the red/tan adds an exotic element (probably the Ferrari images that come to mind) to an already sporty car.
