HMS makes a top inner cover for the '00 - '01 only, but I have never seen one in person.

adelaide, I disagree, I think the black a-pillars look much better because when the tape is removed the body color is just a thin area and the windshield looks less dramatic and sturdy. IMHO.

TKG 26, I like the 16" wheels. I tricked out my CRX-Si to a point where it was no longer comfortable to drive on the street, I will not do that to the S2000.

Thanks you2 for all your constructive critisism...

I guess I can see your point, although I don't know if I agree. I will note however, that I have a black car and thankfully don't have this controversial decision to deal with. I just freakin wish I had a hardtop....

There is a thread selling hardtops delivered for $2300 out of the US. It's a good deal I think.

Yes that is the RM Racing Chin Spoiler!
For the cost of the item I think it is great. There are lots of people on this forum who stick their noses up at it because they claim it is poorly made and is a piece of crap. As you can see their opinion deterred me from buying it!

This item dramatically lowers the front of the car, let there be no question about it, 1.5" is about the dimension. I would NOT put this on a car that was lowered. Mind you I have driven a slammed CRX-Si for over 10 years and I know how to be careful, I know how not to pull up to far in a parking spot, I know what driveways are too steep to pull into, I know... I have gotten more compliments on this addition than I ever thought would happen.
The one thing I don't like about it is the box it was shipped to me in. The box was WAY bigger than it needed to be and UPS charged an oversize premium. If you order I would insist RM Racing come up with a better solution. Seriously, the box mine came in was WAY bigger than the product itself!

My car is in Vermont getting the Triple-H Rollbar created for it, so this is all I can do for pics right now, sorry.

Nope, I honestly think the car looks better with the black a-pillars.
I guess part of my bias is because I always loved the 1st couple of years of the NSX when the entire canopy was black. When they started painting the roof and pillars body colors it was a very sad day for me!
