Default The small cap in the rear bumber...

Hi

To the two weeks of having S2000, the small stopper of the back bumper had disappeared.

I demand a couple of supplies to the official Honda Spain, but it had passed over a month and the pieces dont came.

Is this normal?
Is there another place to buy them?

Will I ever fix that ugly hole in my back bumper?

Tanks!

I know a few guys in the UK have lost theirs in the past and the dealer has been able to get a replacement very easily - perhaps 2 days wait. They are very cheap to buy (approx

Agree with above; it really shuldn't be too difficult to locate the cap, especially with all of
the internet auto accessory sites. Although I have to admit, it does give the back of the car
that James Bond look, like you've got some kinda jet propulsion thing going on...

Sometimes I wished I lived overseas; gotta love that Monte Carlo Blue!

Sorry about the missing cap!

Now, can we see the front so we can see the non-missing one?

This is just a clever way to see the Monte Carlo Blue .
And yes, we have no clue why American Honda Motors does not bring this color over. It is not like we have not asked!

It looks like the nozzle for the "Official James Bond oil-slick dispenser"

You guys are just obsessed with Monte Carlo Blue because you can't have it. Admit it, if Honda introduced that color in the US in 2003, many of you would instantly lose interest in it. I think it's a nice color, but not the best. (Better than yellow though... )

big buzzer on you, CBeyond. I just bought the Suzuka blue, and I still think the MC blue is fabulous.

What I really think is amusing is that Honda calls the colors by different race tracks in different countries. My Suzuka is, I believe, called Nurburgring in Japan!!! That, and of course they don't tell anyone about windshield tape. WTF???!

Anyway, the MC blue is awesome, and Honda should offer it here in USA.
