Anyway, here's a close up, so is this Mugen or Seibon?
Nah! that is how the genuine Mugen wings are painted. They come gel coated and only the end plates have a CF weave.

In this case I am almost certain that the one you have is a Seibon. They are almost identical to the Mugen wing but have a very nice CF weave all over so they don't need to be painted if you don't mind the CF look.

Momo Millenium I think.
It's a Momo Race steering wheel - I bought an identical wheel for one of my old CRXs a few years back - I still have the wheel and boss come to think of it but it's just sat around doing nothing, since I've had cars with airbags!

I think you meant the previous owner lives 2 mins from you, and you don't see the car anymore because it's with me now.

Did you recognize the car or did you recognize the houses?

No idea. Just some brandless semi-bucket seats.

It used to have blue seats when i viewed them, but i didn't like the colour combination with the car, so the deal with the seller was to change them to black seats.

ahh ok - both to be honest! it was the Prowler that gave it away! He normally has a Corvette there too

I never actually got to meet the guy but the car was always nice and tidy - fingers crossed you got a nice example - it certainly looks it and I love the S in yellow

Which Corvette did you usually see? when i went to view the s2k, he showed me one of his yellow corvette. I am guessing he likes yellow as much as i do, because he also told me he used to have a yellow evo 8.

Some advice needed. Currently, the car's mileage is at about 33500miles, and the age of the car is about 9 years old. Is it really necessary to do all the items as per the service schedule?
