Sorry dono your name.
Just smooth I like a lot

thanks for appreciating the Fit guys

name's Kev btw. still reletively new to anything Sol related, please do excuse the noobish questions if one comes by.

regarding swaping seats in the Sol, have done a search on s2000 seat. all links i found seems to be too old on this topic, or links to pics are down. i know that they will fit with swaping in the seat pan & rails. but the question comes.. how hard is it to swap the seat pans?

btw.. all black interior looks great. mine's gray/black

yep. went through the crash scene and found part of the spoiler, and a couple chunks of CF but nothing useable....the cops were REALLY good @ cleaning things up and being quick to get things out of there


Jhon, that's the armrestpanel things on ebay that eliminate the appearance of the doorpanel wrinkles

take you about 4hrs if you're in no hurry. don't be scared of it, just dig in, you'll be removing hog rings for days and i would really suggest getting some new ones just so you don't have to worry about bending and unbending. if you get new ones you can just cut and then press the new ones on. but everything works out nicely and you'll feel so much better about bolting all 4 bolts back in and no wobble. just get everything tight when you're redoing hog rings and it's a done deal.

I know, right? It was 85 yesterday and this is the coldest week we have had so far. It's been in the 80s the whole time during the day (4os and 50s at night though). I laugh at people who live back east. I used to live in PA, and I don't miss it at all. Palm trees and bikinis sure do beat snowblowers and 10 layers of clothes

wow that sucks, i remember you telling me it seems that all the mint wheels you get and keep in good condition get fubar'd by the new owner
hope the cycle/curse breaks with the MF10Ls and the new owner will take care of them...

damn...two in a row

hmm...

They were, that sucks especially after you'd taken such good care of them!

Xathine I reckon bronze black or white would suit, but it's your car dude

Yeah man, I got [freak]ed twice in one week.

First a hit and run, then while my car is at the shop theifs own my rims

You didn't like the polished lip? Or just not a fan of the knock offs? lol

I don't know about bronze on VSM.

I was looking at a set of MF10s local, good deal too. But it fell through (he hydroplaned into a semi ruined one or two of them ).

Maybe someone can do a photoshop for me?

Guess this would be the best picture I have for a photoshop
