Default any aftermarket wings for s2000?

I'm going to be purchasing an s2000 within the next month or so. Was wondering if anyone has found any aftermarket wings for it? i'm not talking about super terminator 6000 wings or any aluminium crap. I've always been a fan of the mid-range wing. My civic had the si wing, my integra had the type-r wing, and was wondering if there was a similar wing for the s2000? Also, the salesperson thats taking care of me told me that there might not be a hard top available for the 00-02 s2000's because they came out in 03 and he is unsure of the backwards compatibility. Is this true? Thanks!

Just get an OEM wing if you want something understated. As for the HT, it fits all years. Some earlier years I believe, require some additional hardware to work, but it's nothing big.

the mugen wing or the feels wing look very nice.. or just get the oem.... keep in mind the mugen wing is aerodynamically tested, but if you get it you might as well get the mugen hardtop as well. so go check those out... and umm as for the hard top... they all fit.. and as power by honda has stated... you might need to get some hardware for them to fit... it's just mainly a couple of clams...

nice. well thats good to know, because winter in an s2000 is going to be a bitch. My friend are all saying "that thing is going to be a f-in sled during the winter." jealous fools . I just cant imagine seeing piles of snow railing on the poor soft top of the s2000. Any pics of the mugen wing on the s2000? And how does it handle in the snow? Thanks!

The wing does look nice, but the sticker price on that bad boy might make it look terrible . What is the smallest size tire that can go on the s2000? I've always been a proponent of getting the shortest gear, and fastest acceleration in my honda/acura so i've always had super light weight 15" wheels. I doubt an s2000 could accept a 15" wheel with brakes as big as it has.

just stay with the stock 16" wheels... and if you really want faster acceleration, go change out your final gear set... go get a 4.77 gears.. and you'll be flying...

Um, okay there champ

OEM wing (the duckbill style one) looks the best, IMO.

I dont know that will also look good, but I saw one with the top down with the wing and it looked really nice. I guess it will look better with the HT cause that is what it mostly shown, they really dont show it with the soft top.
