Well I haven't posted pics recently and I was taking pics for my classifieds ad, so here are some updated pics. The car is dirty as hell, I don't plan to wash it because it gets dirty from the fog anyway.
The new additions are the passenger SPG, the Carbing bar and the roll bar.
Sorry for the crappy pic taking skills.

The seats are Recaro SPG. They were 750 plus shipping a piece. The c-pillar is the HK Type-R club special c-pillar. Pretty beefy piece that allows for rear passengers. Doesn't matter to me though, cuz nobody can sit back there.

i hope your not one of those who refer to that the jdm front end looks like an accord because it looks almost nothing like the accord headlights

Whatever.....all these guys that say it looks like an accord would do the conversion if it was FREE. It was in my case, so I don't really worry. Besides, I like blinding oncoming traffic with JDM spec HID's

Well that's the interesting thing. When I had only one seat....my friends would complain that I was selfish. I used to get rides from them cuz my car was a one seater. So I felt bad. I saved up for another seat because I wanted my friends to be able to ride around town and at the track.
But now that the seat is in, they say it is too upright and therefore uncomfortable. So now that I have two seats, most of the time I still ride alone.
Ah well.....I guess everyone can't be happy. But i know I'm happy and that's the important thing.
After a day of getting used to the seat, I would never go back to a reclinable for any sports car. My back feels a lot more supported and I think it's actually improved my posture.
no complaints here.

Thanks for the compliments guys. I should have some new shoes by this weekend too. I'm not sure what yet though. The new wheels will be for the street only. Also looking for some track wheels in the near future.
Here are my choices:
Street
-jdm 16's painted black
-volk se37 16's bronze
Track
-slipstreams in black 16
-Cosworth's millenia wheels
Well I got the jdm 16's for the street. They are white, but I'm going to paint them sometime soon. The volk's will have to wait. I'll make sure my friend takes pics this time. Angled/side shots will be available soon!

Street go with the Volks, and track go with the Rotas. I wish I had your kind of money. I think I would be slapping a tubo in instead of those seats/wheels for that kind of money 
Nice setup though!!

jdmspoonitr,
awesome ride. I saw this in person. unfortunately I didn't get a ride in it because of no passenger seat
glad that issue is resolved.
jdmspoonitr I may be coming back to cali in mid december.
