Thanks guys. I'm in Palm City, which is right next to Stuart. In other words, only 5 miles from Autogeek. Here's my thread from last year when I detailed the S2000: http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/show-n-shine/84000-third-time-s-charm-my-laguna-blue-pearl-2006-s2000.html I'll be doing...

Pics of unboxing the coating: This is what I used on the entire car (paint, glass, wheels) Aaand the money shots, followed by some images I took just playing around with a new fisheye lens I got. The interior didn't need anything but a vacuum and wipe down with Optimum Leather Protectant...

Some pics I snapped during the wash process, followed by the polishing process. Uber Compound with the rotary and wool pads, just like any other compound used with a rotary and wool pads (lol) left some hazing as you could see from the photos. This was very easily removed with Finishing Glaze...

Picked up a new daily driver, a 2006 330i 6spd with sport, premium and cold weather packages. The car had 2 previous owners and while you'd never guess by looking at it, it has 112k miles on it. It's obviously been very well cared for by its previous owners. But, as with most cars on the road...

Can't tell a difference, they matched it spot on. As for the S2K vs Z06 discussion...I never enjoyed my Z06 as any of my previous S2000s and I've already put almost as many miles on this car in 12 days than I did my Z06 in the past year. I just never could really afford to enjoy the Z06 because...

And the finished product. I also installed an eBay spoiler which matched perfectly and was only $88 shipped. Paint was sealed with Pinnacle Black Label Paint Sealant and topped with Wolfgang Fuzion Carnauba Polymer Estate Wax. Front and rear bumpers were waxed with Optimum Car Wax (safe on fresh...

All wheels were removed for a thorough cleaning using Griot's Garage Wheel Cleaner and CarPro IronX, and sealed with RejeX. Paint was polished using a Flex XC3401 VRG. Lake Country 6" Hybrid Wool Power Finish with a mixture of Meguiar's D301 and M105 to cut, and a Crimson...

I started by washing the car and using CarPro IronX to decontaminate the finish of any embedded iron particles. As the product dissolves iron, it turns purple and looks like a bloodbath, as you can see below. My neighbor saw what I was doing and got curious. Since he had...

This is my third S2000 and I've now owned it less than two weeks. As some of you may already know, I decided to get rid of my 2008 Z06 for this (still for sale at the time of this post...in case anyone is interested) and I picked it up on August 6, 2014. It's a 2006 Laguna Blue Pearl and I...

Honda revised the third gear assembly in 2009 and this transmission feels great so far. I can't find any faults mechanically and there are zero signs of the paint failing from a manufacturing standpoint. I had an '07 Fiji Blue Pearl previously and the paint sucked. I know Nighthawk Black Pearl...

It's awesome. Seen some crazy stuff and I'm having a blast. I actually look forward to going to work every day and don't want my shift to end when it's over :props: That's how they come from the factory...

Think I put the wrong link for the last pic...it was supposed to be my favorite pic!

Thanks guys. The seat does look brand new since I removed the cover and vacuumed it. I like RejeX a lot...it's one of the more durable sealants out there plus it's extremely slick and very easy to work with.

Back from the dead for a little while, I haven't been in one of these cars since I sold my 2007 FG2 in January of 2008. I really wanted another S2000 but having two two-seaters would be retarded. I recently picked up this '09 ROP FA5 with 40k miles from a guy in Kansas and had it shipped to me...

Thanks for sharing Mike! :cheers:

:props:

Hands where I can see em! :D

Yup, the color scheme lasted from the 1930s through 1972. After that, they switched to light blue.

It's not legal to drive it if it says "police" or has any red/blue lights. My dad is getting magnets made to cover the "police" lettering and he has a vinyl cover for the light and siren :props:

We just installed all the decals and got the new front bumper on so I thought I'd snap some pics. I also wanted to extend another HUGE thanks to Mike Phillips, Max, and everyone else who contributed to making this car look as good as it does. My dad and I are really happy with the way it's...
