I'll have to post pics when I get a chance but wanted to rattle off the parts purchased and received before I forget.
-OMP SupraQuadro d-shaped steering wheel (from Sakurajima Express)
-Dali CF rad shroud and vent (works in conjunction with the vented hood to direct air through the radiator).
-Dali large weave CF headlight covers (I already have a beautiful set from the Procar but the small weave looks funny with my large weave CF bonnet.
-new replacement front license plate bracket from SoS to replace the one stolen at NSXPO last year :(
-S0S front speaker panels so I can finally dump the crappy Bose speakers.
and...
New wheels!Advan RS in gunmetal finish. 17/18 diameters (17x8 et37, 18x10et35). I love the 18/19 gold CE28N's I had but the large wheels were a bit too much on what is turning into a more track-focused car. I will be throwing my Bridgestone SO-3's from my Tecnomags onto these wheels and replacing them with a set of Toyo RA1's for track duty. So, now I will be running 17/18's on both track and street wheels. :) Bye-bye rubber-band tires!
Also received: new CF door switchpanel pieces, new 2DIN console minus the ashtray, and CF door leather triangle replacements pieces. I'll be picking up a new pair of Polk 6.5" speakers in the next few weeks for the doors. Byebye shitty oem Bose speakers. :)
Rick (s4play) on NSXPrime is offering these trick CF convex rear view mirrors. His price was around $375 for the thing. I also checked Ebay and was quoted $340 USD shipped. Getting better. More snooping around and I found the company that makes them in Japan called Zoom-Engineering. Their price was $165 USD. SOLD! They are , however, optimized for RHD cars but who cares, they look 10x better than the circa 1990's Honda Accord mirror that came with the car.
I dropped off the trunklid trim piece from the Voltex wing to Fiore at S&G Autobody to paint match. Come spring that will be the first thing to go on the car. I will also need a new Optima battery as I know my old one is on its last legs. That will go on as well so that my rad shroud can be put over it.
The turbo possibility remains...
