  • After racing ALL our cars in the last video I thought id' be time to come to terms with all of you as to why the Honda S2000 Turbocharged Build has been hidden away and what we plan to do with it over the next few weeks. The ultimate goal? Get your help on finishing this up because when its done i'm confident it'll be exactly what we want :)

    Should we aim to finish this first or the F430? Let me know below because the projects are piling up and the anxiety is slowly creeping 🙃

    As someone who has wide bodied their car, I understand the pain. For those who are looking to wide body your car be weary that all kits are not made equal. Sometime the same kit can work fine on one car, while your kit may need more TLC. I honestly would check Rocket bunny body kit for the S2000, as its a bit cheaper, and rocket bunny is known for its amazing fitments on cars. Keep at it Alex, you got this!

    You know, part of me wants the S2k to have that "funk" of a widebody fitment to stay there as a testament of "yeah, we did a widebody. No it doesnt fit perfect, but fuck it we tried and it at least runs and drives well." But another part of me wants to have that widebody to have a bit more work on it to have it fit as perfect as you can to make the whole piece fit and flow well just for the aesthetic. Either way, i cant wait to see the process and final build of clap car. Keep up the good work Alex!

    I would love to see it painted and have livery stickers on it in the colors of the MartiniWorks website or the colors of your bag that was available at one point. I think geometric styling would be your best bet and get some numbers. I would love to see the widebody kit finished but it may have to wait until next year. The money is invested and sometimes body stuff just takes forever. I am personally more invested in the Gloria and this than the F430 but it’d be great to get any of them! Videos are solid as ever keep them comin!

    If you’ve never drove time attack before just leave the cosmetics for after you’ve learned how to drive more. If you’re pushing the car your definitely gonna make mistakes sometimes wait till your comfortable in it and just get seat time. I’ve seen people run our local touge after finishing a build paint,suspension,bodywork,engine mods and they spin out or hit the guardrail and it’s all for nothing.

    My condolences Alex I know how much it sucks for a project to not turn out the way you thought it would.
    I'd say finish this build first, fuck it, whatever time it takes.
    Because personally it hurts when I don’t complete a project I wanted to.

    In my humble opinion, get the car wrapped after you make this widebody kit as clean as you can. No widebody car is perfect, you can get close, but it’s very rare that that happens. Part of the appeal, at least to me

    Alex is so right. Those widebody kits need so much work!! Thats why so many of them dont look clean when you get up close and personal.
    Spend 6k on a veilside widebody and the labor on fitting the kit was IMMENSE. Yeah, maybe some brands are better than others, but its far from bolt on

    A lot of the times with wide bodies, the molds end up getting worn out with being used which causes the kit to not exactly fit right. I’m fairly confident I’m telling you something you know already because I heard something similar in the podcast(go listen to it if you haven’t. Is great 🤌) that in and of itself could be the issue as to why the kit doesn’t fit so well. As to comparing yourself to throtl, they’ve got about 5x manpower as you working on one car with about 100 years of knowledge and expertise combined. They’re naturally going to know the ins and outs of things, Ricky himself said he had 2 different s2k’s prior. Don’t beat yourself up too much about it. After seeing the kit in person, I’d say go with it, it would be awesome to see it through and have it painted some wild color
