Aso you are lucky as fuck to have found a black one with the owner wiling to sell.
Also let me know if you need any front end parts i have a front end shell in my lock up with quite a bit left on it.
|
Hopefully I wont be needing any front end parts! But thanks 
It is standard yup, they just look so flmisy and pathetic haha
I saw it for sale last year and really wanted it then, then the guy who ended up buying it decided to keep his s2k so I had to have it when it went back up for sale! The only other black one I could find was in Ireland, looked an absolute minter but he had no service history.

It's actually really really quiet! Looks like it should be a horrible booming chavbox, but its just subtly sporty  and i quite like the blue tip  lol

Ah I couldn't see if it was definitely a 2 tone or not, I just saw it nipping onto the roundabout from the garage and it sounded a bit fruity.

Aged so well - still looks great now, and it's 17 years old!
How much does something like that cost (if you don't mind me asking)?

Does look great in black.
Apart from the not as common part, i don't understand why anyone would pay the premium for an EK9 over the better, and cheaper DC2.

I dont really like the DC2 looks and dont want to pay the extra on insurance. These are a lot less common as you said, and it just really does it for me in black. DC2 looks so outdated, and I think these still look good for such an old car!
plus they're really holding their value, even over in japan

so the car went off to the bodyshop yesterday. miss it already ha
It is a minter, and tbf, you'd probably not even notice the bits on the car, but I want her perfect
after a having a look round the car, its having both front bumpers, both doors and rear quarters and round the drivers side door, plus a machine polish!
someones tried to break into it at some point on both sides, and made a bit of a mess... so these will all be gone..!
theres scratches on my bonnet, and one on my rear quarter - they should hopefully polish out
neither bumper sit properly either, so that will be sorted
and one of my scabby engine bay...
and one before she went off to the bodyshop!
excuse all the watermarks, i dont think its seen a coat of wax in a while and ive only jetwashed it off since i got it as i knew it was going straight in the bodyshop. full detail when i get it back though 
oh, and stickers will all be coming off and new genuine decals need to be sorted! £120 for 3 stickers!!!!!!

tbf, it's one of those things you wouldnt even really notice unless someone pointed out to you!
I'm getting it done for a decent price by someone who's ten times more anal than me, and i knocked most of it off the price of the car, so its not too bad
