Being Sick at Home from work has one advantage... Modding!!!

Anyway here is a simple Visual mod that will make your S2000 look more original.

When you look on the internet at the original s2000 cars you see that it has a grill at the front. The Bit body does not have this, so I decided to make one.

First off make sure that when you put the car part into the body that the tab of the car does not protrude out of the slit in the body. Mine didn't but I am not sure that other body's are the same. If the latch protrudes from the body then file it down with sanding paper.

Next thing is to start looking into your CD collections. Some CD cases have a dark grey ribbed thing at one side (makes it easier to pick up the CD) (like it's a real heavy object!). This part is connected to the CD holder. Remove this and cut it down to the general shape. Sand down the back using a dremel or sanding paper so that it fits into the front. Sand the edges and attach with glue.

The S2000 also has small air intakes to each side. You can use the same mod there but looking around your house to find an even finer mesh is worthwhile. Since I am sick, nothing in my house is safe. Yesterday I spent 3 hours taking apart a laptop, Hard disk, TV, and... a microwave oven...

Now just to figure out what to eat tonight :-)
