Welp, now that the car is getting older, I'm feeling much more comfortable modifying it.
In case you missed them, I've done two ownership reviews [1, 2].
Today I tossed on some new wheels as I was faced with getting new tires. The wheels are from an AP2 (newer) S2000 and are 17s rather than my original 16s. Factoring the price of this (wheels AND tires), the price of new tires, and selling my old wheels, I basically got the wheels for free... I think they're a nice upgrade. It's amazing how my tire options have opened up with the upgrade as well... 16s blow goats.
The only other modifications that the car has are a titanium spoon shift knob, and aftermarket (nice ones) floormats. Oh yeah, and it has some decent speakers.

I also have two other mods in the works. Hopefully they'll both be done by the car show
