No RPF1's for sure, that's out of the question. OEM hardtop should be out of the question also, I'd go with Mugen as I had on mine.
When I had my s2. It was suzuka blue, all stock, then upgraded to front oem lip, oem spoiler, koni yellow/ground control, slammed it, and threw a pair of volk ce28n's magnesium blue, and a mugen hardtop (but you must paint the part shown in bizkit's post black or it'll look like pure shit IMO.
edit: should've said something a little while ago, I just sold my official mugen hardtop only used on car for a couple months for dirt cheap...

How about a used kit and a new replacement turbo or a turbo rebuild kit....most of the parts in that kit will never go bad. mostly only turbos go bad. seals are easy to replace....but if there is shaft play toss it. and if you are broke for the time being you could toss in a "jdm" ebay turbo, i had one for about a year before it went bad...not bad for a 50mm for 200 bucks.

Mostly for when it rains and at night. But who knows it also may grow on me and ill end up leaving it on all the time lke a few people on here.
NONE get your car running correctly in stock form. then maybe consider waisting away on stupid shit like whats in this poll.
