WHEELS/TIRES/BRAKES

Immediately standing out is a set of Kirkey seats, mounted to the floor - something taller and wider drivers will appreciate in such a compact platform with limited space. Santos then took it upon himself to make his own carbon fiber door panels, while a friend of his made him a carbon fiber dash and center console, echoing the carbon fiber lightweight diet of his splitters and canards, as well as that gorgeous APR GT1000 wing mounted to the rear of the chassis.

Once it was tuned and ready to rock, the final piece of the puzzle was to paint the whole thing and lose the original fading white paint. He was having trouble deciding on a color when his friend, Adrian, who worked at an auto repair shop, told Santos to drop the car off and he would surprise him with an aggressive look. Upon showing up to the shop after the job was done, Santos took one look at the gloss black S2000 and never looked back. That black paint served as a perfect backdrop to the custom graphic vinyl wrap he applied before SEMA 2022. We’re glad he trusted that surprise, because this has to be one of the most badass S2000s in Canada.
