Hey all.

Just out of curiosity, do any of you S2K drivers out there get shat on?

A few weeks ago I had a close call! I was driving topless and a bird shat on the very edge of my wind screen. Had I been driving 5 k's faster it would have been smack bang on my face. I guess luck was on my side! lol.

I heard a story a while back where a friend of a friend test drove an M3 convertible and pulled up next to a cattle truck at the lights and a cow shat out the side of the truck and it all went inside the car. Obveously he didnt end up buying the car lol

If you're that worried about bird poo, I hope you never walk down the street without an umbrella. ;)

At worst, you grumle a bit, clean it up, and get on with your life. At best, it's a story to share with others about that time that the bird crapped on you.

There's a lot of things in life more serious then that!

I got stung by a bee right under my eye... LOL

I wasnt really driving though. I was coming into a drive way, and all i felt was a little hit under my eye. Then it wouldnt get off.. Slammed on the brakes and looked over to my mum..
I knew something was f%^& when she looked at me and screamed.. HAHA
Ended up with a swollen eye.

I have to say though, cruising through the city on a warm summer night with the top down and a girly in the passenger seat is awesome.

can you use aerospace protectant on stay fast cloth roofs? and where do you get it from?

I'd also like to know where to get the aerospace 303 stuff from. Can't seem to locate it anywhere (but then again I can't say I've searched hard enough lol)

See it my local Autobarn (doncaster), they've had it for a while. Before that store got them in i used to get it online.

Great stuff, really makes the roof black again!

If you're worried about getting c***'d on... don't by any convertible. If you have alergies to bees/wasps/ anything like that, either be aware, or carry some sort of anti-hystiamine, or other medication, becuase that's what will help. I know, I'm alergic to wasps, and that's helped me a couple of times so far (but nothint to do with driving the S2000 yet).

Apart from that, just drive it. If you are thinking of buying a convertible, but worried that you're going to get soem bird s***ing on you.... you might as well worry about driving at all and having someone else run into you. the chances are a lot higher.

like kimnkk said, aerospace 303 can be found at autobarn. i got mine from autobarn doncaster. There are 2 different versions. 1 is for vinyl and canvas while the other is for fabrics (if i remember correctly). Its costs around $50 (i think) but its worth it. It comes with a cleaner and the protectant and its very easy to apply both. All you need is an upholstery brush and a microfiber towel, if u can find an upholstery brush like me you can use a toothbrush (it took ages but my roof now looks new so meh) If you like the s2000 but dont want a convertible you can always buy a hardtop for it. Either mugen or spoon make great hardtops that make the car look epic. Otherwise you can just drive with the tent up :P

never squirted a cyclists. But when on the freeway and someone is tailgating you press it and it coveres his car. Did it to a bmw m3. i was in the left lane going 100kmh with both lanes next to me free and the bmw tailgated. so i pressed it 3 times. covered his whole car with soap and water lolz
