What the hell are you talking about The wing on the Evo IX is not carbon fiber on the sides it's ABS plastic. The only cf on the wing is already visable.

However I did tell Carlos from AMS bodyworks, to strip the paint on the wing to reveal all the carbon fiber and then clear over it. So that should look killer!

Then I will order a carbon fiber hood, trunk and lip. And to top it off, maybe some Work Emotion cr wheels.

Cant wait ti pick it up! But definatly take you'r time, I am in no hurry!

Thanks AMS you are the best!

I actually told him not to do it as I have not seen it done to a 9 yet. I dont want to pay for that then have to repaint it, I will let someone else be the guinnypig on that one!

On a side note, I have opted for the Weds SA-70 in Bronze 18 inch. Now I just need to get bigger tires.

Man I have only had this thing 2 weeks and it feeld like it is costing me my left nut already!

That's a good thing you told them not to

Trust me the wings sides are complete ABS plastic with no cf anywhere, I wish I was wrong since I have a white evo now I wanted to make my wing all cf as well.

um ok. I stated they were NOT a nonprofit anyways....
I am a tech and when the service advisor tries to give my labor away I remind them that I am a *****, not a ****, I get paid for what I do

I am glad you decided to get the work done
be sure to post pics and dyno sheets if available

Talking

Well I dont have any pics but the car is pulling very strong, and awaiting an AMS flash, Alky inj. and a cam. Then in spring a GT35r Kit.

I found a set of Grey BBS MR wells, so I will be using those for now until after more GO-FAST mods, then I'll get a set on Bronze Works from AMS.

By the way I put 1200 miles on the car since picking it up at AMS!
