Awesome I/C I was trying to get a look at the I/C on my VII a while ago. Size it up by looking through the bumper does not do it justice.

But your picture sure shows it in its full glory. No wonder the stock one is so hard to beat for the aftermarket manufacturers.

The Evo VII wheel is 17X8JJ, ET+38, PCD=5-114.3, hub dia 60.7 and weighs 10.2kg

This is what the I/C piping on an Evo looks like:

i'm not paying much for the evo7 "used" (30k miles) FMIC, so then i do

RRE told me it'll fit... you'll just have to get creative on mounting.
