IMHO, things like that look like mods people do when they don't have enough money to buy real ones.

Wow, why dont you go wash all these guys cars and clean thier houses to, since your obviously a robot. WTF. Who give a f*ck what the next guy thinks. Are they gonna volunteer to pay your car note or are you paying it. Whats important about YOUR CAR is what YOU THINK. Thats why the car customizing business is big. There is a thing called individuality , meaning you do you! 9 out of 10 EVO guys will hate any non go fast mods, but 9 out of 10 of em are not paying for your car so who cares. Add another ROBOT to the EVO community.

Buy the car first then post, cause think of it this way, if you dont buy the car, your just wasted a 2 page thread.

Soon-to-Evolve,

Looking at the pics of the interior, I'm pretty sure that there is a has a overlay kit on the interior panels - it is not painted.

If you buy the car, and then decide that you want to remove the overlays:

'3M Primerless Acrylic Foam Tape' is commonly used to attach virtually every dash overlay kit. Because the 3m tape doesn't require the use of a surface promoter (which eats into & destroys the underlying surface), with care & a lot of patience, every one of those pieces can be removed without damaging anything underneath - just use a hair dryer to heat up an edge of an overlay until the adhesive tape holding it on softens. Once you're able to pull an edge up & away with your fingers, heat up the adjacent areas, and then slowly & evenly pull the rest of the overlay off.

No-one will ever know there was ever an overlay kit on the car...


Tacky? To each their own...
