Mitsubishi Evolution 8 Rebuild

Hey Guys. Not to make this a long story or anything but I had a White Evo 8 and it was stolen. Got the car in 08 and only had it for 6 months then it disappeared. Found it 3 days later and it looked like the below picture(s). These morons even cut the front support bar. Took till now but im finally putting it back together and I just want to post progress pics. Thanks for peeping/comments.

Sorry for what happened... That's gotta be the worst feeling in the world.
I'm glad to see that you're putting her back together! I'm excited for the end results

Good Luck!

Damn man, Im sorry. I can only imagine if someone stole my car. I had my Banshee 4-wheeler stolen a few months ago. I felt sick to my stomach when I found out. I truly hope you are able to get it back on the road. Too bad they didnt catch the low life ******...

Jesus that's a scary feeling. If I were in your position, I would rebuild as well instead of start over. It's worth it to me.

I've had one of my built cars stolen and it sucks....I'm glad you were able to get it back with not much missing! Good luck on the rebuild!

Thumbs up Finally!!

Hey guys, so the last pic is just a montage of the car because I posted it on Instagram and erased the others on my phone cause I was running out of memory. Ill post some more pics soon. The front bumper is fked up(Its an Evo 9 bumper; grey) and all torn but its just on the car not until I get my Evo 8 oem bumper but ill have to get it painted; Im suppose to be getting it Wednesday.

Im not driving the car right now because I have to get it registered and insured. I also posted pics of my 1997 ex coupe fully converted to 2000 si with a JDM b20 with a GSR tranny. Skunk2 Short shifter with Skunk2 Shift knob, Skunk2 springs, Type r shift knob and NRG Steering wheel...has a couple other goodies

The headlights could use a good buffing lol but other than that it's a clean looking civic.
I'm glad you're getting your Evo put back together!!
