Wingless

I took my Evo 8 off the market, and I decided to make it look a little more "grown-up". Yes, its dirty. No excuses, just other priorities.

Mods since last photo shoot:

- Carbon fiber hood and trunk from evo_ippo (seibon hood is in Before pictures
- Mines style carbon fiber trunk lid spoiler
- Painted the JDP carbon fiber front lip, body color
- JDM 7 taillights
- JDM 9 bumper
- *Edit: Modified rear crash beam
- Chopped and re-welded JunB.L exhaust (to fit with 9 bumper)
- Darker tint
- Blacked out headlights
- Aerocatch Plus Flush Pins (to be installed)


Pictures are terrible quality but they get the general idea across. I hope you like it.

Before:









After:

That would be nice. Unfortunately, every civic, neon, and kid driving a minivan tries to race me even without the wing.

I'm really happy with the results. I don't think you can go wrong either way.

I will say that wingless looks a lot better with the JDM IX bumper. It's nice to loose the USDM ghetto booty

I personally think it would look more "grown up" without the c/f hood and trunk. Looks good though.
