Saw this car at Sema. Yes, it does have Ings+1 front and rear bumpers (maybe replicas). The widebody on the other hand is completely custom made, and it has HUGE gaps everywhere.

Congrats on the mag. spread. Car looks good, just not my taste. I think the factory body lines of the evo is better than any kit out there imo.

i would have to agree with most. thats more rice than anything. wheels that dont fit the kit. could be lower for a show car. not a clean layout of decals. STOCK RUBBER PEDALS! overall theres not much style or theme to the car. just a combo of parts and $. there are plenty of members on here that would be more worthy for a mag spread. but i guess paint and a wide body wins shows. not function over form, not style over $

Everybody is so negative... I think theres a million other cars out there that would deserve the term "rice" over his evo. He went a different route than most would with his car but isn't building a vehicle all about individuality?

Iam not going to lie. Iam proud that the car made it yet it was rushed and when cars are rushed you skip the things which need to be done right. It had CE28's on the car at one point and that was alot better.

I know he looked for the best and iam sure the idea was for the best. Yet the overall look to the tuners eye is lacking many things.

When the car was first started....





And when it was somewhat at its best....


The only issue is offset and rims will kill a car no matter what you do to make it look good. Rims will break a car quicker then anything.

I am so glad you were able to jump into the thread and make sure everyone knew the extent and value of your knowledgeable input on the subject at hand.
You have yet to point anything out other then your ignorance. There is no mirror under the car yet alone "cotton burnout".

Nice try to flame away a car when really you just wasted a spot in time which no one shall get back.
