your Evo looks good. I plan on debadging my rear and getting some JDM tails myself. Did you get snow tires yet? (or are you running all seasons?)

Only evos that came with the SSL (Sun Sound & Leather) package came with sunroofs. The SEs never came with the SSL package. Probably wouldn't be able to anyway because the SEs have an aluminum roof.

What was rigged on the car when you got it? And im glad your getting the bugs out.

I dont really dont post pics on here because I dont have anything to show off everyone has seen a stock evo before. But im buying parts and trying to build up the suspension this winter-spring.

The car came with a triple A-pillar pod with 3 pos glow shift gauges in it and the wires weren't soldered or even twisted together for that matter, they actually hooked the two wires then taped them, anything that was run through the car was very poorly done (wires hanging on steering column from gauges). The stock amp had all of the wires cut and then taped back together like they had an aftermarket amp in and took it back out. There is a flip out dvd player that all the wires were done the same way. Really pissed me off that someone would do this to a car like this.

In any case, your car looks good, always nice to see a clean stocker. Looks like you got a JDM rear bumper?

Everything I have done to it is in my Signature. I just recently installed a LC-1 wideband and the Greddy EBC, I have the Perrin shorty antenna. I plan on getting new headlights sometime in the very near future. I want to get a new intercooler, all new piping, get rid of the stock intake, probably switch to the mini battery, tint the windows some. Just some general stuff, it is already pretty quick as is and I'm just enjoying having a reliable DD that can still woop up on about anything around here.

Is that a JDM bumper? Some Euro tails would look great IMO.
