Let me start off by introducing myself. Hi my name is Justin, and I work for the Navy. Currently deployed on CVN 75, halfway through a 9 month deployment. My evo obsession started when i was about 14 playing GT4 for my dad. Loved the car ever since. My first car was a 03 Scion TC. I bought it without an engine and in pretty bad shape. I restored the car and turned a 8k profit on it. That went towards my new car. 05 apex silver evo 8 SSL. Right now im kinda struggling with the look I want. And being deployed, and not actually being able to look at it first hand is making it all the more difficult. 5 days before I left on deployment I got rear ended, and it pushed me into a SUV in front of me. Below is the outcome of that tiny accident. Fortunately i had good connections and had the entire car repainted, parts replaced and all. all I paid was the deductible. Now to get on topic, I cant decide if I should keep the scheme in said pictures, black rims black or CF lip (rims are getting changed out, thinking about XXR 530's) or color match the lip and go with GG rims. Any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated.

Honestly, I'm not trying to spend a ton on wheels so I would say around 1200 tops. When I do get her to track standards I wont be using aftermarket wheels anyhow. So whatever I get is just for show.

CVN 75? Truman? Sweet!!! I would go with a nose chop, and get some varsstoens rims the ESM 2 I believe are the CE27 look. Leave the lip as is.
I'm a prior CV63, CVN 73, and LCC19. Currently on first shore command.

I was looking at the caliper painting thread on here, and decided that's the first thing I am going to do when I get back. At first I wanted to go with purple silver and black, but I think keeping them red would be a little less ricer. Time to buy some engine enamel lol. As far as those stock rims, they just look nice. When I bought them they were severely curb rashed. A women owned the car previously, I plasti dipped them black so you couldnt see all the damage. Thinking about getting XXR 527's. Pretty much sold on those right now.
