Mitsubishi Offering Evo X with Lip Spoiler?

Don't flame me if this is old news, but I don't think I've seen this yet on the forums. I was at the dealership today, and I saw an Evo X with a lip spoiler. I checked the Mitsubishi website, and it didn't seem like this was an option. Either way, enjoy the pics.

Yeah it's an option in Japan, and I don't see why they wouldn't offer it here! In fact, if you look at a Base GSR with the small wing and aero package it has this same lip spoiler underneath the wing

yeah the lip spoiler been out for a while. but it's usually part of one of those aero packages. that is the first evo i've seen with no wing of any kind and the lip spoiler. pretty nice. ask the dealer how they got that combo. must have been ordered that way otherwise they'd have to cover up the holes in the trunk.

that is teh awesome!
I've really wanted to get a lip spoiler ... was wondering about how the holes would look on the trunk though.

I'm 28yrs old going on 40 ... so the oversized spoiler is a bit too much for me. I like the lip spoiler because I feel it gives it a classier look.

If I were to go wingless, I would get that lip spoiler. It looks a little too naked w/o it & just a plain trunk.

I thought the **** end of an EVO X looked like this. With name badges and all. How do you know the car you saw was an EVO X? By the window sticker? Just curious.

Looks really clean like that, but I would go for the aftermarket carbon fiber lip spoiler and trunk when they finally come around to it. I like it with the regular spoiler IMO.

You can't see it in the pictures, but it had brembo's along with Evo X wheels. And, I'm pretty sure that it had the Evo X interior. I thought it wasn't an Evo X, but I asked one of the service guys and he said it was. Sorry I don't have more info guys, my mind was on my evo getting serviced.

the front end, the rear diffuser, the brakes, wheels, etc; it's an evo X no doubt. And by the way, that is an option, but it has a specific name and I don't remember it. It's not available if you have a spoiler, probably because it wouldn't fit, but if it does I think that this will look badass and would consider picking one up if it's not too expensive.
