Unofficial FE Evo Thread
Since there isn't one yet, I thought I'd start this thread off.
I recently traded up to a OB FE from a 2011 TB RA. As much as I loved my RA, the evo really is a huge step up performance wise. It's so much more stable and capable than the RA. With the Bilsteins, it's more comfortable too!
So far it's stock with a Greddy front lip and Blizzak WS80 winter tires but I do already have wheels and coilovers ready to install in the spring.

Nice! You got the OEM lip kit. I really want the rear rocker moldings. They make quite a difference on the look of the rear.
Also, what exhaust is that?

It still looked nice, but it looked a little "off" to me.
Edit:
Here's a pic that I took of the white car at the dealership:

Unfortunately, we have had exactly 0 days with sunlight since I bought my FE in late November, and it's now on FlatStoppers in my garage waiting for spring/summer, so I don't have any good pictures of my car.
With that said, here's my FE ( US #104 ) right before I washed her for her winter nap:

As she sits right now, there are 503 miles on it, but my plan is to put somewhere between 1k-1,500 before I take it past 5k rpm.
As far as the beater car... I found an 03 Sebring LXI with only 60k miles on it that I picked up for $2,000. Decent enough car I guess, but I really don't like driving it all that much (it's the first automatic I've had since buying my first car), and I can't wait for nice weather to get back in the Evo!
The winter will give me a good chance to get my hands on Recaros, and order a few other things for it though, so I guess it's not that bad. Plus, I'm keeping the winter wear and tear off it, so the car should be in great shape many years down the road!
