I just wanted to say hi, I got my evo about 3 months ago

And it's nice. I'm a ASE certified mazda tech and somebody traded it in to my dealership, I was asked to test drive it and I loved it lol. I drove it home that day. I have a 48 month aftermarket warranty on it so hopefully everything breaks and I can get paid to fix it. A little whoring out here too, I'm looking for an evo 8 drivers floor mat and a center cap for a evo MR wheel (they are kosei right?) But howdy people and this looks like a cool board.

Ok, they looked like the ones on MR's but are made by kosei. I'll have to get that aftermarket then lol. I also need to get a front plate bracket for it, did they ever come with one from the factory?

i think u should leave it out, mine came with it but they drill it on, i hate it. leave it out if ur area don't require a front plate, if u do than by all mean's go get one.

You also have to remove the front bumper to install them which is a PITA. My area requires them so I have no choice. If I were to remove them I'd have little ugly holes that would just look atrocious.

Yup that's why i left my license plate bracket on, but alot of people just tape something over it, or get some rubber plugs and stick it in, don't look too bad.
