You're only 19yrs old and already have a machine like that? What happened to the days when youngens started with their moms Buick?! Jeez! I hate you! 
Nah, but looks real good. And yeah, don't drop it so much even though it might look good. Will kill the cars racey suspension and it's struts for that matter!
Good luck with it!

Just because you don't scrape doesn't mean the car isn't too low; ever hear of suspension geometry? The Evo is setup from the factory to be incredibly well balanced, dumping the car that low completely ruins all of the geometry. The control arms are no longer parallel, among other things. The engineers that setup the Evo knew what they were doing, moreso than you or I. Someday when you're older you'll understand what we're saying...
Wheels look good though. Raise the car back up and you'll be good to go.
EDIT: I just read your how-to, nice write up. However, you're not the first person to do that paint scheme. Cocky youngin'

you guys are the whiniest bunch of jealous people i've ever seen. who cares how old he is, who cares if he lives with his parents. damn. you guys always cry when someone young has an evo, get the **** over it.
and schleppy you crack me up, i'm sure that with age, will come the knowledge of suspension geometry

Hey good job being 19 and having an evo. I got my 03 evo when I was 19 and at that time I bought my own house, as well as bought my own car. I am a manager for Office Depot so I make decent money. I hate when young people get stereo typed because of some of the younger kids that are cocky as$HOLES and they have mommy and daddy by them everything. I think he deserves some credit working his as$ off and being able to afford a beautiful evo! Keep up the good work man!
