And just to settle the case about the wing color, straight from the horse's mouth:
Compared to the five-speed Lancer Evolution, the new Lancer Evolution MR Edition is distinguished by the addition of an exclusive new color called Graphite Gray. Named after a carbon compound that implies lightweight and strength, Graphite Gray complements other dark color tones and reflects the Lancer Evolution's extensive use of carbon, aluminum and other high-tech materials. The color also accentuates the model's no-frill functional aesthetics. The outboard faces of the rear-deck spoiler plates use a dark gray finish close to the color of the carbon wing, replacing the body color-keyed treatment on the other colors.

My guess is that the wing is in fact the same color as the car.
MR in my Garage
Well, I picked up my MR in Santa Clara yesterday, after an unexpected deal came through. I feel bad, I kinda crapped on dizzigital. We had a deal on paper, but, that was before a dealership about 300 miles closer called me and wanted to deal. Anyway, he was cool and I totally appreciate him trying to hook me up, he is solid in my book.
Anyway, I had to work right after I got the car, so the pictures blow, but I did not want to be the kind of person who does not use visual aids
I would comment on drving it but I got it about 3 in the afternoon, just in time to park in traffic!!
Anyhow, here are a copule of shots of the car and the sticker before I ripped it off. I still miss my GSX, but the MR has put a **** eating grin on my face that you couldn't knock off with a jackhammer. Surprise!!! I got the gray!!
