Sleepers ????
i give no one more credit then they deserve,but when people see a low slung tinted car with a big wing they dont think its slow. now im talking about my car. civics and **** yeah, i just think that the whole sleeper thing is ghey, people almost always give cars more credit then they deserve, not less.

I love ripping the doors off of car that think they are hot SH*T because you look stock . Its almost as pleasing as hearing a woman say "i am wrong, you are right !".

A sleeper is taking a subtle vehicle and making it fast (like putting FI on a NA car). Purposely doing things to try and make an EVO a sleeper isn't worth the time and money. Besides, who tries to tries to pull the "sleeper" routine with a $30K car?

An STi would probably be easier to achieve the sleeper look with. Install a FMIC, and then put on an RS hood. Also ditch the rear park bench.
