Evo 8 with body kit at International Auto Salon

At overboost.com, they have pictures from the International Auto Salon in LA. There is this one blue Evo 8 with a tight body kit. Anyone know who made the kit? Here is the link

Here's the info

(EDIT: Overboost has aparently blocked direct access to their picture from this board, so click the link for the picture.)

Mitsubishi has made several of their Lancer Evolutions available to the aftermarket, with this particular sample being granted to K&N. K&N has completed development on a high-performance intake for their EVO, and we were told that the vehicle was a bit of a challenge when compared to some others. We spoke to K&N's program manager Richard Blum, "When we put a simple piece of pipe with an air filter, the car actually lost about 15 horsepower on the dyno. Our engineers actually had to devise a system of internal buffers in the pipe in order for this system to make more power over stock. Now, we're getting 15 horse to the wheels over stock, and I've seen them go as high as 20."

Almost anything that replaces the stock grill is an improvement
