Dime sized spiderweb crack in windshield (insurance is fixing it monday)
I hate where I had to mount my LC-1 on the rear crossbar.
Car had scratches (it was new too) from dealer, they fixed it, but I can see almost invisible scratches on the passanger side skirt, and a chip on the underside of front bumper.... I should have inspected it better!
I put a few scratches in the dash installing various what-nots. Ill fix that when Im done with the interior.
Orbital kit is looking uglier every day, radio will NOT mount well in it, the opening is a little too large.
Cant see gas level with autometer pod!! (neet the ati one I think)
Dirty as heck, (been in the garage for about a month now w/o driving)
currently stock exhaust mani is rusted.. was from day 1 with less than 17 miles.
ETS intake, literally rests on the ETS UICP and is scratching it up...
Removed MR gauges and couldnt get wire out for oil temp transmitter, so I cut it off and tied it out of the way, I know Ill have to deal with it one day.
Always have to decide to spend on Guitars or Evo, ... tough choices.

Anyone else got a dead rear wiper motor? I tried to use mine for the FIRST time yesterday, and now it's apparently broken... the wiper arm moves like it's not attached to anything. My car has less than 10k miles on it!!
Also, I'm average height (5' 10") and with the steering wheel at the right height for me, the rim completely blocks the the top of the speedo and tachometer...

Ticking sound from lifters
Rock chips everywhere on front end
DP rattles
When shut the doors something near the rear bumper rattles loud
I get bad gas mileage
I attract cops because my car has "racing brakes and wheels" according to one cop (I drive a 99% stock MR).
After driving in the rain and parking it overnight, the next morning comes to move the car and the pads are still glued to the rotors taking more than a pushings worth of gas to free it up.
Occasional dash rattle
Rusted up manifold and I live in freaking SOCAL for jeebus sakes.

passenger front brake peeling, the grill in the fmic looks like its been through a hurricane, rock chips up the shiz. the leather on the seats looks cracked but havent cracked yet.(thank god) 40k on an evoIXMR almost 2 years
I also need to fix my shifter bushings. I couldn't get the little one to fit (bushing had too small of a hole) so I heated it in a toaster oven and then installed it very quickly before it cooled. Now I can't get it off without a torch.







it is high maintenance
