I am for sure fixing it my self, so thats not the question. I am just not 100% sure if I want to lose it as a daily driver.

It depends on how far you want to go but if you decide to track it, you can still use it as a DD.

I suggest a DD though. It so much fun getting in the Evo after driving the daily to and from work all week.

I drive it about 60 miles a day to and from work and have 2 kids to put in the back seat, so it is either track this or dd it. There isn't much in between.

If you have the cash available for another dd, then track it?
At the end of the day the decisions yours, you can still track it and keep the back seats and use it everyday?...

I should hear something from the insurance company by Wednesday. I think I am going to stick with the oem 8 bumpers (carbon ducts and lip),and go carbon hood, roof, and trunk.....I still can't decide what to do about doors. Somebody has to know where I can find a price on the fiberglass doors.

I read that the fiberglass doors are lighter, cheaper, and a better quality than the carbon ones somewhere on this website, but he didn't list prices.
