I feel like I've seen pics of this car on this site before. If I remember correctly they were skyline bridge shots with NYC in the background. Really nice shots if I'm remembering right.

i know where you got this car from.. it was ed's car from wilkes barre, I would check the turbo manifold to see if it was fixed, i know he was running awhile on a cracked manifold... I would ditch the ebay ings kit, the nitrous spray and the audio..

Anything fall off the car at highway speeds?

This is the exact opposite of the word "clean." You will probably spend more getting body panels back to stock than you will get for the parts on that car.

Please return this to stock.. atleast on the outside and get some 17 or 18 inch wheels.

The trunk setup adds extra weight and I don't see the point of it.

Hopefully the engine and drivetrain isnt as abused as the exterior of it..

^^thats all my opinion but you do what you want, its your car.

Good luck with it and Hope you enjoy it.

Agreed, it just feels like there is too much going on here...

Agree with everyone else about the body kit and extra wieght... but any evo is better than a cobalt. imo. have fun with it. There is a wealth of knowledge on here.

Its easy to get excited about all the upgrades done to this Evo, But from long term car value stand point, stock has always retained more value. I would definitely take off all aftermarket upgrades and sell them and use that money to put on stock bumpers and side skirts, Definitely would lose that subwoofer setup you have and go with WickedCas.com subwoofer enclosure. it has a stock look and you still got your trunk with a spare tire. Anyway, for what its worth have with your evo man! defintiely needs a stock trunk lid and hood as well. You will probably make money selling all this aftermarket stuff
