I talked to safelite and told them i have a evo and not a lancer and they told me they have the same windshield so i don't think they can get evo windshield it's just that a lancer windshield will fit on a evo. I would love a brand new one but i really can't afford it right this minute and i got til the 28th to get one installed cause that is when i got to show up to court and show the cop i got a new one on so then he can throw away the ticket i got a while back.

Only place you're going to get an authentic Evo windshield is from Mitsu. I went this route once and it was about $425 just for the glass and this was years ago. The lancer windshield I have now was about $250 installed. Both windshields look the same.
