Thanks to all for the responses, good or bad.

I don't agree with the RICE statements, but that's all good.

The morgage payment, 2nd car payment and caring for the wife and 2 kids doesn't allow me to move as quickly with my mods as I want. I haven't found rims that I REALLY want, and I'm not shelling out the $$$ for rims that I'm not feeling.

It's a daily driver and that includes the kids...

Just doing something unique, different, crappy to some, neat to others, it's all gravy.

I just wanted to post so next newbie who posts a question "Evo with lambos?" get the standard answer: SEARCH! LOL

Many mods to come...

Regards...

The turbo mostly just sounds "COOL" with the intake. I scare the sh** out of people daily...

Can't go crazy with the engine, it's not my racecar and I've got a family to support.

the evo has been turned from a purpose built rally/race car into a show car for ricers to play with, first with all the BOV comments to this now

I do believe that this "lambo" kit does have form AND function.
I suggest you all stop the hating...to each their own. I'm sure the first person who put a turbo on a Civic was made fun of by V8 drivers. If you don't like it that's your perogotive but it doesn't mean it's not worth doing.

BTW...I like the look but it would be nice if the doors went straight up so that you had the clearance to get in and out. Good job though.

lol, google "spoiler white papers" I think mitsubishi may have a white paper about the effects of downforce from the wing. It actually does have function, believe it or not.

As for the lambo doors... what is their function? The normal doors work just fine, in fact the normal doors probably open easier and are easier to get out of.

I don't think lambo doors an evo is an original idea at all, just because it's never been done on an evo before doesn't make it creative...People just get these to scam extra points at shows...and come on did you forget the evo is a 4-door, lambo doors are lame to begin with but if youre gonna slap them on it should be a 2-door. I honestly can't even begin to understand why this would be among your 1st mods..I'm hoping you got them for free or something

"the evo has been turned from a purpose built rally/race car into a show car for ricers to play with"

Ricer's play with $30K cars? SWEET...what stereotype level is next? chow mein or maybe Moo Shoo Pork ? Can't wait until i grow up... Do V8 owners get names like HOT DOGS or TBONE STEAK? Seriously...

The Evo wasn't brought to the US for the average American to rally/race...

For the record, my wife and I don't have any problem getting in or out of the doors. Easy as pie.

I didn't say it was an original idea. I know for a fact it's been done. People do things they like, that's all.

I know some will hate and some will like, that's part of LIFE, just thought I'd put it out there. To each his own...

Im sorry dude. but that looks horrible imo! I laughed when i read that v8 guys called civics ricers because they put turbos on. turbos actually served a purpose and made the car go faster giving it more respect to others.This was done for cosmetic reasons which serve no purpose in makeing the car perform any better, the stock hinges worked better and allowed to leave or enter the car alot easier than these do. I never liked lambo doors on any car (besides the lambo). but to each his own.
