Racecar theme? What is super taikyu? If it's not a race car, don't dress it up like one.

I personally think its going to go more towards the race look. I my self am planning on the race look but done cleanly. For example my next mods are:

Varis CF Front lip
Varis Hood Painted
Varis CF Side Diffusers
Varis CF Rear Diffuser For JDM Evo IX rear bumper

Autopower Roll Bar (Race Series)

Bride Lowmax Seats

Clean look is definitely the best. M3this, Archiebabes, S2kStephen, Derek888, etc are a few of the members that have managed to keep the performance theme of the evo, but make it look good in the process. The evo is a difficult car to make look "clean" because it looks so wild and aggressive off the showroom floor.

I like both ways... the race look(if done correctly) is aggresive looking but very costly...where as the clean look is simple yet tastefull(again if done correctly)and prob cheeper

I like the clean look but I have a feeling the trend is going to go towards the full on race look

hard to understand you kill your actual look, but hey i am aware of whats coming up.maybe when you get the evo you are excited of everything beeing new and try to mod it clean way.after a while one gets used to the soft mods and may become addicted to the higher kick....
iam at the start right now,though.
anyone that goes straight to hardcore race look from the showroom?thats like burning money.who knows, that may be the best way, financially.
anyone daring to go widebody rear etc.?
