Finally got my IX MR back

New pics of the EVO with the new parts... new front bumper, ralliart lip, intercooler, chargespeed carbon trunk, HKS carbon ti, freshly painted rear bumper with license plate bracket reinstalled correctly, a better alignment, and a new set of RT-615's

mods are: Ralliart CF lip, Seibon CF hood, Chargespeeed CF trunk, Black painted roof/vg, JDM EVO IX rear, Black UK trunk badge, K&N drop in filter, HKS Carbon Ti exhaust, Buddy Club Racing Spec Coilovers, tinted windows









and a pic of the caddy DTS i rented for the day (and got airborne on westheimer...it's okay, i bought the insurance) to drive around Houston until the EVO was ready.

its carbon with thin fiberglass shell. the fitment is perfect, and so is the weave. it's beautiful 1x1 weave just like the ralliart carbon lip, and the carbon on our wings. it makes my seibon hood look like ****. it will be for sale soon to help pay for a chargespeed OEM hood.

i've got my old seibon CF trunk with custom painted black UK "EVOLUTION IX MR" badge for sale. it was also professionally clear coated before it was put on the car. i'm selling it for $450 + shipping

i've also got an HKS Carbon Ti catback for sale for $580 shipped, and my stock IX MR full suspension (still fully assembled and ready to bolt up, boxed up ready to ship) with less than 2k miles on it for $700 shipped

Thanks for the info... Nice looking ride, very similar to how mine is setup at the moment.. but I might be changing my hood(seibon) to charge speed... its starting to warp..due to the extreme heat coming from my turbo manifolds...=(

The 255/40-17s are even better than the stock size - would look better, too.
