lol, that fake evo looks pretty damn close to the real thing man!!
i've seen a toyota corolla fooled me so bad i really thought it was a M3 for a second in taichung, haha
and i've seen dozens of fake evos in taichung, just about everyday, when i went back last time

Why would he not put a FMIC on after all the money he spent to make it look like a evo 
Just cause theres a fmic mounted doesnt mean its functional. I remember asking him how much he spent and the total was 10K US for parts and labor. Brand new Evo 8's cost 53K US dollars in this country and a Lancer goes for about 15K brand new. So total he spent around 25K which is my guess unless he bought the car used.
Only sixty legal Evo 8's in this country and they are rare as hell so I can understand why he spent that kind of money. 10K isnt bad if you think about it...not something I would do but he does look happy driving it

Evo 4: $50k
Evo 5: $55k
Evo 6: $60k
Evo 7: $65k
Evo 8: $70k
Evo 9: $80k
Notice a trend here?
. That guy still did a lot of work though. Kudos to him would have tricked me easy 
. On the IC thing, I know people at home that do the same thing...we call them "interfoolers" .
thats def an evo, because anyone doing the conversion would never buy 2 new rear 1/4 panels and have them welded on to achieve the look. If anything they would convert the whole front end, etc... It must be a different guy you spoke to. I cant believe someone who cut off their rear 1/4 panels, weld on new ones and have basically the whole car repainted.
And also add a rear wiper? thats just silly little details that people dont do

Well I guess the only way to solve this issue is to track him down and get an engine shot derek . I would say though if he was dedicated he could have done it...look around on the net for the NSX->F50 conversion that one guy did...
