Where'd you get the front Red Mitsubishi emblem??

i cut it out. you can do it its so easy. Get a 3M vinyl and one ultra sharp blade. cut out one square, witch is covers one diamond.
Wash the mitshu sign with rubbing alcohol and put the stickers on it.
Then push the sides down so you can see the shape of the diamond.
and start cutting from inside to out side .Dont push the blade too much down so you will not cut the paint.
and repeat it untill you done.
Let the diamond shape drive your blade. Bealive me once you get it ,to do that takes 10 minutes . And always you can replace it, if its got damaged.Rocks etc.
And it will cost you less then $5.

Why are his wheels "horrible"? Maybe they're not your taste, but horrible?

i was going to say that maybe horrible was too strong of a word just based on looks, but now that it's revealed that they weigh 25lbs each, horrible stands.

and what's with the pins on a stock hood?

with tires...
when i did weight them, they was around 2.5 pound heavyer then the stock 8 rims + tires.

Enkei OR 52 18-8.5/35 $150 each
Toyo T1R 245-18/40 $175 each

i dont think is that horrible. Specially when the whole set up cost around $ 1300...
but that is all about taste.
