"EVOLUTION" on valve cover

Anyone notice how the Jap spec Evos have "EVOLUTION" spelled out on the valve cover? I wonder why our cars don't have this? No big deal to me, just curious, thats all.....

I've only seen 1 or 2 sold on Ebay. So you really have to keep an eye out.

Nice...but not for $250. Wish it was more like $100...then I'd definately think about it.
