If you dont have the money , dont do it, too much black. leave it like it is. black overlays look good on black evo's, how about red ones?

If anything i think some XI Tails would look sweet. JDM MR is expensive, but the black overlay put to much black into the rear end... See if you can find some pics with the same setup but XI tails. Thats what i would do.

keep taillights like they are, keep the wing on (wingless ftl ), and then just save up for the MR Taillights.

btw, i like the rims, what kind are they? and did they come in black or did you paint them?

It doesn't look horrible but I don't think they will be nearly as black as the photoshop. I would also be worried about not being bright enough back there (IMO the Evo taillights aren't that bright to begin with). The black definitely goes with your overall theme.

I think the wheels look fine in the pics (very dark, so hard to tell) but what is up with the hood? Is that also due to the camera?
