Winterized

Thanksgiving marks the transformation from summer to winter setups for me. Took a few pics.

Summer setup:


Ugly purple rear tint finally removed!




Swapping it up:












Why not change the oil while I'm under there?


Gotta remove the carbon fiber lip as well. Here's the damage from one season's use:




It was dark by the time I was finishing up, but it looks like a stock BBY dropped on Tanabe GF-210s. And yes, I'm very aware she's in dire need of a bath. It didn't even reach freezing today, so the wash/wax will have to wait.

Newer stock wheels-to older stock wheels FTW. Nice car mang! That lip took a beating if I do say so myself.

Ahhhhh Mass winters in the EVO. I feel you man. Car looks great and will certainly be fun with a fresh coating of snow on the ground.

Looks like there's something wrong with your exhaust! There's heatshields stuck on it or something weird! Do you just swap out the CF lip for the stock one during winter months?

Nice. You couldn't just spend 20 bucks and buy an oil pan? You had to steal your moms turkey roast pan?

I need to take off my rims as well and put on the stockers. Hoping the civic can make it through the winter without pulling the evo out the garage.
