Low buck mods over the winter

NH winters are just too fricken' long ......at least I have an EVO to Mod! ......the following are some pics of some of the things I did to my ride over the winter months:

New Stuff:
Greddy Front Strut Brace
Cusco Rear Strut Brace
Custom Powder coated end links for strut braces and radiator bracket
Samco Sport hoses for Radiator
ARC Exhaust manfold heat sheild
Ralliart Radiator Shroud
Ralliart Oil filler Cap
Custom made grounding kit
Titek CF Hood lifts
Blitz Induction cover + filter
Blitz 1.3 Bar Radiator cap
Rally Armor mud guards
JDM Shorty Antenna

I know these are minor mods, but I am just getting going with this car - its basically stock otherwise - what do you think?

the install very easy.....I found that the wheels had to come off to do the job right though.

I like the black ones too......I had a weak moment and went for the grey!

I hope they stop all the rock dings on my doors and side view mirrors!

That scoop does help put cool air into the car. Picked up 1-2mph a few summers ago when I was at the drag strip.

Heck - just paint it red to fit in

not trying to hate, but if you have more time and money left over, you should do some mods that do more than just look good, and are going to improve performance next

Looking good! What did you use to outline the holes you made in the lining of the boot for the rear brace?

That's the same reason I got mines. Plus, I'm getting a detail by Mitchubishi this Sat. and want to keep the car as clean as possible.
