JDM rear bumper with the carbon lip is very mild and very tasteful in my opinion. I like that look. Most of the body kits sold for Evo's look horrendous in my opinion. Like a Japanese cartoon character or something. The Chargespeed kit is aggressive without being tacky IMO. Just my taste, and certainly other's taste may differ. For me, I don't want my car LOOKING like a time attack car unless it IS a time attack car and most of the body kits and wings look straight out of the original fast and the furious movie to me. As I said, certainly everyone has different taste, but to me it looks like an abortion.

The valve cover was drilled and tapped for AN fittings.

Everyone has their own taste, although some presented less tactfully than others as evidence by this post. To me, wingless turds with carbon fiber everywhere look disgusting, but I didn't tell you to strap a snow plow on your Evo next time to do something constructive next time you playing in the snow with it.....opps, I think I just did. Recognized a $100,000+ build son.

Pwned, but yeah...respect to the nice build and many pretty pennies that it took to get it where it's at.

P.S. That's over 10 million pennies, lol.

He did. I tore it apart and replaced everything but the body kit, trans, transfer case, and rims. That's pretty much ALL that still remains on it from when I got it. Everything else was changed, upgraded, or freshened up.

For a min I thought I was at supraforums for the jealous childish posts. Bring out that Z06 to a highway in Vegas, I own six cars that would like to give a nice spanking.

that wasn't a jealous, childish post... it was a factual statement.
spending over $100k on a $30k car is a waste of money.

not worried about those six cars you think would kill my z06 since you refuse to take any of them to the track
