needs some patience. it requires to remove the bumper and lower tray. lower tray is pain in the but to take it out but mine was already out . so to paint these things took my 3 hours of total, including 20 minutes bake and 10 minutes re-bake after painting them to to soften the seal ( each ).

i think its 3/10

I'm lovin it, I think it looks great and it's definitely something different that makes the car stand out. I've been wanting a set of those wheels for a while now too, very nice choice and good job making your evo not look like everyone elses.

Props to you for doing something different! Forget all the haters. How do you think the black trend was started in the first place?

I think it looks pretty good man! I also think you should get more pictures up, maybe with a few shots of a little further away to see the whole car. Also, very nice wheels; I think I may try to pick up a set of those eventually hahaha

just an example og someone who buys parts someone else made and calls them custom^.why dont you go f-off.Its not your car.Why is he an idiot oh mighty dictator?You really call someone that for doing something you dont approve of?lets see your car.probably on the bandwagon buying gay parts just because they are "jdm".

i think it looks great and different.If you like it,thats all that matters

I think it would've looked a lot better contrasted on a WW. Still unique, as long as you like it.

Too much contrast IMO. Shouldve went with Magenta. A softer, more mature color imo
