Makin' OEM look gooood.

Just picked this up last weekend for daily duty. Its impossible to keep my hands idle when i get a new car. so this is just the beginning.....

Remove 3 point lancer wing, and matte black the stockers.

add some gloss black logos for that "finished" look.


next, replace my awesome Megan racing gauges with STACK units. update to come.

Enkei made the worst wheels when they made Evo 8 stockers.


Powdercoating them just covers up the stock OEM look.
