My Voltex Widebodied, Yakima Rack'd, Daily Driven Evo

I've finally gone widebody and wanted to share with some of you on how the car looks currently.
Its been a year in the making. Its not completely finished yet, so there are still some small details to patch up.
This car is a legitimate daily driven car. I pick up groceries and I drive friends around in this. It was never intended to be a fast car - as if an Evo wasn't fast already for the street.
It was just what I wanted it to be: My ultimate daily driver.
The car is not sponsored or ever entered in a car show. So it goes without saying, I did it for my personal enjoyment.

Finally, all this wouldn't have been possible without my great local shops: DriveLine Motoring, JLB Motorsports, and M.O.B. Works!
Although J-OnDemand played some part in this, they still owe me money/parts.

Looks nice with no wing. Although it might look better with one. Pretty mean.

I would black out the hood grills though.

Thanks. That's one of the small things I plan to fix.

It's actually a 87 Accord... With 400k+ miles on it - stock motor and all. And it still runs.
