Winter Mode!

Well, after the little bit of snow that we got yesterday, i decided its time to put the EVO into winter mode before i get stuck in snow im not expecting! Afterall, it IS New England

So this is what my winter mode will consist of!

-Enkei's wraped in blizzaks [painted by me]

-Old mangled SE front lip that got ripped apart last winter, put on with nuts and bolts because the clips ripped off after a chunk of ice fell from a truck i was following during a snowstorm

-Rubber floor mats

-And i havent decided wether i want wingless or not??? input is appreciated!


Time for pics!









Let me know what you think!

As much as i hate the winter, I love it at the same time. I really dont mind it, its fun to drive around and it always good for a change! Although i would like to never have to worry about crappy weather, or what the winters around here do to your car

Glad most of you like it! shes a work in progress!

Go wingless...don't have to worry about clearing snow off of wing or have any visibility issues. Otherwise good looking Evo
