My '01 Evo 7 in Brooklyn, NY.

Hello Peeps. Im new here. My name is Kemal. Im 20 years old. About two months ago i purchased a 2001 Evo 7 with 9k kilometers on her. about 4000 miles. The car was imported from Japan by VIS for their show purposes. this was a trailered show car and im intending to daily it with some track days here and there. My view is a car is meant to be driven. so im going to enjoy it. The car came with a one-off molded widebody. 19 x 10.5 Volk GT-7's. one-off FULL carbon interior. Stock motor wise, besides a catback.

first thing is first. im going to buy a OEM evo 7 hood, and a OEM evo 7 front bumper.

Give me feedback

Nice find on picking up an Evo VII, but that widebody kit and front bumper have got to go!!! Those parts absolutely ruin that car. I cant decide what I hate more the fenders or the front bumper.

Welcome from a fellow VII owner in the USA. It's a shame it's missing the original VII bodywork, seats, and taillights. Stock VII seats are awesome and nothing like the stuff in America. Not feeling the body kit or wheels at all. At least you have the stock VII wing. Have more pics of the interior? It's not my taste but may have some good work in there from what i can see.
Was the hood custom made for the front bumper?
I'm curious what you purchased it for but i'm not one to ask ?'s like that.

im also really upset. but i couldnt let the deal fall. i can always find parts but not a car like this. ill try to get some pics soon. but im collecting parts together more to my liking. its almost IMPOSSIBLE to find an oem evo 7 front bumper.
I cant say a price because it was a great deal and i went through someone

More detailed pics of the interior would be nice. I'd imagine you'd be getting a whole lot of glare when driving that in the sunlight.

I'd pull the entire kit off the car, and just go OEM.

Seemed like they tried making it into a custom evo 5/6/7 mix. Here's a V for reference: http://images.autoexposure.co.uk/AET...2221283_1b.jpg
