Talking One Day car mod! from stock

so ive had my evo for a bit now and left it 100% stock. getting parts here and there. i decided to mod the car once i got back to AZ. so i heard cars and coffie show was on and decided to put all my mods on the day before i thought it would be rally cool to do it all in one day. it was not too much fun but with the help of one friend i got it all done and had time to wax it in time for the show

so heres a pic of my car at about 8:00AM (day before C&C)




It was dark when we finished so i decided to take the after pics the next morn at C&C.






my ONE DAY mod list;

18" Gram Lights 57Optimise
Rays lock lugs
ARC induction box
ingalls stiffy torque damper
Rexpeed Apex VG
OEM evo 9 taillights
HomeDepot frunt lip
HKS RS Coilovers W/pillow upper
unknown japanese downpipe
3" perrin HF cat
3" Greddy Catback

That is wicked! I like to do that too, just wait for a bit till you have a couple parts saved up then dump them on, looks much more rewarding

Looks very good and koodo's on the HD front lip!

you spent some baller status money on mods but sorta went ghetto on the lip...check ebay and you can get a poly lip for around $100...the home depot lip makes the car look cheap...

i was thinking about it but i wouldnt put a poly on my car it would have to be CF and then i still think they are too big, i like how small it looks, and ive already scaped my lip if it was a CF lip i would have lost $300 the first day. the HD lip will never break and also protects my bumper from scrapes and im gonna need it cuz im gonna get even lower

Could've saved some $$$ and some in-car vibration by getting a blox engine roll stopper and some buschur shifter cable bushings. I had the Ingalls torque dampener on another car of mine, it just transfered way too much vibration.
