My car

hi guys, have no idea if this is in the right secton or not but thought id show you my car from over her in the U.K, would like some ideas please. Gonna leave the original spoiler off and am thinking about the rexpeed spoiler that goes along just the edge or the one that covers the fq spoiler holes and then goes across what do you think? car is gonna be used for fast road and track ( family car as well)









here is the link to show when i first bought the car through to how she is now. she will be lowered soon, but trying to think what look would suit her.

Reminds me of my Evo when i first got here. Good start off tho, but i'm not feeling the washers hood prop. You already have a hole in the hood leave that mod for the honda boys lol.

lol cheers guys, she is a promo girl for my mates mag over here, www.totally-modified.co.uk

ive been thinking of a respray or just carbon wrap the boot ( trunk ) and bonnet ( hood) for the time being and just lower and tune her to some silly power. the thing with me is i like the show car look but with power. what do you think is the best way to describe the U.S style?

The big decal on the boot seems to be a little "loud" by U.K standard, isn't it?

I would maybe just put the website.

I am also not a fan of the spoiler, but its not my car.

By the way, which part of England do you live?

I used to live in West Midland, not many evos where I lived.

if its on a full circuit put the wing back, you will definitely get better lap times around the twisties. if drag wingless.

lol i was talking about the car luis lmao

the car is to be a bit of everything, show, odd track days rather than drag, like i said looking at the rexpeed spoiler that is just along the back of the trunk.

i live in hertfordshire kiadaw

been looking at a few of the cars on here and they are lovely, might have to go all out as a track look now im starting to put stickers on but still leave interior in for family use.

plan could be

respray, lower on tein springs ( for time being ) 9x18" or 9.5x18" volk racing ce28n alloys in black with red lip, graphics down the side, carbon rear boot spoiler, +10mm front fenders, evo 9 rear bumper, rexpeed extensions, and tune the engine? that should take me a few years to get done.

is there a section where you can look at just evo 8s or evo 9 on here?

If I may, the car would look a lot better with polished paint. Stop by detailingworld.co.uk and find someone in your area. Plenty of qualified folks there.

i agree about the tail lights, either a set of red evo 7 lights or U.S black lights with the clear indicators but at mo dont have funds to buy a set, family holiday and other things to pay out.

its strange how you guys dont like the lifted bonnet? i thought you would. but its cool im taking all your ideas and processing them to make my car better so thank you. what turbo kit do you guys recommend? im thinking of aiming for around 600bhp at the flywheel, 600whp would be nuts lol

Something seems very "non-Evoish" about your car.

non english? what do you mean?

do you mean cause the spoiler is off, and the trunk is smooth? i plan on removing the trunk lock to smooth it out even more then a carbon wrap i think.
