My car got featured on Stance Nation.

**EDITED
I have had this car for merely three months, there were so many things to do in the past three months to turn this car from stock looks to now.

Let me tell y'all this, I work on my own car including fender rolling/pulling/trimming, reverse mounted the rims/polishing. All the works are very time consuming since nobody has done this before, and all the ppl have NICE aggressive fitments wouldn't share their specs (that's fine, i guess i'll follow the trend here in evom), so IN THE PAST THREE MONTHS I ended up adjusting my ride height at least 20 times, fender rolled 4 times, pulled twice, trimed the rear bumper three times, went through couple of sets of brand new tires in different sizes, went to custom alignments for three times, so I can finally get them fitted without rubbing issue while maintain the stance.

There are few ppl keep talking this car must handles like a crap, I have to say it does not handles very good on very bumpy pavement. That being said, I have a different track setup at home for me to enjoy the functional side of my car at the track days. I don't see how it lose its purpose since I drive my evo like a normal car just like everyone else on the street, and i can still have fun at the track days. (Road course that actually have turns)

This is Evo Show & Shine section, if you don't like it, don't post. If you don't know how to appreciate other's hard works, then you will not earn no respect from others.

Peace

I can appreciate the nice wheels and time to get them to fit, but those tires are way too skinny.

yea, i know. but i had to use this size, anything bigger than this won't fit into my fenders/bumpers. I drive slow everyday, so traction is not my concern on daily basis. I have track setup as well so i can enjoy the functional side of my car.

thanks. The reasons why i picked the small fairing are: 1. big fairing will make my car looks "tall" from the front view and it's like everyone else. I don't even use this rack during the summer time, so the fairing is not functional, too. 2. If you look close enough, you will see there is a camera mounts on the driver side of the rack. I use that with my gopro to shoot video. This balance the looks with gopro camera mounting on it.
