Talking My Evo and front yard car lift

Hey, first time I've posted but I've been here a while.
Got my Evo from Penns. earlier this year.

This is how the car looked when I first got it.

I'm throwing around the idea of color changing the outside bits to Electric blue and leaving the inner bits BBY. Not sure about that one yet

Awesome wheels from the past owner Glad you took over the Evo. Nice lift Wish I had that in my apartment's front yard. Maybe someday when I have my own place.

Thanks about he rims, took way to much time to get them sorted out.

And yeah, rims were the first thing I wanted gone but could not get rid of.
  • 20 in Falkens
  • Rubbed everything
  • Chrome inside actually began deflating the rubber via chipping
  • Needless to say - they sucked bad

I got lucky having a dad who was in the right place at the right time to snag the lift. (makes oil changes painless and quick)

Thanks, and the tail lights have been blacked out already, with more proper blacking out to be done front and back by evodave when he replies back.

Thanks, but honestly the pictures are deceiving because what you see there is pretty much all that is good on the car. There have been a lot of fixes I've had to make.

And I've just hit 80,000
