Does Vivid even sell that lip anymore? Last time I looked for it, I couldn't find it.

cf lip and cf hood, that's all you need IMO as far as body enhancements go.

I know.. this is weird.. I guess majority of the owners are satisfied w/ the stock look.. thats cool i guess..but I want mine to seperate itself from the alikes.

FRP= fiber reinforced plastic aka fiberglass

PU= Polyurethane

The lip MYEVOVIII posted is acceptable. Anything more drastic will get a definate thumbs down from me, but that is just my opinion....

Oh, BTW, in case you didn't realize this; The best way to enhance the looks of your car is some nice wheels. Stay away from big sizes and lots of chrome and you will have a awesome car.

Right now costs are not in favor of lip spoilers + a full bumper replacememt will rid us of the ugly grill triangle.

Too bad no-one offers an Evo 7-look kit for the Evo. There are a couple that look nice, but aftermarket choices are very limited. Which is patently bizarre because the WRX, S2000 and 350Z (among others) have tons of choices. If I had to suggest a relatively 'mature' look, perhaps HKS Kansai.

I voted for the whole bumper. I don't like the centerpiece.

i voted for the aftermarket bumper. not that a lip spoiler won't look good either, i'm just feeling the monster sport hood, bumper ,and side spats right now.

the stock EVO bumper is agressive enough for 75% of the owners

a CF lip for less than 400 will appease most of us here...
