Got some wheels and coilovers and swapped to an 8 front bumper


1st changes to the bay


Went wingless, ( g/f's new evo X se in background)

Why the switch to the 8 bumper. 9 bumper looks way beter (and yes I'm biased)

I actually wrote a whole thread about this on my car. It's a little lengthy but check it out if you have time.

https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...11s-story.html

Here's a quick before and after pic. I don't have a lot of exterior mods so far but I've got a CF vortex generator that's going on in the spring.

Before- Ran 15.0 my first time at the track


Current: The only exterior mods are the JDM sidemarkers, JDM tails, shorty antenna, and I recleared the wing but it's hard to tell in this pic. I need some wheels bad but it'll prolly be a while for those.

Last time at the track I went 12.52- The only significant change in mods is I went from a stock 8 turbo to a 9 turbo. The rest of the 2.5 second improvement came from maintenance and tuning.

I wanted the big opening for a front mount. I have since switched back to a 9 bumper again.

I'm going to assume they are from this buy... and are similar specs to this..
18x9.5 5x114.3 +28 front (45mm lip), 18x9.5 5x114.3 +26 rear (70mm lip)
https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...available.html

Regardless they look MINT!
That is correct VS-TX's.

Size: 18x9.5 5x114.3 +28 front (45mm lip), 18x9.5 5x114.3 +26 rear (70mm lip)

I cut the rear fenders and I have wider front fenders but, stock body up front is fine.

Some of the parts on the outside came on the car, so I had to change it up to how I wanted it.
