Quick pics with the evo 9 emblem on..




Still waiting for this crumby weather to be gone so I can wash/take some non-cell phone pics.

because of this evo 8 and the new look you made on it, it would convince me to get the evo 8 and this would be the first thing to change. Nice work!

Agreed! Glad I didn't spend the money on the 9 front bumper.

Glad you like it! 8's are a lot cheaper than 9's. If you don't care about variable valve timing or ACD, then 8 all the way! Pick up some 9 seats/chop the nose and call it a day like I did

To be honest doing it with plastic is probably the correct way to do it, I just wanted to try working with fiberglass to learn something new..either way will work though
