That thing looks good like it is. I've been considering getting a Evo8 with no sunroof and no wing. Looks like that might be a keeper but with Evo7 tail lights instead of the 8s.

Im thinking about taking off the wing, but using the plug method, I can put it back on when I went. Im only doing it for fear of people stealing it and to get some cars to stop tailgating me or tempting me to race when they see the car with the wing on. I cant afford a ticket since my insurance is probably more expensive that any of you guys. I like the wing on, but with the wing off, it still looks good, like a sleeper sedan especially with the jdm VII tails and shaved emblems. However its not much of a sleeper with the rims and IC exposed.

Get the intercooler anodized black. That should cut down on some of the problems. Theres no way to get around the brakes though. Maybe badge the car as a regular Lancer?

I'm looking for a regular lancer non-winged trunk lid in PA/DE/NJ area. If anyone has a source for them, I'd appreciate the tip.

Dunno if even I would go this far - but there's your answer.

Or if you want to keep the Brembo Logo and have extra money, you can swap out for black calipers such as these:


Alternatively, you can go to a few track events the turn the red calipers into a dark maroon by using them real hard and then not washing the brake dust off
