Big booty mod/street sweeper

I was bored this weekend and decided that the rear bumper was not quite strong after removing the rear fender liners and bolts in the wheel well, so I made some brackets. I also decided that it would look cool if I pulled in the rear bumper to give it a nice rear stance.

I am also broke due to building the car up last month, power wise, but wanted a nice aggressive front end look. So i painted the headlight housings and made this lip, no it is not garage seal, it is hard plastic.

Heres some pics

I dig it! Makes the rear look pretty aggressive (which I'm sure was the point). If I didnt own a EB evo BBY would be my next choice.

I like the way it looks after you removed the mesh in the lower/center part of the bumper.ic looks cleaner.

Can i take a guess at what you drove before the evo? A civic?

All kidding aside you posted so im going to give my opinion. I dont like it. Something looks wrong almost like a regular lancer now. The evos are meant to have a wide aggresive look. I also dont like the dual tip. Looks like it belongs on a 240 thats in a drift competition. Im not even going to comment on the lip. Ive seen better looking ones made from garage door liners from lowes on hella flushed civics. But my opinion shouldnt matter to you since its your car. I do give you props for making it unique and your own.

Nah I drove a GG Evo 9, and then an Audi. I will never own a honda, but I see you use to own one so your opinion means nothing but thanks for taking the time to type all that.

He is entitled to his opinion. You post it so you ask for it.

It is not weather stripping, it is hard plasitc I found at lowes. I am going to try and fill them and paint the lip matte black shortly but it is not the useless mod of the garage seal. This lip is actually hard plastic, and its only $5 so i dont care about scraping it and such. Looks badass in person
