Evo 9 and Varis
My car has come a long way since I bought it new in 2006. It progressed from daily driver duties, to weekend fun/track toy. It's one of the best cars I've owned, and I can't ever see myself parting with it.
I had it completely detailed and finished with Opticlear (this stuff is fantastic!)


Got invited at a local car show, and brought home some recognition.

Very clean ride.....well done.
Never seen the Varis lip partially painted like that.
Is this the opticlear you speak of??

Thanks
Thanks for the comments. It's been a labor of love.
The wheels specs are RE30 18x9.5 +28.
The product is optimum opti-seal. It's a permanent sealant so you won't have to wax your car again. It adds a layer of clearcoat over the thin mitsu paint. Water just beads forever. I even had it done on the wheels and brake dust just come off with a garden hose. It's really good stuff. It requires paint correction and a really good prep before application since it is permanent. I had mine done at mintyourcar.com. Zeke is a detailer recommended by Optimum.
Good eye on the painted cf lip. I think it blends better with the front bumper. I still prefer the OEM Evo front to the Varis, so the lip was an easy choice. The top part of the spoiler is also painted cf.

Again, nicely done on your ride.
