Also, i think the dull tinted tail lights take away from how clean the car is.
thanks, yea i have had a evo 2 and thats when i become a little obsessed with them and i could not afford a newer evo so i stuck with the 4 and have now spent enough on it to buy an evo 10 haha. Yea i have been thinking about it but i would need to do the whole kit, back and front bumpuer, front guards, side skirts, then chop away at my rear guards. and to be honest i dont have a clue how to do it, thats why i have not already

So i decided i would paint paint my carpet as it was old and looked bad,

the way i did it was i took all the carpet out and got a bucket full of hot water with upholstery cleaner and scrubbed the sh** out of it and washed it down and let it dry in the sun, this was to try get all the dirt and crap that was in it. I then started applying coats of dupli-color vinyl and fabric paint after 2 coats i got a brush and lightly scrubbed the carpet this was to bring up all the fibers that have not got paint on them this allows you to get a better finish when constantly rubbing it with your feet.

I also got around to cutting up my alloy pipe and silicon bends to create my intake pipe

Car is heading off to speedfactor tomorrow to have the rest of the modifications done before installing the computer and going for its tune on the 19th of this month excited as the build is nearly done to the standard i was hoping to have it at.

Currently most the interior is back in and i will shoot some pics tonight, have a few more bits and pieces to get done before it leaves my garge for hopefully the last time till its pulling 500hp at the wheels like the intended plan was. I will be getting it hubb dynoed not on rollers so figures will be very accurate and i expect the number will be short of the figure but will realistically be pulling over 500hp atw on the road.

more pics soon and more information in about a week
