modified stock evo8 bumper fascia

I got a buddy of mine to eliminate the hideous portion of the bumper fascia on my evo. I think it looks quite nifty.

I used high quality gutter gaurd to cover the hole left by the absence of the nastiness and also to make it look more blacked out. I also painted the intercooler core black for less blingy.

As much as people say it looks bad I think it looks better with it. Unless it's on a body kit. Just my 2 cents.

I think it would look more aggressive with fmic visible, the front end with the stock fmic make the front look like an evil smile with two fangs. does anyone else notice that or is it just me?

I like it but i think you should've left the FMIC the way it was. I'm also interested in how you did it.
