Bought it from Ross Sport UK through DSG Performance last year just before they discontinued it.

May I ask whether you use low spring or coil over for your suspension? Thanks.
Your car is looking good!

My Evo is parked outside under a few inches of snow, ice and slush. I looked at it from my house window.

I cleaned/claybared the whole car in the process cleaned the edge of my 3M clear bra on the hood.

Everyone will tell you doing part of the hood will leave a dirty line, but this looks good to me. Installed exactly a year ago. Survived the crappy north east winter we just went through, including that blizzard at the start of January. Thumbs up from this guy, no yellowing yet.

Put sound deadening material on the door, only one so far though. I have the cutout pattern saved so second door should go easier.

Put a good amount of butyl material on the inside to take care of vibration from the flat outside panel. There is a good amount of space inside once you remove the two black cover pieces so you can cover almost the whole door.

I made a complete abortion of reattaching the weather sealing. Directions said to attach immediately. Probably better to wait an hour or so for it to get tacky, that way it stays more as a bead, like the OEM stuff. This Permatex stuff is so nasty, ugh.

Then it was on to installing the mass loaded vinyl. This is the layer that blocks out actual noise. You can see it laying on top of the door. This is Second Skin Audio Luxury Liner Pro, it comes with like a quarter inch foam layer to prevent rattles. You can see I removed some of it here (the dark areas) for fitment, butI had to cut away all of it cause it just didn't fit between the door card and door. The clips either didn't reach or came out easily. I'll be buying the non Pro stuff without the foam. I might get the foam separately, which is only 1/8".

Final fitting before the door went back on. I used 3M double sided tape in a few spots to keep the layer up, but it will be held up by the speaker cutout, the door handle mount in the upper right corner, and the clip mounts. So it should stay up easily.
