I hate when someone buys a perfectly good evo, then they throw a big wing on it, rice it out with stickers, and it spends most of it's life in a parking lot....

just make up for it by going through a drive through and ordering milkshakes and have them put them on the wing and drive away.

Alignment is done. Basically it took me 5 hours 7-12, had to spend alot of time string boxing the car myself, it is hard to measure just right by yourself. Front is perfect 2.5 camber back is .9 camber, close enough. 0 tow all around. This time I torqued all rear alignment bolts to specified 69 lbs. So its done, just need to take for a test ride real quick in the morning, then remove everything and deliver to Maaco.
I would take it out tonight, but no need to upset my wife tonight, can just do it in the AM.

So Matte Silver tomorrow!

Questions for all yous:
Should I leave my 2 spoiler carbon fiber - black or just paint them to match car. Leaning toward matching them to car color, but black would probably break up the color nice. I am going to run stock BBS painted gloss black. They actually look pretty good right now, prolly from the lack of use.

Fineberg, I'd color match the spoiler. It would look a lot better.

I can't believe you're going to get your car painted at MAACO.

*fingers crossed for you*
