Very nice. What is the total cost to do this if you don't mind me asking?

Don't mind the haters. I recognize a few of them from hating on Evoxforum. Com. I'm shocked you didn't know that Rik84 is the Evo god and you were supposed to get written permission from him for each mod you planned to do. Your wheels aren't rice. Rice is doing gaudy stuff to your car. And who cares it's YOUR car. You are lucky he didn't catch the fact that you were putting BC coils on the car. That's worse than being a pedophile to some of these holier than thou (yea rik84 I said it) guys.

Do what you like, which appears to be what your doing. Post some pix from the back showing the width of the tires.

And your spelling and grammar is understandable. These spelling/grammar freaks don't understand that the purpose of "language" is for people to communicate. Things don't have to be written perfect to understand somebody.

not sure about total cost since i did everything my self all the engine parts were about maby 10-12k plus wellding supplies etc... i am thinking i've spend about 33k in total thats including the car because i bought it from the auction back in 2009 for 14k and those coils are cheap *** so if they wont work will go for k3s

Nice the F1 rain light. I would love to do dual exhaust out the center. Same size 4" opening like the Ultimate Racing but come out right next to each other in the center. Maybe someday but I want to get the suspension all done then rebuild engine for 600hp then do a few fabrication things to make it a little different.

Well I hate calling people out. Just gets old. They claim they are trying to help, and some are but calling something rice is subjective, that's not helping that's hating. If they want to explain why they think product A is better than product B, I respect that but once they have explained it, they did all they could, whatever the person chooses it what they wanted. No reason to bash them because they didn't follow your suggestion.

We all have opinions on what makes an Evo nice. If we didn't they would all look the exact same and that would be boring showing up at meets. Bad enough everybody has WW at meets and my car looks like all the rest. Lol
