Thumbs down What genius decided to do that!?

I swear! it just gets worse and worse! I was in Jacksonville, NC going down Piney Green and what do I see sitting outside of HP Imports? a frickin sky blue 99 or 2000 accord with an EVO VIII wing on the back! I thought I was seeing things until I stopped and looked on the way back and sure enough it was an accord with and EVO VIII wing? Anybody know who this genius is? If they didn't have that fence up ther I woulda went back that night and cut that joint off and had me a nice wing! But damm, on a Honda Accord of all things!!! What has happened to that town man? Prolly some young Marine! That just ain't right, I'm sorry!

Driving home today I saw a newer Yellow Celica (Didnt even know they were made in yellow) with a off color body kit and a wing. When I went up close to it, it was a Evo VIII wing, I would've said something to the owner, but I decided against it, he probably gets enough crap on the streets

what't the big deal? it's a compliment that our stock body is their aftermarket part.

I don't see a problem with it.

Celicas had that wing long before the EVO was in the US.

I spotted a red Mirage in my area with an Evo shaped wing on the back. The CF part was white though and it looked retarded.

+1 it's not an evo wing on a celica, it's a celca wing that looks a LOT like an evo wing.

Someone forgot to take their riddlin this morning... It's not that bad that someone admires our cars so much that they spend rediculous amounts of money to try and transform their cars. I just mean its not the end of the world.

I have seen far more EVO-style hoods on civics, mustang, accord, and etc. Who cares. I am glad they want to be like us. They know who their Daddies are.

People have been doing that long before most people even heard of an EVO.
