And I dunno Josh, I'm gonna look when I go, probably uh "flat" metallic. But we'll see, I dunno when I'm even ever gonna do it. The tire shop has to clean out their storage garage sometime so I can put my car there for the few days. Plus I wanna get my tattoo done, so it depends on how much that costs.
I like the flat metallic look, thats what i'm going to get done if they have it there. Hopefully I can get mine done next week, I've just been waiting for this semester to end so I could get some time to drive to Ogden.

I think I'm gonna create a topic in Evo General and ask what other people would think if they randomly found a post-it (done a little nicer than that scrap of a MILO sticker, of course) on their car... I was paranoid I'd walk out, find it stuck to my door with key marks all around my car

Our post-its are a great idea, but I'd prefer to avoid harm to myself and my car.

Speaking of which, I also saw a black California plate Evo turn into the Bayou yesterday before I went to the Gateway... I thought about following him into the lot and talking to him, but I didn't want to get shot (because, all Californians shoot people, of course)
In evo general you'll just get all the douches saying how stupid and blah blah blah, cuz they're DOM. Oh and I've seen that evo in Orem, I waved and he waved back, and didn't get shot at either Jake!

EPIC! Hey I have a powdercoating question. I am probably buying a set of 5Zigen FN01R-C that are 18x9.5 that are polished. Can they powdercoat the entire wheel except for the lip? I want flat black with a polish () lip.

I want some wheels powder coated. I need to get around to taking them up there to get them done.

I will be at GT LIVE for sure I will have one maybe both of my cars there, if they are done both ready by then.

Sweet!!!!!

Now another question for anyone who can answer. Being that they are 18x9.5's and I have Tein S-Tech springs (-2" front, -1" rear), am I going to have to roll the rear fenders? I really hope not, but...

With as low as your car is I would have to say yes, but I could be wrong

ok guys so I was out driving on sunday and the road was empty so i decided to try launching the evo for the first time. So after i launch and go through the gears i can smell what smells like burnt rubber. So I figure its the tires because I still have my snow tires on so i assumed they slipped a little. But I could still smell it like 5 minutes later, I pull over and the smell is coming from under the hood. I figure ok maybe its the belts. From what I can see the belt still looks good, I get back in and drive home. I park in the garage and can still smell it ten minutes later but now I can't smell it inside the car. Well its two days later and i can still smell it when I pop the hood, it smells like its comming from the exhaust manifold area. I thought it could have been my radiator hose but now I don't think it is. The smell is a lot stronger right over the exhaust manifold. Any ideas of what it could be? Any help would be just great!

Your sure its not the clutch. Can you get under the car to see if a plastic bag or something is on the exhaust. How many miles on da car? Maybe trans fluid? Any leaks?

You're in a bright blue Evo, why would a fellow Evo owner shoot you? Its the non-Evo owner with the Evo related license plate that gets shot.

And yeah, general is kinda dumb.
