Dropped her on ISC coils, Redid the brakes (faded red to silver), Got some audio in there, Intake and IC piping.

Also redid the headlights and waxed the car, so she started to look like this...

Tinted with a spray can, very light tint with clear coat you can still see the brake light clearly at night.

After a month or so of waiting on wheels, they finally arrived...

[J. Jean]

[Potter]

Looking pretty good

[Crazydelsol]

I would love to have an evo! Looks good

[Genji-Sama]

That was a nice civic, but damn this is an EVO :goodjob: I was liking everything til i saw the wheels, the style i like, the color just seems weird, but still :goodjob:

[gerardojdm]

Are those XXR's or real deal? They look good on it either way.

[Wicho_ej6]

Bad ass upgrade bro hope to see you around

[Dylan]

Your car looks really nice, and damn I want an evo now.

[bondo]

lookin good there buddy nice upgrade

[SHHHH]

Looks good :goodjob:

[Mr.Ek9]

Why go the same route as you did with the civic? Buy some nice parts then fuck them up with some cheap knock-off wheels.

Buy nice, not twice. It's about quality, not the amount of things you can throw on as quick as possible.

[Franco Tirador]

this is dope, an evo with a sunroof, what more could you ask for,

[Arm&hammer]

welcome to the evo fam!!

x2 bro looks really good man, what all have you done to the motor so far?

[Civictyper95]

hey to each their own, why dish out a couple grand for wheels when you can get em for less than $600.

Thank you. No sense in dishing out thousands for a set of wheels when cheaper varieties look just as good.

[Black4DrEK]

I love me some damn Evo's. Nice upgrade.


I will own one, in the future!!

[Go_Fast]

not a fan of these wheels on this car but the evo is SICK!:goodjob:

[s2k_evo]

Nice set up Justin!!! I miss my EVO!
I looked into the XXR`s and they seem solid and great, but a little too heavy for me. Still looks great though

do you know the difference in a cheap wheel and an expensive wheel?

More often than not..... available bolt patterns. about it. XXRs are cheaper because they spin 1-2 different hub bores and use 1-2 different multi lug patterns.

you people who act like Kim Kardashian when it comes to wheels for your street car are a bunch of jackasses. You dont own and probably never have owned a car powerful enough to break the cheapest wheel money can buy. So wise up and quit spreading your bullshit opinion.
