i saw a thread onm hear where the dude just painted the chrome face of his ss/sc rims and it looked pretty goooood! he called it the euro style, so ill try the euro style with the cf wrap, i think it'll look good, i just gotta cleat coat it so it matches the rest of my carbon fiber

God you still just dont get it. It's the idea. I mean if you want to get literal about it, maybe they should just find a way to graft a EVO X front bumper to the car? Would that make you happy? or would it still need to be more EVO? Should they just buy an Evo, would that satisfy you?

Really like i said, if this is your concern life must be good as its a pretty trivial thing to worry about honestly. Who cares if they dubbed it the Giraffe mod, does it look like a giraffe? No, but its how it is identified its only a word to reference an idea.

Hey do you have any tips on wrapping the trim, because I got mine in today, tried a few pieces but they kept wrinkling and I couldn't seem to get them around so many curves of the trim! Did you start in a certain spot, have to fold parts over, etc.?

Heat with a hairdryer and stretch. If it wrinkles just pull it back a little bit add more heat and come at it again. You really have to stretch it around some of those corners

who the hell would want to copy a evo? the evo mod does not even look like a evo.. thank god, but does make certain cobalt look better. its just a subject tittle to resemble what the concept is.
