wait so your telling me that my saying the mod doesnt look anything like an evo in any way shape or form and being sarcastic about it doesnt justify me saying i dont like it for that reason? there is a nice way of saying things, and theres a way of saying things to be an *******. i was just stating the obvious until you tried to argue the cobalts defense even though you dont own one anymore... seems your being kind of pointless... just like the name of this mod...

There are a few other cars it resembles with the lip painted like that. Its just the evo is more popular and the name just took on. I dont honestly think anyone is trying to make their balt look like an evo..it just adds some style (which not everyone likes) to a rather plain looking car.
If Evo owners get mad..its because they must honestly think they should fear a balt being mistaken for an evo like they have..please..no one really cares that much honestly.

Is there any other car that has the bottom lip painted black like that? I mean we could call it the "bottom bumper lip painted black in the middle" mod since the guy with the evo thinks we are trying to make our cobalts into evo's. Or we can just keep calling it the evo mod, because there's nothing truely wrong with calling it that

How has everyone done theirs? I've never noticed, but it's the whole inside of the opening that's painted. Very cool. How much is it usually to do? Has anyone done it them selves?

Santa fe
and maybe a few others.
To me I like this mod it gives the car a bit more aggressive look which I think it needs.

Remember everyone, this is now called the KiaEvoWindstar Mod 
How did everyone get this done? I know to paint the whole inside where the lower grille would be, but what do I tell the person who's going to paint it how to get the lip just right? How/What do you measure? or do you just kinda follow the body line to paint the lip?
