Oh, and Drew you gotta give me an honest opinion on the pinstripe.. i can't decide whether to take it off or not. I get some that hate it and some that love it. Im on the fence.
what did you use? paint? or the plasti-dip chicken used? i was thinking about going with that, maybe doing it myself in the garage.. i actually like the stripe, i wish i had one but i think my car can do better without it... ur tails are dark... if you bake ur lights then the stripe may look better.... red and black interior... id say it matches, and its even on the eyelids. so it looks good to me!

The plan is:
3" intake
ZZP stage 3 FMHE
Dual pass endlplate
60lb/hr injectors
Wideband/Interceptor (shouldn't have sold the aem and dual interceptors from my GTP)
2.8 MPS
Tune
Maybe black SS/TC wheels
Maybe water/meth

Or in the case that my car and bike sell, then I'll do the STi "mod"

Well, for me the big upgrade to the car is for my daughter. I bought it on Friday!!! Damn Summit Racing taking my money for things.

I bought this for her, to keep her nice and safe in the back:

Simpson Racing 92000 - Simpson Child's Car Safety Seats - Overview - SummitRacing.com

Looking at getting my summer wheels powder coated or something, other than Silver on the Silver car. Maybe a light tint to the windows too.

For this one, that is about it. I want to get to work on the old one again, so that I can drive that one around some.

Dirty, are you ever out in the Medina area? I have seen a Silver Evo like yours a few times this past summer on the highway in the afternoon.

Ok, I usually see it between 57 and 94 on 76 around 4:30 PM. You would take a completely different route in to Akron.

Good condition. They're powdercoated Black... no Curb Damage. Wheels only have like 15k miles on them, iirc. They're gunmetal underneath the powdercoat.

You come buy them soon and I'll give you some SS/SC Springs for free. That'll lower you a bit.
