The wife drives the Evo (unless RX-7 broken), I will post different pictures when the graphics are pinstripped (I think it will change the look), it doesn't have suicide doors but yes it does have vertical doors. It does have a purpose....it allows me to open doors without dinging them getting in / out in my trailer. I realized there are people that will say its a ricer mod. Oh well, I can't go back now....the hinge is shaved off as if it was factory.

Technically lowered 1.5" from stock, don't know who else is sporting 19" shoes and still drives it on the street, but it will hit the fenders while turning as is...

Mom (my wife)....does not know....but she will find out if FD is broken! I'm stealing the car on Sunday to take it autocrossing. She doesn't know that yet either.

I'll let you tell mom, while I'm out slaving away in the garge! I might recommend putting some straight wheels with some unbalding shoes on that evo before auto anythinging it! Or mom may have to take the 7?

ahhhhh!! i didnt even notice the graphics when i saw these on mhr...not my thing but it isnt bad or anything. everything else is sweet...cant wait to see that thing in person sometime.
also whats up with the lip on that bumper? i have seen it before, actually where i bought my 99 from they had one like that. is it seperate, because in the pictures i`ve seen it looks like its part of the bumper. because other than that it is just a 99.
p.s. i think some feed sides would look really good on there. its not too late! i think im going to use some.

FD title holder since 94

Decals of any kind have already been done. The design of them runs together in my head as just begin decals since they've been done in almost every way shape or form on cars at most car shows.
Overall I think the car looks great, nicely thought out mods, only drawback in my book is the decals as you can tell

Not sure I like the pinstripe across the taillight. I dropped the car off to the best pinstripper in Colorado and said surprise me. I just bought another FD that I'm going to part out....so I may just steal those and see how it looks. I guess the pinstripping on the taillight is the old skool way to do it.
We tried to lower it as much as possible....but I can't even get the car into the trailer as it. We need to make some special ramps....I want the thing hammered but damn....I can't drive it anywhere!
