I think it looks really sweet, maybe I would have kept the original front bumper though. I love the way the owner has kept that OEM look.

Am I mistaken or are those rear lights from an Evo VII (which look far better IMO than the Evo VIII´s)

yes those are JDM tail lights.

i dont know, but i love volk R wheels, and the bronze black combo is soo cool.

the gialla bumper is sweet, but maybe too much, IMO the gialla FB gives the evo 8 the agressive look that the evo 6 used to have.

These holes in the front bumper are a bit weird looking, otherwise I really like it.


I like the wheels, they look great, and the hp & torque numbers are nice too. 8)


Just noticed the JDM tail lights as corvette97 said, they are such an improvement over the stock US-market tail lights.

Me too I prefer definitively the Evo 7. But, it's cool to see the EVO 7 tail lights on this EVO 8.

Tasefully modded should be the word.....but if I dump so much money on the car already, I may as well get up and down pipe as well...........or many be a new HKS turbo. I may be 3k more...but definitely gonna make good use on the exsisting mods

Love the Rays wheels, love the colour, hate the front bar!!!
Reminds of Japan's VIP style :roll: Van bars, cow catcher stylee.
And those holes are Wack.
Simple(but not cheap! :shock: ) to dress up EVO 8; HKS Kansai carbon canards/lip on the standard front bar, carbon bonnet, Ti HKS exhaust, carbon rear diffuser and the Volk wheels.

It looks very well maintained. I dont like the the front bumper though as it looks like it'll plow up the asphalt.

Front bumper took some getting used to but I have to admit to quite liking it. Wheels are an awesome choice and really suit the car. Only thing I'd possibly remove is the little spoiler on the rear screen.
