Used touch-up paint on one of the wheels that I scraped recently. Looks OK, but you can tell it's still there.

That is a gorgeous car Jeff, from boy racer to business racer :P


As for me i took some better shots as the ones i put up yesterday were horrendous night-garage pics

The tyres are kumhos and are so much wider than my old ones, added bonus that i didnt even expect :)

haha to answer the questions in summary, i was a bit over the whole 'boy racer' evo. it's a great car and loads of fun, but it attracted so much negative attention everywhere, was becoming very costly to run (petrol, insurance, etc- keep in mind i'm <25) and i just wanted something more relaxing and easy to live with which the missus could drive as well when we go on a long road trip. wanted to have two cars but couldn't fit them in my lock up garage so decided to move on from the evo.

ps. it's a diesel.

Nip that's fair enough then Jase. As long as your happy and stick around. I'm sure someone will always let you drive their EVO to bring back some memories

Yeah the Evo comes with a bit of "boy racer" stigma. The Merc is pretty awesome though.

Luxury Euro and Jap cars generally hide their performance better, since they look so much the same to the untrained eye. I'd love to get something like the IS350.

1. Installed Philips Xtremepower bulbs.
2. Installed large ClubCJ decal on the rear window. Had trouble with the small "CJ Lancer Club" text, so I had to remove that.
3. Spray painted the engine cover red with spare caliper paint.
