Don’t they have a shorter wing that comes in the plain ol lancers? I personally hated my wing and when i switched it i even got compliments about it from some old dude who said “you took off the boy racer wing, good for you”

Not to mention i can see out of my back window and every cop doesnt see me for miles anymore.

sand blast all the rust out, weld a patch and fill, paint. if you can, depending on how good you are at body work. replace the trunk lid?

:barf: :barf: :barf: :barf:

:barf: Just doesn’t fit the evo. I’d rather go wingless than the low-rise.

I just skimmed this thread, but Mark- what dealership did you end up going to?

Cortese Mitsubishi. I go to Cortese Dodge for a bunch of parts every time I do a neon build, so I knew a few of the guys 🙂

its the side view…wingless evo’s look terrible from the side view imho…it makes the doors look huge or something

Yeah exactly. It might look better with the windows up, and Mark’s car is tinted pretty dark so that helps.

Mark, do a wingless photo shoot. 🙂

aww… mustard and catsup

and don’t neuter your evo… it’s the heritage of the car to have the wing.

Low-rise wing FTW!

Don’t go completely wingless, though. I like the big spoilers on the Evos and STIs. Wingless STIs are the worst, imo.
