Are you sure you have the date right? Jan. 3rd? Seems like you just bought this thing a week ago..

1/31/11. Sorry!

Re: Sleepydsm's 2006 Evo IX GSR
 

Looking good!

Gotta take that fugly bumper off lol.

Re: Sleepydsm's 2006 Evo IX GSR
 

I'd love to!!!

But at roughly:
$550 IX bumper cover (OEM NEW)
$200 IX Lip (OEM NEW)
$200 IX grill kit (OEM NEW)
$~500 paint at a nice body shop

~$1500 for a new bumper cover can wait a bit :)

Re: Sleepydsm's 2006 Evo IX GSR
 

^I thought you located the original bumper?

Re: Sleepydsm's 2006 Evo IX GSR
 

Nice car, that color looks awesome.

Re: Sleepydsm's 2006 Evo IX GSR
 

It's all fucked up. Body shop said about $400 just to REPAIR it, which would be stupid at that point. It'll get a new one one day.

Re: Sleepydsm's 2006 Evo IX GSR
 

I like this car a lot, but I kinda don't want it anymore. wtf.

Re: Sleepydsm's 2006 Evo IX GSR
 

Why?

Re: Sleepydsm's 2006 Evo IX GSR
 

Because Kevin is stupid and never knows what he wants. ;)

Re: Sleepydsm's 2006 Evo IX GSR
 

Because its not as fast as your DSM?

Re: Sleepydsm's 2006 Evo IX GSR
 

^ That won't be too hard to fix.

Re: Sleepydsm's 2006 Evo IX GSR
 

Hell, I'm rebuilding my entire engine without even getting to drive it first and I don't have buyer's remorse. I might if I find out the tranny and everything else is shot though. :D

The nice thing is I've got my good old trusty DSM to fall back on if this doesn't work out, but I think it will. Keep your chin up, it's not even spring yet.

Re: Sleepydsm's 2006 Evo IX GSR
 

lol wow, that was fast!

Re: Sleepydsm's 2006 Evo IX GSR
 

Let's trade cars for a day and I bet you'll want it back and keep it.

Re: Sleepydsm's 2006 Evo IX GSR
 

If the rear diff whine doesn't kill him first! :D
