Too bad about the rear spoiler! Everything else looks nice, tho'

Default Yeah the MR is way more subtle, but way more expensive i believe too (-:

the MR has those little roof shark fins along the back edge of the roof line. I like the looks of those much better without the "PULL ME OVER" wing.

Default Simple fix, remove the wing. I've seen a number of EVO's and STI's with certain cosmetic aspects

altered to make the car look more subtle. Ranging from removing the rear wing (and either installing other more discreet spoiler or just leaving trunk w/out spoiler) to swapping hoods (more related to STI) with other similar models. Granted some of the cosmetic things I've seen changed didnt seem like the best idea, i.e. swapping regular hood with functional hood scoop for other hood w/out. Need that air flow over engine and IC. Just a thought though, I actually like the wing on the EVO's, but as you said, one of those "please pull me over" things. Granted even without the wing the EVO screems please pull me over!

Default you know, 9/10 Evos are absolutely hideous.

this is the other one. Perfect color/wheel/seat combo! I actually really like it.
