    What do you guys think about about the Evo X plate frame???? i just ordered it, i currently dont have one but i just got a ticket for not having one. Cali law requires it :cry: I have the carbon fiber overlay on the middle bumper so i think it'll look alright. but im interested in your opinions :oops: Oh, and i ordered the S-Tech Tein springs on 12/22 so i think the drop will give it some style.

    nothing wrong with ebay. u just gotta know what to watch out for and to always use a credit card or a debit card with a visa or mc logo on it and use it as a credit card. this way if u get burned u can request a credit back by visa or mc. works every time.

    I have my reservations about drilling into the bumper cover. Hopefully when the Evo X comes out there will be a factory kit that will bold/screw in behind the cover. Other than that, it looks ok.

    i do too, i hear that you can use commercial grade velcro and it will work just fine.

    /\ not sure about velcro.

    I agree about drilling into the bumper cover. I was upset when the dealership did it to mines :cry:

    i decided to drill. It fit fine and i love it. Velcro you are so risking the worse. If you don't plan on removing it by would 2 addition al botther you.

    And about the front wholes. Im just gonna get that filled in and then put a vinyle infront :)

    FinestGTS how is the quality of the plate holder is it custum fitted? and did you get the blue one or the black one. On the last ebay listing it said the price was going to go up. I was thinking about getting a black one, but the blue one is tempting. Anyone?

    quality is good, fitment was good. i give it a A- imo.

    I drilled, i do not recommend velcro at all.

    i never put my front plate on. back in my younger days, not having the front plate got me out of a ton of tickets (gave the cop some other little thing to write me up for). plus it looks better without it :D

    thanks finest i think i m going to buy it but why a A-minus?
    I have been drivin around for a month and had to talk my way out of one ticket already; there are so many police checks during the holiday it iz making me nervous how long did it take to ship to you finest?

    took probaly about a week for him to ship. A- is due to the fact that you have to make 2 new holes, and that when i didn't it their is still a lil gap on the top left corner but not a big deal. so i gave it a A- :)

    I also got pulled over but once he saw my military ID, he had a good chat with me and let me go on my way. :) Even gave me his PBA card :)
