Hakuna Matata: Evo Content
Picked up this Evo IX in mid September. Let the slow process begin!
The trunk before I started the construction on the wood trunk.
The templates were complete.
Let the cutting begin.
Finished.
Coils arrived.

Glad to see the wood is liked, I wasn't to sure how it would be taken. Will definitely have to figure out how to incorporate more of it, subtle touches here and there possibly. Thanks guys.

How much extra weight does the wood add on, is it even noticeable?

I don't notice a difference. I am guessing the wood is probably 25lbs more than what the stock carpet and wood was.

Yea I was fiddling with it all day today trying to figure out why it wouldn't start. Turns out it was just a stupid mistake by me not leaving enough wire exposed in the new eye to make a connection. Runs good now.

NeedingAnAudi actually suggested I do a whole entire wood floor throughout the car as well, but the amount of work seems so insane.

Digging the wood! Not sure how I feel about it with the wing off, but I may be swayed later on!

So I picked up some spacers the other day from a buddy of mine. 15mm for the rear and 25mm for the front. Car still needs more low but at least for the winter I'm sitting a little wider. CAUTION: Excessive wheel gap below
15mm spacer on the left v. 25mm spacer on the right
