Simple but effective - Blacked Out - Do-Luck Lip

I was taking a look at Do-Luck's blog and thought I might share this image of a very simple VIII that looks far better than stock to my eye. The Do-Luck lip itself is a relatively simple and inexpensive way to add some real JDM flavor to your ride. What do you guys think?

If it had jdm headlights, it would look way better.

'murdered out" is done to death. jdm headlights would look better. but you are right, the lip does a lot for the front end of an evo8. the lip, and having the "nose" removed makes the front look even better than the 9 imo. o wait, thats my look haha

Great yet the Seibon Lip and others fit perfect and the cost factor is more favorable.

Plus JDM Headlights would be perfect on there.

I really like the blacked out housings, personally, but the JDM lights would certainly be a nice touch.

And Seibon? They're knockoffs and there's a reason they can afford to give free carbon away to any and everybody building a car for SEMA. Their quality is by no means on par with Do-Luck and fitment has always been a mixed bag from them. I didn't post this to get into an argument about knockoffs, I just want to highlight the Do-Luck lip. It's very effective and the design has aged nicely.

jdm headlights is overrated. i like the blacked out look and who cares if it's been done to death, it still looks damn good. and i like the evo 8 front with the nose. it looks more aggressive.

the evo 8 front bumper with the lip look very nice
