FAVORITE MODIFICATION:
"The Varis widebody: Ever since my visit to T.A.S in Japan, I witnessed my 1st Voltex widebody EVO VII. The car looked super aggressive and that appealed to me. I was sad to find out that there was no such kit for the EVO X, but then I found the Varis V1 widebody. This kit was just as aggressive as the one i seen in Tokyo, so I worked a lot, saved, and after 2 years was finally able to purchase the kit. My car is finally the way I envisioned her (exterior). Like most enthusiast, I will have much more to do. "
