2012 Mitsubishi SE Project Thread

Since there isn't a category for 2012+ show and shine, I guess I'm going to have to post my project thread here.

I've had the car for about 2 months and purchased her from Anahiem Mitsubishi. They gave me a great deal on her. So since I got a great deal, I had to add a couple of goodies. Went with a bluetooth, Lancer door sills, Lancer fuel door, Lancer weather floor mats, chrome grill package, and Lancer trunk mat to start. Here are a couple of current pictures.

Currently making plans to upgrade the interior and exterior.

I will post more pictures soon. Right now I'm focusing on upgrading the interior and exterior. Currently stock piling a bunch of parts in my garage. Since there isn't a wide range of engine upgrades, I'm going to start with cosmetics first.

Stock piling the parts in the garage. Can't wait to the new year because that is when I start the modifications...

UPDATE! Had some time this past weekend so put in a little work. Added Mitsubishi hood protector, Ralliart grill emblem, Evo front license plate kit w/ blk "Lancer" frame, Ralliart license bolts, Mitsubishi rear mudguards, and Mitsubishi "Lancer" chrome license frame on rear.









Hopefully I get a chance to get back in the garage this weekend.

Who is to say you can't put Ralliart parts on a Lancer that isn't Ralliart? And I plan on adding a lot of Ralliart engine parts to the car. As for the mudguards instead of mudflaps. I don't want to follow the crowd, so I went with the mudguards. Modding a car doesn't mean you have to do what everyone likes in a forum. Last time I check, it's better to be a little different then to run with a crowd. But that is my opinion.

I think you can and should do as you like. What are you thinking of next? Drop in filter? Intake, exhaust? INterior lights? HID, led? Good luck and keep us posted!

A little update on what is going on. Haven't had all the time in the world to work on the Lancer, but I was able to add a Ralliart strut brace, Ralliart pedal set, and KN filter.
