My 2003 Lancer ES!
And youre gonna laugh but toothpaste. it actually works great. Alright so i got a bowl of water, and paper towels and of course toothpaste. First i masked off my headlight so i didnt hit any of my paint with the toothpaste cause it has a grit in it. Then, took the toothpaste, put some on my finger, little bit more than you would put on your toothbrush and put that on one end and then the other and just rubbed in circles with the papertowel all over my headlight. If you need more toothpaste, you can add more! I had to! And just keep rubbing in circles. If it starts to dry out add alittle bit of water. Then i took a new papertowel and dipped it in the water and did the same thing rubbing the headlight in circles until all the toothpaste was off. i did it three times on my passenger side and two times on my driver side. Took the tape off. Then wiped all the water off, wiped my bumper off and all around the headlights and made sure everything was dry and clean. It smells minty fresh but dont worry the smell goes away
and then after i made sure everything was dry and all the tape was off, i took some hand wax and went in circles on the headlight again and then wiped all the wax off. Only do that once. After that, they should look crystal clear

Oh awesome thanks. I think I'll wax it rather than clear coat it. And I didn't know rims higher insurance.
Random question btw. Do you know how to change a 02 sensor . I keep trying with like players or whatever and it won't screw off. Should I take the heat shield off first then use a wrench ?

the 02 sensor on the manifold? Yeah i would think take the heat shield off and then just wrench it off and then you should be good. You might not even have to take the heat shield off, not sure though havent look under my hood in some time other than looking at belts and pulleys

Really? hmm, it really worked for me and ive heard from many people that it worked for them as well. Im sorry dudee!
Yeah im gonna be getting new mudflaps soon. I think they look sick. And they block your sideskirts/doors/rearbumper from being sprayed with all the road debris and helps keep your bumpers and sideskirts from potentially getting scratched and dented depending on what youre driving on
Hey bro I had a question for you . I wanted to lower my lancer but I was wondering what a good height would be .
I saw yours but no offense I didn't like how you fenders covered your wheels.
I want to make it so like my tires stick out from under the fenders.
So I was thinking I would put wheel spacers so it would push out the tires n rims. Then put on some fender flares to go with my body kit.
What height do I lower it ? To make it look like this and I don't want them to rub.

Well it depends how low you go for making your wheels stick out. You could also just run a real low offset instead of spacers. Or even both. But it also depends on how wide and how many inches the wheels are. You cant run too high of an offset and have a wide *** wheel cause then the inner rim will touch the strut and that wouldnt work. Or have a real low offset and too wide of a wheel where your wheels will touch your fenders. You have to watch your offset with how wide you go with the wheels. In my opinion, i wouldnt go bigger than 17" in diameter and 7.5" wide, for a 17 inch wheel. for 16 inch and 15 inch wheels you can go wider cause theyre more the size of wheel that should be on our cars. 15s you can go pretty wide, i would say about 8.5" wide but again, really gotta watch your offset. And for 16s, i would say about 8" wide. Keep in mind offset at all times haha Also camber plays a big part in being able to clear your fenders so you can poke your wheels out. I honestly cant tell you what a good height would be for you without any of that information or without knowing what look youre going for
Now fender flares, changes like everything hahah you can run real wide wheels and have a nice aggressive setup. But fender flares requires some body work im sure you know and you can either get it done the right way or basically just hammer the fenders out and throw some flares over em to cover it up and give you more space for clearance. Its up to you but you said something about a body kit, now im not too much a fan of body kits but youd have to include the body kit in this whole thing too. But keep in mind, if youre doing fender flares, get the kit painted after everythings flared up and ready to go
But i honestly cant tell you cause i dont know what style youre going for or any wheel sizes you wanna go with or how bulky of a tire you want and all
