Little update. Car needs to be lowered, and will be in a month or two.

Not Imola, Enkei EDR-9. Very similar design but the EDR-9's have a couple more spokes.

Thanks.

I'm part of a collegiate car club, and we're given discounts on purchases from a local shop over here.

when you plasti, make sure to remove the masking right after you spray then re-mask.. if you wait till it dries, it will pull the black layer off as well

Thx Amper!...I am probably gonna remove the bumper and black out the trim and middle section next week. Two questions tho:

1. I bought a evo x license plate kit today and installed it but what do i do with the 2 holes that were left from the original center mounting? body filler?? I can take pics if that helps.

2. I noticed that there is a crack on the chrome trim about 3/4 thru the trim. anyone have a link for an aftermarket trim ring?

^It might be because it's the morning here, but your wheels looks like they are 16inches. I really love the look of those Enkei, but they look smaller than the OEM GTS mags.

On another note, I always liked our Lancer when it's wingless...but seeing your Lancer with the wing, I'm jaelous

Haha they might just look smaller because of the huge fender gap. They're 18". Our lancers def have unsightly fender gaps, and the car will be dropped soon enough, don't you worry.
