My personal Opinion:

Needs stock wing
Needs blackout housing head lights
Needs stock MR rims painted black.

But I think your car is badass. Eitherway.

Nice looking car.. A few things that I would try.

Wheel width. They look very tiny.
I would also raise the car ~ 1/2 inch.
shorter antenna.

all minor but easy to fix. Nice clean looking car.

Too slammed and too much of a rake. Also, put some 245s on there. Looks great otherwise, though I will say the JDM bumper would really enhance the wingless look.

i agree on the jdm bumper making the rear look better.

Too low, JDM rear, different colored wheels, ditch the CF trunk.

LancerShop.com has a nice CF front emblem for like $40. I think I'm gonna go that route that as a nice compromise-- a clean, subtle look that doesn't totally disguise the identity. You also just have to love some tasty CF.

The "angle" from font to back. The back seems slightly higher than the front, giving it a rake forward.

i think it needs a vortex gen in carbon and def. bigger tires. wheels could probably stay with spacers at least in back. real clean car overall though!

The Stock MR rims are awesome.

I also vote on a JDM 9 bumper. I still think it needs the stock wing back though.

Black emblem, 5mm spacers, 255's, black housing headlights and I think you're good to go.

Hahah the only thing I think I will ever agree with you on is the jdm rear.
