- Carbon Fiber Radiator Shroud: just because it's cool
- Partner with somebody to make good quality replacement shocks and sell them with your springs as an alternative to coilovers. Make this a package deal that includes some nice alignment recommendations
- Think about what was done to the Lancer that was in the 25 Hours of Thunderhill last Fall...your company name was on the side of the car...what was done to that? There has to be something in there worth selling (it was finishing in front of some BMW's and Subaru's)
- End links & possibly control arms
- 2-point front strut tower bar instead of the 3-point you have now: It would be easier to put on and take off and wouldn't bump up some Auto X people to a different class just for using it
- T-Shirts!
- Are your stainless brake lines for just the front wheels or for all 4. I know it doesn't make a huge difference with the back wheels, but hey...you wanted suggestions. Package together the rotors, lines, pads, and some decent fluid - "RRM Brake Upgrade Kit". A good budget alternative to a BBK

-Projectors, they will be your biggest seller. GUARANTEED! (I think I speak for countless people on this forum as well as in the Lancer community)
-Shocks would be good as well as long as they are reasonably priced
-Control arms seem to be pretty weak on our lancer and are what I hear breaking first in any sort of low speed collision so this would probably be a welcome change, although I'm not sure how practical it is.
-CF Vortex Generator would sell like hot cakes also, currently I think the only good one is imported?
- RA Tails for less then the OEM ones cost(I've seen 2 or more vendors with these in stock for $350 or less incl. shipping)
- T-Shirts would be awesome, maybe in a couple colors, long and short sleeve. Sell them cheap though as it is free advertising, your stickers seem to be kind of pricy thats why I mention cost.

All good ideas. Some are not for a street car though and some are a matter of style. I'm listening though..............

Racing Seat Options that actually don't set off the SRS light.
Radiator, Pistons, or any engine internal upgrades.
Im down for anything you guys make for the 08.

My vote goes towards the development of an LSD and intake manifold. Also new internals would be nice. I want to see some performance parts for N/A builds.

Also what happened to your lip kit you were developing?

I say the Vortex Generator and for sure PROJECTORS. Everybody is looking for a good set of projectors for less then the ridiculous price sells them for. Good job on the car RRM

-Projectors w/ Angels
-CF roof cover w/ Vortex Gens
-FG or CF Eyelids
-GTS emblem (but make the S a seperate color like Red/ Orange/ Blue/ Green)
-CF gauge cluster for above your radio/nav.

IDK if we're talking looks or performance..
Performance Ideas
-Intake Manifold (one that doesnt look to belong on a powerwheel...)
-Forged Pistons
-Forged Rods
-Cam Shafts
-Cams
-Cat Delete w/ Sensor
-Dual Exhaust
-Overflow/Hi-Flow Cat
-Lighter Flywheel

Eh, not sure what the 4b11 and 4b12 have internally but I'd like to see more forged parts like you guys did for the 4g lancers.

I also figured you guys do emblems since you sale the RRM one.

Either way you guys do amazing work! keep it up. I'm planning on purchasing many RRM products as soon as I can =]
