Question for ROCK & Carbon Trix

Since you seem to be making many parts for the Lancer now, would mudflaps be possible? I think that there is a good enough amount of demand.

I never asked, but i know alot of dealerships will put the flaps on some mitsu models. They may for the Lancer, also. I tried calling the my local ones, but its after 5 on a Saturday, so no one is around. Try are not the prettiest, but they would do the job. Give yours a ring and ask. If you are on the west coast, ur dealer might still be open today!

Yeah, CF mudflaps. I think it would be NICE. I'm going for CF as an exterior accent, so mudflaps would be part of it (taillights coming soon). IPT suggested it in his thread, but lord knows where he/she is nowadays.

I have talked to tswift about it, and 90GSX_03Evo (i think that was his SN) was going to make some before he left EvoM, but I still have no mudflaps. ROCK always comes through for us, so I thought I'd ask. I'm not about to pay Machevo $400 for the Ralliart mudflaps.

i couldn't get the oem mudguards installed on my oz because of the oz lip kit.

i'm not sure if my dealership just didn't want to put them on for me for free, but that's what they told me. they go fine on es and ls without lips.

Speaking of rocks flying up under our cars, how much does a full aluminum (or other material) skid plat cost?

Also, does it seem to anyone that the wheel well siding isn't very strong and that almost anything the tires run over are thrown into the cars undercarriage?

I really haven't had that problem. The car does have a hard skid plate under the tranny. I know it's good because I bottomed out on it once, no car damage.

Could use a skid plate covering the fuel lines... large pieces of wood hidden under snow have a habit of scraping the **** out of them...

I'd be interested, depending on cost.
