Got this done today check these pics out






Wasnt sure if I was going to like but now that I did it I think it looks pretty dam good

 

It's all right, but the gloss black doesn't match your grill. I'd get that taken care of.

I know a lot of people are thinking of doing the same thing because of the EVO X, but if you guys already have your 08s than you already know that the part in the middle is NOT separate from the rest of the front fascia; it is part of the bumper and must be cut out if you are going to remove it. That is why this guy painted it.

I'm thinking of getting a Bra custom fit to match that part so it isn't a permanent thing. Also, maybe a manufacturer will come out with some bolt-on Carbon or even aluminum or chrome covers for it, seeing as how so many people are having the same idea.

 

I dont know why but its not glossy I think the lighting behind me is lighting up behind the grill and makes it stand out more in photos Trust me it looks good in person already got complemented on it like 4 times today

 

O and I would like to black the chrome around the mitsu on the front grill but I am not sure if I am going to do that for sure it depends on how hard it is to get it off and i am not sure on how to prep it or can u paint over chrome?

 

photoshop it first to see if it looks good to get rid of all the chrome. the thing that gets to me are foglight housing, it makes it look like the car is smiling. wonder how it looks with it color match

 

OK i finished up today, that dam upper grill is a MF to get off it has these little clips that fight the hell out of u! Anyways the front end is done check it out

 

wow looks great !!!

 

Now it just needs a turbo.

 

looks nice, how hard was it to paint the chrome?

 

nice love electric blue, I am just going to wait till the evo come out then order the evo front bumper for mine...

 

Hello! I'm from Moscow, Russia. I'm waiting for a new Mitsubishi Lancer X. There are some photos of Lancer X for Russian market. Unfortunately we don't have any 18inch rims (only 16), but all cars have a black grill.

 

^^^ thats freakin cool!

but do they all have the mitsu motors thing in the front?

 

Now you need to bake and black-out those headlights.

 

No, they don't. These photos are from a great test drive for Russian customers in Japan, so they all have this plate.

There is a full album: http://gallery.lancer-club.ru/thumbnails.php?album=42

 

personally the mitsu motors is too much logo for me.
