17 Year Old Zippo's Car... New Stuff And Pics!

does the s2000 antenna lower your ability to pick up stations at all? Sometimes around here even with my RC antenna I get static.. Figured id ask while it was brought up. thanks.
I like the rims. Sideskirts are great. Front bumper does not work. Bad fitment on edges. Looks like an lancer with an overbite. Im not quite feeling the hood, go carbon fiber. Otherwise, what is the point in the fake air inlet like the evo 7 hood, that says rice cheese all over it. I give you props on taking time to fix up a lancer. I would not have that type of patience.
Why is the front bumper more dull of a white than the rest of the car? That is the only thing I can see that doesn't look nice. And the front bumper has a hole for an intercooler with no intercooler, I would have gone with a different front bumper unless I planned on buying a large intercooler later.

ok, for you rim fanatics...(i'm one too!) these are Final Speed rims directly from Japan. Cost = $250 plus shipping and they are a very nice ride for 17's. WEBSITE but its in Japanese so good luck i guess. I'm switching back to black wipers too, i don't like the white. The from bumper is being replaced by a techsport bumper this summer and YES it is a duller white because i wrecked it
and had to refiberglass and paint it myself (never painted before) and i had no idea what to do. I think it did an ok job to get me through to the summer though. I've always wanted a wing and i mainly choose to get one because of the body kit; just think it will fit along with the bodykit theme better. Also, i'll be getting a shorty antenna as well.
Thanks for the comments and it all helps!!!!!
