Well, I guess im a bit late for advise time, but I was going to say... Get 16s, specially if you want boost sometime soon, and dont get evo wings unless you are getting a kit. also, since you're in Italia (i bvelieve you are) see if you can get the JDM front bumper and JDM headlights... also a shorty antenna would look nice. see if you can score some sorta lip kit. and OEM spoiler.
Thats all. Your car looks good, good progress.

i appreciate the advise.. i am lookin into boost in the future.. but i dont want to put any money at all in this engine.. i want to do the 4rd gen eclipse swap.. 4g63T maybe.. i already ordered 17's.. i ordered the same 1s that red 'evo lookin' 1 has.. lmao.. forgot his name.. also i have a CF APR performance wing on the way.. fully adjustable.. im not a big fan of plastic wings.. they look good and all.. but i wouldnt put 1 on my car.. personal preference.. i have thought about getting the JDM parts out here.. but this base is in the ghetto of italy.. nothing but orange trees for miles.. there is a mitsu dealer about 20 minutes away in a major city.. but they dont carry Lancers.. and its also hard to ask for parts when i dont know Italian.. i have installed a shorty antennae recently.. i didnt think it was 'cool' enough for pics.. as well as a 3 gauge pod a-pillar.. it currently has no gauges in it.. i dont know which to get.. i dont wanna roll with a boost gauge before boost.. i am definitely look for a nice lip for the front to do black maybe.. i am going for a very street/performance look.. i know the wing and rims will make my car look completely different..

Your car is looking better and better everytime i check it out. Don't worry about the wing. If you like it then thats all that matters

it looks better than most rice wings, put it more towards the center of the trunk but not too far to the center

you know.. I respect your car.. and you mod and putting time to show/list pictures.. but i really think your car is ricey... i am not trying to make fun of you or anything. That's what i think, but if you like what you are doing..
When i first bought the car at 2003, there wasn't too many parts for our cars. And i brought my car to the import shop to buy some parts and he told me "dude you bought the wrong car!", and i was like "but i like my car". just like that if you like your car its all that matters..

Why does everyone always say "it's fully functional"? What proof is there that it is serves a function?
