Fun! work that OT! haha.

I like the way the car is coming out... I think the lights look better! Not my fav. But it does match!

and like they have stated, if your not gonna turbo it .... leave the engine alone... Takes a bit to get our OZ's up to par with an EVO.

I think painting the sides white would look great. Leave the center section black. I have seen an evo with that same set up on a CF trunk and it looked bad ***.

thx =D
on a second matter does anyone know if replacing the stock shocks on the oz rally for performance ones would be a solution to the problem im currently having with my coilovers thats making the ride really bumpy when going fast on uneven roads causing the front tires to skid my fender guards? if so any recommendations on what i should get?

I'm guessing you have those coilover sleeves from ebay? Those aren't real coilovers and at the moment there are no performance struts made for the lancer. If you want different struts, you have to buy real coilovers.

no i didnt buy coilovers from ebay i got mine from option racing and i also wasnt looking for struts, not same as shocks. when we took off my car's stock springs the shocks in there were very weak and they went down real easy when we pushed them down thats why im looking to replace them. thx for your input tho

Those are not coilovers, they are coilover sleeves. True coilovers come with a matched set of struts. The reason why the ride is bumpy and uncomfortable is because the stock struts are not designed to work with a stiffer and lower spring, they are designed to work with the stock stuff. If you want better struts, you'll have to buy an entire kit. I would suggest you read the FAQ in my sig to answer some of these questions.
