Looks good, especially after you get a drop. Is there any way you can put some vinyl over the mid chrome part on your grill? I think it would look a bit better

Did you tire shine the WHOLE tire? In the 10th picture, the top of that tire looks mighty shiny.

Rims look good man. But you need to tint that ride, and cut back on all that chrome around the front.

nice, you chose a good set of rims to match the blue lancer. like others have said, the car desperate needs to be lowered

you have HIDS for both lows and fogs?

Nice man, I like your new rims.

How did you put in the chrome along the whole grill? Is there instruction somewhere from the forum?

^ that is just the chrome piping with the 3M tape on the back. its the stuff you see ppl use to put o the edge of their doors. get it at any car store like pep boys or whatever u have where u live. also, if you have a white car, dont do it, doesnt look good at all and u can barely notice it. i tried it and it looked like ****. lol. took it off.

o... does those 3m tape hurt/destroy the paint when you try to peel it out later on if you decided that you don't want it?

if you paint the chrome 2m stripe stuff n ur grille and ur mitsu symbols a similar color to your rims ur ride would be tight. that color goes perfect with the blue and it would be set off if u had match accents and rims. def something to consider

I was actually considering the rrm grill and painting it flat black and I already ordered my front bumper vinyl. And yes I have 10k H.I.D lows and 8k H.I.D fogs. They really create an amazing look
and hopefully some eibach sportlines but I need a couple more paychecks to pay stuff off
