* Custom Metallic Copper Pearl paint, Shaved door handles, molded shut rear doors, molded kit, custom evo style hood, custom mounted rear license plate, TEIN full coilover suspension, M3 mirrors, blacked out headlights, custom header back 2.5" exhaust with gutted cat, OBX racing header, B&M short shifter, short ram intake.
What yall think...good and bad...I know its not your average show lancer, put a little custom style into it

Looks good! love the paint color. love the shaved trunk, but dislike the placement of the licence plate, and dislike the bumper(oem looks better)
keep it clean, thats always a safe choice on a nice looking car! keep up the good work,(and DAng your car sits low, or might jsut be the pictures)

putting kenstyle front end on it...and the car can go lower...its bout 3/4 way down on the TEIN SS coilovers. will get side shot up after it gets its last coats of paint...wet sanding it this week and doin a little touch ups...
That car is fresh, and I don't like exterior modified lancers at all usually. But, I have to agree with the others on the plate (wouldn't it be a bit illegal too?). Not trying to diss you, it's unique. It's you.
lol I remember i had that same rear bumper and someone told me i had a bench on the back of my car but on the real i like but the rear plate just does'nt look good but i will give you 10 gangsta points for being different
Damn, nice color and i am diggin the shaved door handles! i dunno about the molding the back doors shut tho... i occasionally have ppl sitting in my back seat and its just a funny thought to have them climb over through the front center counsel to get back there... Would be like a death trap if people were back there and you got into an accident, haha, not good!
Agreed on the rear bumper tho, sorry dude but totally not a fan. But i am glad you like it, its your opinion that made your car unique. Kudos!
Wanna Help Me Paint My Body Kit To!? Haha

Molded the rear doors shut to be different. When going to shows and trying to compete in Wild classes...gotta do something to set apart for all those damn civics lol...
but i plan on putting a system back there...and no one ever rides in my back seat so i was like wtf why not... ha ha... so we broke out the welder one day and went at it...it looks damn good in person!
I am probably going to wet sand and touch up, then shoot a base coat in like a super white or bright silver, then shoot the candy pearl copper over it...think it might give more contrast to it...
