yeah, i did think about it...especially when my friend and i went to the d1gp in irwindale! MAN, there was alot of stuff there, my brain was just getting overloaded with all these ideas. but in the end, i knew i just wanted a good/decent car, performance wise but keep that low profile look...you know, (STOCK LOOKING, COPS WONT' BOTHER LOOKING MY WAY, as long as i don't rev up)
but i don't know maybe theres something out there that i might like...maybe RMR's front lip??? hmmm (thinking)...

hmm, the rims you say? you know, i did want the rims in a bronze finish...unfortunately, they had a difficult time getting them in order for my car(waited over 2 months, and paid for already)! if you could picture them in bronze, would it still look incomplete to you ForeverEnraged.

yeah, i don't know if they are adjustable or not...supposedly they are 30% more stiffer than stock. so if the price is right i'll probably try to get them...ido need to research the other though, like KYB or the TOKICOs, i'm just inclined to get the RALLIARTs cuz...well they're RALLIARTs!!!

yeah...i originally wanted to go NA on it engine wise and i'm keeping to my original decision! just too much money for a turbo set-up, plus since i got my other car(240 sx hb), i chose to go big with the 240, engine swap, frontend conversion, pretty much the whole 9-yards! i'm happy with the setup i got with the lancer...however, if i come across extra $$$, i'd probably get B&M's shortshifter. other than that, i'm witing on my final suspension stuff and hopefully i might have enough for the struts! i could have gone w/ a bigger T/B but it would have probably killed me in gas. that ecu reflash that ROADRACE///MOTORSPORTS was offering sounds interesting, but for right now i can't afford the $600 for it. for that, i'd rather save the $$$ for it then head-on down there so they could tune it to my preffered specification, now that would be worth the $600! sorry dude, did'nt mean to bable like that...but i'm glad you like how it looks, thanks!

I dont mind ur car actually. I honestly think if u tint it(all windows, except windshield of course) that would make ur car pretty much complete, seriously tint makes a huge difference.

Looks good, I like it. Should put an Evo style wing on, I think the Evo wings are great looking.
