hey guys just showing off the new springs.

The tein's give a nice drop without killing my stock shocks ..hopefully
no rubbing on 18" wheels
These aren't especially made for the 08's but for the older lancers.

rides stiff but that would be the case with any aftermarket spring. it doesn't really bother me that much, lets me feel the road better. my headlight overlays are made from the clear bra material..its nice and thick. I applied it like a vinyl....wet it and sqeegee it on

i know the s-techs for the evo feel like crap, swapping them for different springs made a WORLD of difference, how the ones for the lancer are better, car looks real nice with the drop!

the curvature of the lens make sit really hard to apply vinly without creasin it. I was thinking about getin it professionally sprayed but its a lot of money and I don't wanna ruin my oem lights.

the s techs are ok...ride isn't that bad...compared to oem. its just really annoying to go up slopes. its almost definite to scrapthe botom **** of my car.

u think there is anything I can put under my car to save it and help it from being further damaged. I was thinking of getting a cheap spliiter to put inder my front bumper...and it will also lok prety sexy

Splitter will break and fall off quickly.

Stop trying to rig it. Do it right or not at all.

Ummm...

- You mentioned buying a splitter.
- I said that since your car is already too low, the splitter will just hit the ground and break. Then it will fall off.
- Don't just slap parts on your car. If it's too low, then get better springs.

looks good. i'm thinking about getting some for my car but I want to make sure i get the right ones. What's the part number for the tein's that fit on an '08 Lancer. I know it has to be the ones for the '06 Ralliart. Is it SKR66-AUB00, thats the only one i figured would be it.

Im too lazy to look it up but do the S-Techs drop 2 inches? I wonder if the aftermarket shocks and struts work for this car too(for the older Lancer) dont want to ruin the suspension eventually on the stock setup. looks good by the way
