Hi everyone!
I have been on the forum for awhile just looking but I figured it was time to become a (hopefully) helpful member now that I have started doing some very mild mods to my car. Pics to come soon!
Since then I have done wheels and tires & LED bulbs in the Map lights and rear cargo light. I added LED light strips on the back side of the B-pillars because there were no lights for the back seats. I wired them to the Map lights so I can turn the strips on and off with them. LED plate lights. Installed a aluminum fuel door and chrome door handle covers and side marker light surrounds just to break up the solid white sides.
Motor wise all I have done is a Cosworth filter in the stock box and a homemade cold air intake. Front strut brace.
How she sits today. (I know, I need to detail my engine bay again)
Future plans include strut spacers to give a little lift, possible exhaust upgrade, LED "eyebrow" mod on headlights, LED driving lights behind the grille.
Nice install for those backseat LEDs!
Looks Effective.
The jimmy-rig intake snorkel is pretty good!! Too bad our stock airfilter box has that Square intake portion/part... Otherwise -if round- it would have looked perfect.
Yep, I tried a few ideas out to make it round all the way but I wasn't quite ready to cut up the box. The intake pulls the air from the same hole the stock snorkel did, I just opened the hole up and mounted a round flange to the metal to minimize hot air. I tried making a full cold air set up like the lancers have but the car did not like it so this was the compromise.
I am a tinkerer and I cant leave stuff alone. I like trying to make stuff instead of just buying stuff pre-made. My therapy is going to the u-pull-it yard just to see what I can find.

There's Always room for improvement, that's my motto!
