    So..... This is some what of a progress report. I'll prob end up posting some pics later on when I get them of when I first got my car back in 08. But this is what it looks like as it sits today. I love the Electric Blue Pearl color. Even though it's two years old now. I still get compliments on the color and i'm constantly asked if it's a new car. No other color can beat this IMO. Let me know what you all think of my ride!

    CURRENT:
    {x} RRM LED BLACK TAILS
    {x} RRM SRI V2
    {x} RALLIART FRONT BUMPER
    {x} RALLIART BADGES
    {x} CHROME TRIM (EXTERIOR/INTERIOR)
    {x} REXSPEED CF B PILLARS

    FUTURE
    { } RRM FRONT LIP
    { } RRM PULLEY
    { } EXHAUST (CAT BACK)
    { } CF EVO X SPOILER
    { } AFTERMARKET RIMS

    Thank you for checking out my ride!

    Looking good. I'm not really digging the CF pillars, but to each his/her own. I have a vortex generator on the way, and a few people have told me it looks stupid, but I like it. That's all that matters. You got HID's?

    Unfortunately, I don't have HID"s in. I want to open the headlights and put in the aftermarket AUDI LED style lights at the bottom instead of HID's. I think that would look good. Plus, I'm not sure on how to install HID's.

    Re: EBL08 PROGRESS REPORT (NEW PICS)

    They're relatively straight forward, but for ya'll 8/9 g's I think you gotta have a relay to prevent flickering? Or something like that. Most kits are just plug n play, and really simple to install. Tons of people could help you if you need any help on em. If you do look into getting HIDs I would recommend DDMTuning.com. They're really nice kits.

    So here are the latest pics. I did some trial work with "PLASTI-DIP" on my old stock tail lights, but had no success. So I decided to not paint my rims with Plast Dip. I'll eventually get some aftermarket rims. I then decided to add my "CHARGERS STICKER" and "AUDI" my headlights. Tell me what you guys think of them. it was a clean install and only took about 15min to do total.

    The LED's look really blue at night, but white during the day. Is that just the camera? Either way, they look good.

    Hey hunk,

    Actually, the color of them is the "COOL WHITE". You can see them during the day, but they just come out brighter at night giving them more of a blue tint thats visible during the night.

    Yeah, I just moved to Colorado this weekend. I wanna get some items from the vendor "SHADOW", But money got tight because of the move. I thought about getting gold colored Enkei's as well as a machine metal colored rim. But i'm in between wanting to mod my current lancer or just save up till Xmas and Buy a used Black EVO X. I have no clue what I want to do or what would be better in the long run. Pay off the Lancer in like 2 years or get a new loan and start all over again on payments with an EVO lol. If anyone in the Denver area is interested in a slightly modded lancer, PM ME :)
