    These are my latest pictures of my Lancer. I have a K&N air intake on it. I plastidipped the front end, put blue vinyls over the Mitsubishi emblems, half way to debadging the trunk. In the future I am adding a Tsudo N1 exhaust, retinting my windows, tinting my taillights and my side markers. Possibly getting my wheels powder coated because they are pretty oxidized. Does anyone else have any suggestions for me to do? Let me know what you think.

    Thanks for the suggestions guys. What steps do you have to take to switch to HID? What's the benefit and is it hard?

    benefit is its brighter, but only at a certain Kelvin. i have 8,000 Kelvin bulb for my low beams and they are pretty darn bright. with the low beams you will need to buy Jrox's, DRL bypass (daytime running lights) harness. its really simple to install, its a plug and play. you can buy the HID's on ebay, that's where i get alot of my items i use on my car. its pretty cheap.

    DDMTuning.com has good quality HIDs. And pretty cheap. I got my 55 watt 5000K kit for $70 or something. I got them about 2 years ago and no problems yet.

    ^^ Same with me. Bought mine quite a while back and no issues. Plus, they have a lifetime warranty on their stuff...if I remember correctly

    Yes, lifetime warranty. Supposedly. Never had to replace anything, so I have no idea how it works.

    i dont know much about the LED bulbs, i like the HID quality. LED's are bright but i dont think they are bright enough. you can get LED's for the other lights on your car. thats what i did.

    i got mine on ebay for about 30 bucks. you dont change the housing, you need to get the DRL bypass or your HID's will flicker. ebay is a great one-stop shop. i get alot of my items from there.
