My updates! im going back to stock rims for winter so here are the last 2008 pics!

 

Havn't been on this site in FOREVER.

Here's how the car looks now...










And here are the parts Ill be installing in the following weeks...

 

Put my amber sidemarkers on and she's getting dropped Friday!!




Sorry for the crappy iPhone pics I seem to have misplaced the battery charger to my dslr .

 

Lol I already traded them for a set of aftermarket 15s with good tires for the winter , And its amazing how much these amber side markers add to the appearance of the Lancer es. I'm using Tein S techs so it'll be about 1.5 in the front and 1.2 in the rear, soo not too low, Missouri roads suck! lol.

 

Just ordered an H brace.



Up next

-Rear lower tie bar
-Rear Benen black tow hook
-Carbon Fiber Mitsu emblem for front grill
-Amber Accord fog lights
-Hids(haven't decided what temp)

 

How cheap? haha.

So my car is officially lowered on Tein S-techs. Doesn't ride near as bad as I thought it would, Looks good but I think I need some wheel spacers for the rear.

Here are some pics I took..

 

I can't drop it anymore haha, they are springs. However they might settle down a tad lower after they are really broke in. And the rims are only 17's I guess they just look bigger cause it's dropped, I used to have 16's as seen in the older pics but I got a good deal on these.

 

Nice, that's good to know!

Ordered a few more things tonight...wanted a few other mods but I had to put the majority of this check towards school.

Red Engine Dress-up washers:


New Air filter(Mine was looking pretty rough):


Benen Rear Tow-hook(ricer mod lol):


Bomz rear tie bar(meh ill give it a try):

 

Put my Red fender washers on, installed new filter, and cleaned the hell out of the motor today. Still waiten on the tow hook. And they ran out of rear lower tie bars so I got a refund from that and ordered some new Matte black open ended extended lug nuts.

some pics...

The fender washers and new filter.


Before..Sooo dirty!


After I put everything on and cleaned the hell out of it.
