    Hey Guys,

    I have a 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer ES in Tarmac Black.

    I got the modding bug for a little while, and I ended up blacking out the front, red emblems, red calipers, and ralliarting the front.

    And the bug went away, and then it RESURFACED.

    I just bought a GTS spoiler online, and I was wondering what other mods you guys suggest. I'm thinking only dress up, not really interested in performance (I have a 350z for that).

    Minor Mods that have caught my attention are:

    VG Shark Antenna (Although, 81$ seems a little pricey)
    Ipod Cable Installation
    LED Lighting (License plate, dome light, reverse light, etc.)
    Angel Eyes!?

    I'd love your input

    The IPod cable is always a plus, i'd sugges a nice sound system too. lol easy install. as for looks, i'd say RIM, Rain Gards, Maybe a Body kit if you have the money for one...Tint, HID's...Car looks good, nice clean shine. If your into this thing, i'd say the "eyebrow" on your windshield.

    foglights, HIDs, drop, nice rims, wind splitter, debadge it if not done, angel eyes, NO SHARK FIN (get a shorty), tint the tails for get the RA tails, side skirts, vortex generators look good, black out the refelectors/body turn signal/reflector in headlight, cf hood/trunk?.......

    sorry, just a bunch of ideas haha.

    RA tails, fog lights, HID's, tint, GTS fangs and lip, GTS side skirt (or Evo if you can get a pair..)

    Just follow the golden rule. KISS.
    Don't go crazy and buy everything. Make sure you really like it before you buy and make sure it'll look good with the other stuff you're getting.

    Lol I think the fangs are just two holes and some good sealant. Doesn't soud too hard to me.

    Not even. The fang just have 4 or 5 holes and thats it. No sealant needed. Check out this Thread, I lost my front fangs and bought new one's through Shadows. Comes with a new easy to install instructions.

    That's kinda crappy that they cost that much.. their 1/20th the size of the side skirts yet they cost nearly the same. If you're considering getting the fangs koko, I'd get the spoiler first. Really changes how the car looks IMO.
