    Need advise from the experts... presume that I have a mitsubishi lancer itlog 93 - 96 model, GLXI, GLI or EL model and is stock. How much will be the cost to make it an eye catcher? May mga gusto ako ikabit sa car before repainting like...

    Evo III bodykit (siempre this includes sideskirt, front bumper, rear skirts and spoiler).
    15 or 16 inches mags with low profile na goma (5 spokes kailangan ko).
    Heavy tints (Yung talagang hindi kita yung loob ng car).
    Muffler (Yung hindi gaanong maingay pero medyo malaki size).
    Carbon Fiber Hood (Like yung hood ng EVO V pero carbon fiber nga lang).

    And will paint it a two tone color... Apple Green and Black, customized siguro kase gusto ko apple green from front up to the midpart of the rear doors then black up to the tail of the vehicle. Sa mga ikakabit ko... what if kung kukuha ako ng secondhand na mags and tires and the bodykit is not original EVO III (meaning to say customized lang or pwede second hand). How much kaya will be the cost? Magkano ba yung EVO III na bodykit? Yung pa-tint? Muffler?(Kahit anong muffler... like Nodalos etc..) Carbon Fiber na Hood? And Customized Repainting? Yung engine may mga alam na ako na isasalpak kaya I am thinking now sa exterior nung vehicle. Any good advises from you guys kung ano mas mainam na ikabit sa car and the price? Balak ko po talaga gumawa ng first project car ko kaya mas mainam na magcollect muna ako ng info about these things bago ako magproceed sa gagawin ko. I chose a lancer itlog kase tingin ko medyo magaang ang kaha nya compared to other vehicles, ayaw ko kase ng hatchback. Your advises will help me a lot in building my project car. Thanks in advance!

    i'd go with the libero bumper, CF hood, nice rims (at least 16s) and a decent drop. get a chambered muffler with a 2.25" inlet and your set to go IMO.

    Sir ssaloon, is it okay to put lowering springs on a car without changing the stock shock absorbers? May nabasa kase ako dito na thread na kapag nilowered mo yung car eh masasacrifice yung ride comfort nya kase bababa yung stretch ng shocks at hindi sya masyado maglalaro... the overall weight of the car will give the stock shocks some pressure kaya hindi masyado magtatagal yung lifespan ng shocks!? Kaya naisip ko na magskirts nalang instead of lowering it to give the car a lowering effect without sacrificing the ride comfort! Is it true? How much po kaya magagastos don sa proposed setup nyo?

    For me, I'd restore it back to brand new specs as how it would look like when it rolled off the showroom floor. Wala ka nang makikitang ganun ngayon. But that's just me.

    old model cars look better clean and stock. pag kinabitan mo ng kung ano-ano 'wannabe' or rice racer ka na.

    sa akin lang....

    a. 16" or 17" rims with 50 series tires.
    b. 1.5 inch drop.
    c. chambered muffler
    d. no tints.
    e. momo steering wheel
    f. momo shift handle

    danda nyan...
    tapos invest in a good sound system....

    skip the two tone colors. liliit ang itsura ng oto. mas maganda ang two tone sa mga SUV/AUVs.
    paint it black or silver.... angas tingnan nyan.

    Ganyan yung epekto ng isang 90's Tamaraw FX na nakita ko dati, mga 3 months ago. I was driving behind it, manghang-mangha talaga ako sa linis kahit luma na. All-stock setup, even the upholstery looked like it was brand new, wala kasing tint yung windows.

    Spend all that money on getting your body panels absolutely straight and smooth, and get a killer paint job. Replace your lights, front and rear, with brand new (stock, preferably) items. Then get a slight drop, 1" to 1.5", some nice 17" mags and tires, and spend the rest restoring and refinishing your interior (with good leather, preferably).

    While a show car may turn heads, sometimes, a simple set-up with an extremely clean look will turn more. One car that gained lots of attention at the last ProtegeTech car show was a Lynx RS that was detailed to perfection. Kahit yung mga ilaw mukhang brand new. Inggit na inggit kaming lahat doon.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    For me, I'd stay away from the EVO bodykits, if your car isn't actually an EVO.

    Lalabas kasi masyadong trying hard, wannabe racer ka, which is a major turn-off (at least IMO), especially kung wala namang serious engine mods. Baka freeflow muffler at "sampayan" lang ang dinagdag mo.

    A nice urethane paint-job and good set of rims (Rota Battle!) is enough for most to nod appreciatively at your ride.

    Amp ok lang maglagay ng borloloy pero wag naman sobra sobra. Siguradudin mo lng lalagyan mo ng maasyos n muffler para mapanindigan mo ung pagiging mukhang racer ng kotse mo. Ung mga gusto pang OEM lng n mga stock wala kcing panggastos, e kaw mukhang meron naman, wag lang i overdo aus na yan. Everything that is too much is bad....

    Grabe naman. Mayayaman yung mga nagsabi non. Maganda nga stock lang itsura pero malinis na malinis.

    di ako mayaman at walang panggastos.

    Bring everything back to stock.

    but get a set of nice mags...

    have it smoothened out, then repainted..

    then learn how to take care of the paint to keep it glowing in the sun

    Have you considered carbon fiber vinyl? I covered mine completely, put 16" mags on it and gave it a fairly heavy tint and I get tons of compliments on it.

How to build an eye catching lancer itlog?
