Hello Everyone,

I own a 08' Lancer GTS. I love everything about this car, can anyone disagree. I got both the Sun & Sound Package as well as the Navigation Package. I could not put a single mod on my car and still be happy, but that would be boring. I'll be leaving posts with before and after pics, as well as ask for some opinions. Lets do some work!

Welcome. Just a consideration for you, I would stick with the Works Flash rather than the RRM Piggy.

Im not 100%, but the APR splitter was designed for the GTS frt bumper. I dont think it would look as good, or maybe even cleanly install on an aftermarket bumper.

Good choice on the tires.
Long time ago I had a set of T1S and later a set of T1R they both were great.
You might also want to consider Potenzas from Bridgestone. ;]

From what I understand and the numerous horror stories ive heard from friends and on boards, Extreme Dimensions is an absolutely horrid company. Their kits are terrible and you'd be lucky to get anything close to needing moderate body work to fit.

So here's how things are going so far. I did some painting to the front end/grill, as well as some engine parts and brake calipers. I got some TSW Croft 18" rims with 235/40/18 Toyo T1R's. My WORKS AB Exhaust is shipping in soon. Soon after this I will have my Megan Coilovers. Here are some pics

Has anybody considered painting the black hose tubing for the Injen? I wouldn't mind a nice blue tube instead.
