Lancer getting Pimped - Project "Diablo"

raftaar · 27th October 2007, 22:18

redeye, i own one of the earliest modded lancers in the city. a totally done DC Designs one from 7 years ago. i have one piece of advice...don't do metal modification. unless you want your car to be standing still most of the time!
i have the original lancer rally spoilers. they weigh a ton. paid 18000 to the dealer 7 yrs ago. i also have large hellas where the fogs are supposed to be. of course the entire front and rear bumpers are custom DC designs.

@razor4077- The hella's were hard to find at the start cos i wanted them somewhere between 6inch - 7inch radius to fit in my bumpers.the pair what i have are 7inch radius .. thanks to blueraven finally found them at super carz J.c.road.
but the bad news is i think i got reaped cos i paid 5k

guys need suggestions again

this time with alloys i have ordered Lenso nx from chennai
http://www.uniracingwheel.com/wangye/LENSO-NX.jpg

they didn't have it in stock i just looked at the pic and ordered .

now i'm not sure how this will look with my lancer cause i recently saw a alloy similiar to the nx .but the spokes have too much curve to suit a lancer but will look beautiful on swifts .

pls suggest other alloy with model no that suit lancers.

i saw the similar alloy in a car accessory shop in r.t nagar but it was in gold colour do try there it would be much better than getting it from outside bangalore.

how about lenso rs5 white for my red lancer.. will this suit

blueraven316 · 28th October 2007, 15:50

There are not many samurai series rims available in 15", though the sc03/04 look too hot, but only 17" available.
How much are you paying for a set of 5 NX in Chennai ?

raftaar · 28th October 2007, 16:10

redeye...always try to get a look at the wheels before you buy. they might not be what you bargained for if you order from pics.

oh...also i don't like wheels that have too much gap in between the spokes. they look good in cars whose brake drums are as big as the wheels. just look at sports car pics and you'll see what i mean. otherwise...all you'll see are big gaping holes.

How about these?

rs5 is white ?

I suggest that you do some photo-shop or even better post a pic of the Lancer in the Photoshop thread and let the experts do some work.

Gives you a better idea of what suits your car best.

redeye · 28th October 2007, 22:06

Ok what do you guys think about this?

faithless_1984 · 28th October 2007, 22:34

NICE....are you getting the same body kit ?

badboyscad · 29th October 2007, 01:14

i dont think he is getting the same body kit..the lancer in the pic is actually white in color, has autopsyche bodykit and its from chennai..redeye is getting evo type kit if im correct..

redeye · 29th October 2007, 21:57

yup your right ... so lets try the same alloy with kitups lancer ... cos the bodykit is similar to it...

redeye · 30th October 2007, 19:38

pls post comments
the only main difference would be the alloys would be smaller 15-inch but i think these are 17inch

blueraven316 · 30th October 2007, 19:45

looks real nice , a lot better than the NX rim! the KR5 by lenso in white will give the same look.
