apline white gets my vote, or the lfa white. just out of curiosity wouldn't it have been cheaper in the end just to buy an evo rather than install the kit and repaint the whole car?

beats me...the sig says ralli (for ralliart?), and the steering wheel looks to be from a ralliart. but the single cheapo exhaust screams lancer...

EDIT: it has a manual, so it has to be a regular lancer...ralliart only have SST option...oh man this cheap imitation of an evo got me. /facepalm

WAIT...so the guy is claiming to be a ralliart, but puts on an evo kit...am i getting this right?

yeah i believe its a lancer GTS/ES with a evo steering wheel.

while its fine going with the body kit you chose, just dont claim it to be something its not. i myself want the widebody look of the evo but the only ones for the lancer are to make it look identical to an evo, which i dont want. when i get one with a different style front and maybe a single exit rear, ill be all on it.

but the kit looks good and i would go with the artic white.

Thank you for your feedback guys

I am certainly leaning towards the Arctic white as I went to the Car show today to view the Lexus LFA in person and it is one amazing piece of machine... but overpriced for a lexus.

I have a lancer GT w/ Evo fq400 body kit and I call it a wide body due to the wide body evo quarter panels and fenders.

The car was dyno at 338 hp w/ the help of my custom built turbo kit... a lot of folks on the street were under the assumption it was a ralliart.. guess I went with the flow instead of bothering to explain my build. (apologize for the confusion).

I am in the process of doing a 2.5 single ducktail re-amemiya exhaust conversion. So it does look hideous at the moment as i re-installed my stock exhaust.

@ Drew that grey is sickk but its a lot of trouble doing a complete color change.

I honestly paid 1/3 the retail price of an evo to get the car where it is now as I work in the automotive industry. Purchased the car at an auction.. built custom turbo kit + molded widebody kit + pending paint.
Surprisingly it currently runs faster than a ralliart and stock evo x.. but certainly doesn't drive and respond like one... of course an evo x is a better option if you want to do financing or pay for one cash.

Not an authentic FQ400 body kit. It's the test and service I believe. Look at the rear reflectors

Actual FQ400:

^ well duh, i think most of us know its the accolade kit, its been floating around for a while, just no one has really bought it.

hence the guy said he paid 1/3 of the price for an evo to have it at its current point.
