I just bought a silver 97 Lancer coupe in immaculate condition with relatively low miles. I know my way around an engine but I don't know much about body work. Does anyone have any recommendations for bodykits and/or improving the overall aesthetics of the vehicle. I'd have preferred it in white but the silver isn't too bad.

Just ad a basic lip kit or something and lower it on some nice wheels.
Don't turn it into a ricey evo clone or early 2000's ricer.
Justin Murphy
Thank you for the suggestion. Yeah, I'd prefer to keep the changes pretty minimal and simple
Christian Brooks
this. they can look pretty nice if done right, but don't slam it and add a fucking evo wing.
Ian Powell
'00 4dr Lancer owner here.
Don't fucking rice out your car.
Ian Rodriguez
There is a factory option bodykit for these that looks good and not ricey.
Julian Butler
any pictures?
Elijah Kelly
Ethan Anderson

Bentley Robinson
That's not it.
Kayden Ward
Are you thinking of the facelifted version?
Kayden Fisher
No.

>buys lancer coupe
>wants to put a body kit on it
This has to be a meme post.... why does every single hectic cunt in his shitty old lancer coupe rice it out with wings, body kits, fart cannons, bob jane racing wheels, momo steering wheel and shift knob.
EVERY SINGLE ONE!
It's a bloody single cam for fucks sake, it's slower than a Hyundai....
Jonathan Hall
They're honestly surprisingly nippy.
Fuck all power, but they grip the road better than you'd think.
Cameron Myers
"I'd prefer to keep the changes pretty minimal and simple". I don't think they're after something hectic.
Eli Russell
A body kit on a lancer is hectic.
It's a single cam commuter, slower than a hyundai excel, slower than a corolla, slower than a camry and yet every one I see has a full sick cannon, alloys, racing steering wheel, R A L L I A R T sticker on the windscreen etc etc
Why doesn't every hyundai have that shit?
Hunter Powell
I think there's a difference between wanting a nice looking car and trying to look like you're driving a some Tokyo Drift import. That's just me though. I did some subtle modifications to my R33, I kept them subtle because I didn't want people to think I was driving around some souped up monster. I just really like Skylines. Just different strokes for different folks and all that jazz.
Evan Williams
Skyline are actual sports cars.
Cameron Torres
I'm referring more to the aesthetics of the vehicle rather than its performance and what's under the hood. You raise a fair point though.
Christopher Anderson
holy fuck those wheels
Joseph Fisher
Because those lancers are reminants of the early 2000's when few lancers escaped mods.
Ethan Bennett
No they aren't 90% of them are 4 door family sedans
Anthony Edwards
Yeah, just add garden edging for the lip (Mighty Car Mods video how to do it), lower it, and get some Diamond Racing steelies and it'll look perfect.
Justin Reyes
Don't do this unless you want to look like a stupid p plater with no clue.
Cooper Robinson
I'd consider lowering it if I lived in the city.
Ryder Rogers
Keep It Stock, Stupid.
Benjamin Walker
Even if 90% of R33 Skylines were 4 door family sedans, which they most certainly are not, they're still twincam and often turbo = sports.
Owen Edwards
Stop talking about skylines in a lancer thread you dumb cunts.
Henry Rivera
Having DOHC does not make a car a sports car are you 12 years old or something? And "often turbo" doesn't mean anything.
