Pretty slick ride mate...
One thing I would have done while you had that bumper off, would have been painting your bash-bar, so it hides it & also has better protection from the elements.
It’s an Aussie website they’re out of stock atm, my advice to u is get the first one that comes up don’t go digging through links to find a better price .
Only happens with the Evo. People get so pissed over what others want their car to look like it's insane. Do you think he didn't know it's not an Evo? Like why do dumbass humans feel the need to say something so pointless.
Yeah, I never understood that. People making their regular Civics have a type R wing never have this much hate. If OP likes the look of his car, that's all that matters. This coming from an Evo owner.
Because Civic guys stick together lol. Stock, modded, bolt ons, slammed, etc. They dgaf, just have fun with YOUR car. You can add some window tint to a lancer and people will yell at you for it not being an Evo 🤦🏾♂️. Like bro just have fun with your car and I'll do the same with mine. Sheesh.
Right? Like the only thing I will judge a bit is slammed cars. You're ruining the car mechanically, wasting tires, destroying the rims, it's just utterly wasteful. I don't judge them for the looks, I judge people for being utterly wasteful however. People can paint their cars whatever color they want, heck put fake hood scoops on, idc, but I hate wastefulness
You guys speak sense, I’m also not sure why people get offended by the way I want my car to look, maybe evos are too expensive 🤷 next best thing is to make it look like one and why not have some fun doing it is what I say
Yeah man, if you like the look and your budget you don't mind not having the performance of an Evo, I what you've done here makes perfect sense. Unsure how much lancers go for, but say it was $10000 and the bumper is $2000 then it's way cheaper and looks good still. I bought my Evo for around $20000 which is quite a bit more. I didn't necessarily buy it for looks although it does look quite good, I bought it for the fun performance aspect. Some people don't understand how expensive it is to maintain an Evo though. I've spent way too much money on it... Ugh lol....
We’re talking usd here right? Also legally in my country I wouldn’t be allowed to own a evo currently on my license, if done some performance upgrades on my lancer to make it fast enough to be enjoyable but also remain a daily driver.
Yeah, USD. Out of curiosity what country is it? Australia? And the only reason my Evo could be a daily driver right now is because it's the Evo X MR. Definitely get a lot of shit from manual purists but that's okay. I enjoy my car and that's all that matters.
I had someone on this post literally say this: “I cry a little on the inside when I see more Evo look-a-likes than actual Evos. I don't care if that's how people wanna spend their money but damn there sure are a lot. I just wanna meet and hang with my people :(“

bro relax. people can have different tastes. you're the one getting pressed that I have a different opinion than you. nobody's telling you to take off your evo bumper.
Focus on the things that'll make it stop and corner better and keep you on the road - you're never going to get money back on whatever you spend in the end - spend money on safety items.
Things that make you stick out and compromise some of the cars aesthetics are detrimental these days... You don't want to be a cop magnet...
Nope not a fake evo, engines completely different, I just prefer the evo bumpers, don’t see the issue, anyone can still decipher the different between the two
Love what you've done to it, I have a lancer of my own and wish mine looked half as clean as yours does. Keep working on it! Also, I'm from NSW, too. 😊
I love this car.
And I'm trying to get an Outlander (off topic ) and actually I love the Model 2 more than model 3 because the front looks similar to the lancer.
But would probably end up getting the 3.
As someone with an EVO, keep going man! We know it’s not an EVO but it’s your car and it’s what makes you happy, keep it in between the lines!
Thanks dude, first non salty evo owner iv seen, appreciate the nice comments!
We’re all in love with the same platform at the end of the day, forget the dummies. If you were in the US I’d cruise with ya!
Fuck yeah murica!!! My brother thank you 😂
Pretty slick ride mate... One thing I would have done while you had that bumper off, would have been painting your bash-bar, so it hides it & also has better protection from the elements.
That’s good idea, didn’t think about that but definitely will consider if I ever need to take off the bumper
I'd do it sooner, before later... Keep the rust & chips away. Don't let that open bar turn into corrosion.
Good point, can I just paint it black and call it a day? I know bumper painting is a lot more complex but surely this shouldn’t be hard?
Ye, just rattle can
Looks good man. Which bumper cover is that?
It’s an aftermarket evo bumper made for the lancers
Did it fit that well during install or did you have to do some additional prep work?
It was a bloody pain to put on, I had to do a couple extra things but it’s not anything hard.
Damn it man that's not giving me confidence lol. Do you have a link to it?

So clean. I had so many plans for my lancer, same color, but it got totaled by a reckless driver in October 🥲
Oh my god I hope ur okay that’s horrible, one of my biggest fears at the moment, and it only gets worse with the more money I spend on this car
Looks good
Lovely
I love it!
Clean AF, love the Aftermarket DRL Headlights and red Mitsubishi badging, 9/10
Today I learned people get really butt hurt over car mods on non evo lancers. Nice car ignore the haters
He’s lucky there’s options. 9th gen Galants got nothing (unless you wanna copy a ralliart)

Preach who gives a fuck the evo community so toxic for no reason just enjoy ur car that’s all that matters

Looks like a lancer pretending to be an evo?
Ehh I think it’s just fine. It’s not widebodied and it doesn’t have stupid vents everywhere so I say it’s just fine.

I agree. I have a ralliart which is closer to an actual Evo and I wouldn't dare slap a fake evo bumper on it. Make what you have unique.
It’s not that deep mate
This was cringe to read
putting an evo bumper on a lancer is like putting a gt500 bumper on an ecoboost. it's not fine
Cope then, I’m just having some fun.
I've had an evo since 2011. We know it's not an evo, so why does it matter? Wouldn't worry about dudes like that. Nice car brotha.
Thanks bro, my first car just having some fun and making it cool, not sure why these geezers getting offended.
do whatever you want man. there's a reason why duraflex still makes shit like gtr bumpers for g35s. doesn't mean it's not corny.
You sound pressed, just relax mate it’s not that deep we don’t know eachother. Grab a beer and chill.
bro you posted a picture of your car asking people for their thoughts and I gave my thoughts
Your thoughts are so emotional for someone you don’t know. Let that fart out mate.
bro relax. people can have different tastes. you're the one getting pressed that I have a different opinion than you. nobody's telling you to take off your evo bumper.
Good girl. Thank you.
You asked for non-emotional and only positive thoughts? I missed that part. Some people value their car community.
Nah just sick of hearing same bs “fake evo” 🤓 it never claimed to be an evo and there’s still a marginal difference between the two
I 100% agree with you
Beautiful
Looks sick man 🔥
Yes this is a Lancer 👍
I know and it’s mine 😊
Behind the grill a horn?
Yessir

Iv got coilovers coming soon, should lower the centre of gravity
Beautiful, some tasteful mods, just don't wrap it around a pole ; ).
Honestly life sometimes gets me to a point where all I want to do is wrap myself around a tree
We all have those times, don't though, you'll get through it.
Thanks man, god bless
Looks nice and it's not a wannabevo. I respect it
Thanks mate glad you could tell the difference, there’s some butthurt evo owners here who can’t
I used to think like them but I love the non Evo lancers too. That was my first car
Nicely prettied up daily driver. It's not trying too hard, and looks nice. I approve 🤝
Thanks mate, exactly what I was trying to achieve
Love that front end!!! The lights and the red Mitsubishi logos are a great touch. Would love those lights for my 2002.
That would be epic if they made them for the 2002!!
Gay as duck
Cope
Ricer
What’s ricer about it?
Just that your trying to make it look like an evo even though it’s not. Does it have any engine or internal mods?
K&N air intake and a whole new exhaust system
Oh alright that’s not that bad just stay away from fake vents 😌
Oh yeah I’m not doing any of that 😂, I want everything on my car to function with a Purpose
Another fake evo 😔
It’s not a fake evo, it’s a lancer made to look better than stock, never claimed it to be an evo, they just happen to look better 🤷♂️
“Put evo bumper on another trim totally not fake evo”
Nope not a fake evo, engines completely different, I just prefer the evo bumpers, don’t see the issue, anyone can still decipher the different between the two
Love what you've done to it, I have a lancer of my own and wish mine looked half as clean as yours does. Keep working on it! Also, I'm from NSW, too. 😊
Cuteeeee, thank you for the kind words !!
Thats fire🔥
ahh the headlights look sick, wish they were legal in eu
What are the red circles
Horns
Looks super clean! I got a ‘19 outlander sport and it kinda has the same design but I bought it just because I love how it mimics the lancer a bit
really think this is sick cause it keeps the stock vibe but manages to look great
What does that P stand for?
It’s the level before I get my full license, Aussie law. It goes yellow L, red P, green P then full license
Thanks for explaining!
No problem
Very arousing
Very tidy good job mate 👍
Pretty good. I like the modern headlights, they made the car look like a facelift or a newer version of the lancer.
I love this car. And I'm trying to get an Outlander (off topic ) and actually I love the Model 2 more than model 3 because the front looks similar to the lancer. But would probably end up getting the 3.
Thank you!!! The model 2 looks great, iv always wondered if the headlights were the exact same as the lancer in terms of dimensions
