Lately I have been looking into buying my first car. Its more so an obsession now since I’m on clubcj.net every day looking at pictures, DIYs, reviews, experiences, modding etc. I wasn’t really into the car scene, but up until the urge to get my own car, I’ve been researching so much. The pic above is just a reference pic I have saved for what I want my car to look like minus the Chrome grill surround at the front. I think my colour scheme will be Black and Blue, or Black and Red.
For reference for myself this is what I want to achieve in the long run:
Car:
Black Lancer SX w/ standard features (minus bluetooth because its useless = $450 cheaper!)
Addons during purchase (additions I hope to get from the dealer (free or something)):
- Footwell/floor illumination for both passenger and driver side (or cheaper from CCJ installed by Concord Customs)
- Scuff plates
- Mats
- Car seat covers
- Maybe headlight/bonnet protectors if I can
Addons down the track when I have saved enough, or have time:
- Angel eyes

- LED Tail Lights (DO WANT).
- Black rims (will be painting the stock rims black… saves about $800 for now)
- Plate relocation
- Front air dam extension (X-factor parts)
- Side air dam extension (X-factor parts)
- OR Ralliart Parts
In regards to performance, I’m satisfied with how it is atm, maybe throw an air filter in for kicks.
And I have most of my expenses worked out if this is thrown into my monthly payments. I’m pretty sure I can manage. The mod bug has bitten me before I even have the damn thing!
