Hey guys, I'm pretty new to this site and car ownership in general. This is my first car, a 2003 Mitsubishi Eclipse GTS in the Steel Blue Pearl color. Bought it used in June 2010 with 89,000 miles on it. I'm 18, and it is my first car. Overall, it was in pretty good condition when I got it. Some rust is starting to form on the hatch and some clear coat is peeling, but otherwise, it's good.

Modifications
Exterior:
Tinted OEM tail lights and reverse lights.
EBay black housed projector headlights with angel eyes/halos.
Performance
AEM Short Ram Air Intake
All of the modifications were done by my father and I, and was the first time either of us has done these specific modifications to a car, so they are probably not perfect.
Future Plans (Money permitting)
Exterior
Clear turn signals with amber bulbs
New H1 light bulbs for headlights
Maybe new wheels
Maybe a paint job (I hate the light blue color)
Interior
Upgraded sound system
Sparco Carbon Shift Knob
Megan Racing Short Throw Shifter
Performance
Cat-back exhaust. (Custom or pre-made, haven't decided yet.)
Everything needed to lower the car.
Any questions, comments, concerns, and constructive criticisms are welcome. This is my first car and first time modifying a car, so any recommendations from you guys would be most appreciated.
