Mitsubishi Lancer 9 Tuning Parts — Page 33

For tuning the Lancer 9 (Mitsubishi Lancer IX 2004–2008, sedan and wagon) you can find chrome trim pieces, door sill plates, a fiberglass trunk lid spoiler for painting, window deflectors, fog lights, roof racks for a smooth roof, EVA mats, rubber and textile mats, as well as dashboard trim covers. Choose window deflectors and trunk mats for your body type: SD — sedan, SW — wagon. Parts are not interchangeable with the next generation Lancer X 2008-.

Vehicle-specific products include “Mitsubishi Lancer 9 2004-2008” in the name; universal items include the word “Universal”.

What’s the difference between sedan and wagon parts for the Lancer 9?

For some items, the body type matters. HIC window deflectors and trunk mats are sold separately for the sedan (SD) and the wagon (SW) because the window and trunk shapes are different. If the product name doesn’t include such a marking and you have a wagon, it’s better to confirm compatibility with a manager. One more thing: don’t confuse the Lancer 9 with the next generation — there is a separate page for Mitsubishi Lancer X 2008-. Parts between these bodies are not interchangeable, even if they look similar: the X has different rear glass, different bumpers and grilles.

Exterior tuning for the Lancer 9

• Chrome trim — window surrounds, trunk edge trim, mirror and door handle covers, turn signal repeater grille inserts. For mirrors, handles, and window surrounds you can choose the material: Italian stainless steel OmsaLine, Turkish steel Carmos, or chrome-plated plastic. Window surrounds are four pieces that stick over the lower edge of the windows: they are decorative and do not replace the rubber window seal. Trunk edge trim is a flat strip for the trunk lid, not a rear bumper cover.
• Door sill plates — several vehicle-specific 4-piece sets: Carmos V1 and V3 stainless steel and OmsaLine (Italian stainless steel with a more precise fit), as well as Flexill made of aluminum and plastic. They differ by manufacturer, pattern, and dimensions — see the specs of each set.
• Trunk lid spoiler — fiberglass, for painting in body color. Like any fiberglass part, it should be test-fitted on the car first, then sanded, primed, and painted, and installed with windshield adhesive/sealant — this is more reliable than using only double-sided tape. Other spoilers are universal.
• Window deflectors HIC — polycarbonate, a 4-piece set with tape mounting, available separately for sedan and wagon.
• Roof rack for a smooth roof — crossbars mount on a smooth roof; before choosing, compare your roof’s maximum width with the kit specifications.
• Fog lights — a vehicle-specific set of halogen lights for factory mounting locations. Check it against the bumper actually installed on your car: after a bumper swap, the mounting points may be different.

In the body kits section, front bumper lip add-ons, rear diffusers, and side skirt add-ons are mostly universal. They don’t replicate the Lancer 9 bumper shape one-to-one, so before ordering, compare the add-on length with your bumper width and test-fit the part before installation.

What mats and dashboard trims are available for the Lancer 9 interior?

Floor mats for the Lancer 9 are available in three materials:

• EVA — Digital Designs in-house production, a 5-piece interior set in several colors, plus separate trunk mats for sedan and wagon. EVA is not rubber; it’s a lightweight honeycomb material: it doesn’t let moisture through, while dirt and snow stay in the cells. It’s easy to maintain — shake out, rinse, brush the cells if needed, and dry; avoid sharply bending the mat.
• Rubber and polyurethane — Stingray Premium, Polytep, Carsuit, as well as Stingray 3D polyurethane. Softer and more flexible than EVA.
• Textile — Classic, Premium, and Deluxe lines for the cabin, plus textile trunk mats for SD and SW.

Many customers choose EVA or textile for the cabin and a separate rubber or EVA trunk mat. For the dashboard, there are Meric dashboard trim covers in two versions: V1 in several finishes (titanium, wood, carbon, aluminum) and V2 wood-look. The decor matches a specific dash configuration, so before ordering, confirm yours: manual or automatic, 1-DIN or 2-DIN head unit, and the type of climate control panel. The covers stick on top of the factory plastic without removal. In the interior accessories section you’ll find armrests, shift boot covers, organizers, and other small items.

How are trim pieces, window deflectors, and the spoiler mounted?

Chrome trim, door sill plates, dashboard trim covers, and window deflectors are mounted with double-sided tape: wash and degrease the surface and install in warm conditions so the adhesive holds properly. Adhesive/sealant for the spoiler is not always included — see the product package contents.
