i got a 96 eclipse gst... thinking about puttin on the blitz side skirts and rear bumper, then gettin a 97-99 front bumper with the rm chin spoiler projectors with real hids and puttin on my carbonfiber hood. i think the hood makes my car look like #@%#@%#@%#@% with my 96 bumper.. on yea my car is white.. and some 18' racing heart c2's just a idea of what i think im going to do..


PS. i picked up a 98 bumper off dsmtrader. well my 96 bumper looks 100 times better does anyone know a place i can get a good deal on a new oem front bumper the dealershiop here wants close to 500 and the stock headlights here are 600 each.

man, we cant really help you decide bro its whatever you want really, sounds like you got it made though...

although i did the conversion on my 96', it was very spendy, (since somone hit me, inshurance bought from the dealer), best thing to do is try dsmtrader.com or check the classifieds here for the bumpers, or even ebay.com....

They'll give you a good deal on a 97+ bumper.

Real HID lights look great. Get them for $350-$370 on EbayMotors. Get some that are 7000 Kelvan or higher. 7000 Kelvan will look purple/white and 8000 Kelvan will look Blue/white. They use 35watts of power as opposed to 55watts with normal (ugly) halogen bulbs


Places for cheap tires. 18 inch tire/rim sets can be bought from www.corzotire.com for $800 This is the cheapest I have found.

www.wheelmax.com
www.autoglitz.com (has 17 inch combo set for $679)

Conicelli Mitsubishi gives a 25% discount on DSM parts- if you ask for it. Front bumper= $260. If I had a 96 Eclipse GS-T I would just convert the front and rear bumpers, swap headlights, paint the gray part of the skirts and add a turbo wing and call it good. Body kits almost always look stupid.
