Before and After

[KingSwift82]

Hello everyone.

I've been on here for awhile but I haven't officially introduced my self to the site. This thread will also introduce my car and some of the stages that it's been through for the past year and a half. Here are some pics, enjoy!

looks good... just grab some door caps and you'll be set!

The 2gb conversion came out pretty good but I don't like the wheels.

 

[crimsondragon]

Those are Galant wheels. He told me in person. I thought they look pretty sweet.

I actually had the door caps, but I chipped one of them up opening the door and I took them both off and had them sitting around. So a friend of mine bought them from me because his car got wrecked and he needed a set. But in time I'll get my hands on some, thanks.

 

[KingSwift82]

Thanks bro.

Yeah man i love those wheels, it looks alot better than those god-awful RS wheels i had.

 

[EsiGoneT-Esi]

I like the wheels.... kinda reminds me of te37's

kinda reminds me of te37's

How so? They look nothing like them.

Looks good. The wheels dont look bad either, I actually like them.

 

[KingSwift82]

Thanks for the compliments guys. They would look a whole lot better if my car was clean.

I've got one more shot of the wheel.

P.S. - I need some sidemarker lenses (BAD!) because I sold mine to a friend.
He lost his in a car accident and somehow they just popped out of his bumper. That's one thing I don't like about this car, it's so easy for someone to steal those things or sometimes if you hit a bump hard enough the thing is hanging out.

I dont like the wheels either but nice car tho

 

[GofaST4life]

you can get some cheap clear side marker light housing of eBay, thats where i got mine.

car looks good, i do like the wheels.

 

[sirsol66]

Sidemarkers should be easy to find, try a junkyard or just ebay.

I like the shape of the wheels, just not the color. Perhaps mask off the lip and shoot it a dark graphite color that you had? Polished lip and a graphite wheel should look very nice on your color.

I see a missing lug nut there.

 

[EsiGoneT-Esi]

How so? They look nothing like them.

I guess because they are six spokes. Thats probably why I said "remind" and not "they look identical to"

 

[KingSwift82]

Good idea about changing the color, I might try that.

Yeah my lug nut is missing because I had wheel locks and the key got stripped. Going to get
a whole new set of lugs. With the sidemarkers, I think Im going to order some. What would look better,
clear or OEM amber? I like them both but what would you guys suggest?

 

[99 GST-R]

Clear, but thats just me. You'll like how it will kinda blend in with the silver paint. By the way where did you get the little Mitsu logo on the fender, I like it!

The 2gb conversion came out pretty good but I don't like the wheels.

What conversion? His car was already a 2gb, all he did was add side skirts to a non-sideskirt model.

 

[VPrime]

and spoiler

 

[vanilla gorilla]

His cars non turbo.
I dont really care for the turbo wings, on a turbo car or not.

 

[KingSwift82]

Yeah, the clears maybe a good way to go.

The logo's i got from ebay for about 6-7 bucks a piece. I thought it would add some taste to the car. I have a N/T(RS) so cosmetic wise it needed all the exterior taste it can get. Plus you don't see any eclipse's with that logo that's why i call it my RS "Special Edition" because my car doesn't look like your average RS. Everyone I talk to thinks it's a GS or a GS-T due to me having a sunroof as well.

EBAY huh? I think your car's tight, keep up the good work!

No need to state the obvious here dude. He knew exactly what I meant and so did the other members who didn't have to point out the obvious like you did. Take a look at the year of my car and then go look at my pics and tell me if I dont know what a 2gB conversion is. People these days I tell you...... instead of leaving a comment about the guy's car you somehow got to a comment that I left.

 

[vanilla gorilla]

Must not have been too obvious......
If you dont want to be corrected, dont say wrong stuff.
And you dont have to be a smart ass.

Thanks bro.
