Paint is in great condition! How many miles? Strange the trunk stickers are light silver bc white cars got the dark silver ones. Unless it was different for Spyders for some stranger reason.

Oh, I thought it was maybe that one! Congrats! I think yours then the burgundy 2gb GSX that sold on Cars & Bids last year are the two highest-price (best) DSM examples I've seen. Such a good value still though IMO. I've seen a few other 2g's of the same caliber on FB Marketplace and Cars.com in...

Well this is basically as clean as they come nowadays! Where did you find it? Facebook Marketplace? Love the black leather, factory mud guards, super well preserved red paint. Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous.

Surprised it only took you six months to find. Where did you end up finding it? Facebook Marketplace? Seems to be the hottest spot for DSM sales nowadays.

Thanks but nah the owner of that site doesn't actually keep inventory updated. They don't have it. I ordered through them and my order was cancelled due to unavailability.

1995-96 Front Bumper Mitsubishi Emblem: MB882511Update: I can't find anyone w/ this part. Many sites say they have it but they cancel my order after they realize they don't have it/can't get it.Really don't want to go aftermarket. Guess I'll just sit on eBay watching for one.

Dang, I respect your research skills! PS I have a part-time work-from-home research position open at my company so if you're interested in a ~15h week research position, let me know.I thought I had the 2ga emblem in the bag but the website just cancelled the order and marked it on their...

2) Are you sure this is the right badge for a 2ga? I've seen two sites saying this is for 2gb.MB882511 seems to be the one I need. Everyone uses the same 2ga diagram which makes it confusing but I think Mitsu just didn't publish 2gb diagrams since the important parts are basically unchanged...

Thanks, I appreciate it a ton!!! Time to buy.

1. The window trim above the driver's side window. You know, the bit that always fades and warps in the sun. 2. The Mitsu badge for the front bumper cover of a 2ga (it's smaller than the 2gb badge). 3. The Mitsu sticker that goes on the hatch.Would love to track these down but also don't want...

I hope the new owner is taking great care of it! What a gem!!!!! So incredibly rare.

Do you have a front emblem for a 2ga Eclipse by chance? Missing one on the car I just bought.

I've never seen blue leather and I've been into DSMs since 2005. Could be gray and the camera is playing tricks but seems blue to me.

Hey, I just moved to Frisco earlier this year. Would be cool to see some fellow DSMs. Only DSM activity I've had since down here was I looked at a bone stock 2ga AWD Talon w/ like 60k on the clock. It was in McKinney.

Thanks for reading. Here's what I'm after:1) Must be Saronno red (it's the bright red that's pretty common). 2) Must be a manual. 3) Must be a 2gb. 4) Must have either the tan/black or black/grey interior (so just not a full grey interior). 5) Must be a driver. Not too clean, not a shell. 6)...

If you're going to get a 3s instead of a DSM, make sure you want it at least what... 30% more? Because that's how much more everything will cost.

Yeah totally different engines. But good call making a supply list. Doing a proper head gasket and timing belt change means lots of small things to buy: lube when reassembling head, copper coating for head gasket, new intake plenum gaskets or exhaust gaskets I forget which you shouldn't reuse...

Remember safety. I think there's a side crash test rating of a 2g somewhere on YouTube and it ain't pretty. Evo I suppose is safer for your child. I used to not care much about safety but no one expects to get in a car crash. Being laid up for weeks wouldn't be cool. Or worse. Not to be too...

I have one and I definitely know the feeling. After reading 2gnt for more than two minutes I, like you, have of course decided it's definitely not worth modding. I wonder how many of these are left... hopefully yours still is.

Interesting to hear there was an anniversary edition on a lot more than a year after it was built. I ran a lot of VINs for anniversary editions and came to the conclusion they were all built in May '99 -- between the 1st and about the 20th if I remember right. Unless there was a big delay...

Hey guys,I need a roof rack for my 2g so I can carry my bicycle (large frame hybrid). I need something that'll fit such a small car as well as something that won't mar the paint/window trim. And of course I'm trying to get everything I want for the lowest price possible. I'll only have the...

Dang - the paint looks to be in really good condition. No side skirt fade. Has it been resprayed?

You guys were right. The wave came out naturally after about a week of it being off the car. Thank you!

On the driver's side fender, there's a bolt that will not budge. It's one of the bolts that holds on the front bumper. It's very rusted. I've spent multiple attempts trying to pull it out (busted nut off) with PB blaster and vice scripts and nothing works. So I thought I could weld a nut on the...

Love the wheel fitment. And IMO, if you feel confident tearing down the engine for piston rings, adding a turbo to a 4g63 wouldn't be much scarier. Just be sure to research a lot before attempting. Because that's when things get hard - when you plan poorly and things break.I'd totally freak...

Sweet hopefully. Mine has been this way for at least 3 years if I understood the PO correctly. Will report back with what happens. Should go well.

It's off the car and ready to be dealt with. I have a torch I can use. Do I need to press it down in any way for it to take shape again? Or will just heating it be good enough? Should I just encourage it with my hands?That's what she said.

Hey,The previous owner caught the bumper on a parking cement bumper thing. When she backed up, it tweaked the bumper causing a crack and a wave to appear in the center. How can I fix this? Could I heat it up, attach a few wood clamps and hope it stays? Or should I attach wood clamps and then...

Hey all,My '99 has a lot of little cosmetic things I'd like fixed:2" crack and a scrape on front bumper side skirts need repainted a little strut tower surface rusta few other little thingsThe car is a '99 NT. Obviously I can't spend too much money but if anyone knows of someone who's...

The dash color is that rare tan/brown color too.

That's awesome when kind acts have a way of coming back to help you as well.The car looks fantastic - even the slightly dirty engine bay. Looks like an honest kind of dirty. And those headlamps... perfect! You can tell it never spent too much time out in the sun.Looks like her balljoint must...

I too am a massive fan of original DSMs. Keep up the good work and the excellent storytelling!

Thank you both!

Hi guys,My ball joint broke and sent the wheels careening into the front fenders. One fender is tweaked (will try to fix - need to research more on that surely someone has done it for a 2g) and the other fender is fine. But the side skirt blocks - for lack of a better term - are smashed in. I...

Good find. I once sold a Talon 2gb bumper cover for $400.

Money > ThingsAlways. Read books about personal finance. Or listen to them on audiobooks. Find them for free via the library, online, wherever. Hearing multiple people tell you this will make it stick in your own head. Extending yourself to buy an EVO will not lead to success. Focus on what...

+1 I'm actually so enamored by electric vehicles that I could definitely see making my car electric once the price of batteries drops dramatically (and the size too).

That thing should be as quiet as a Tesla!

The door panels often go squeaky. You can use graphite on the inside of the door panel or even spray foam to add rigidity, thus reduce the squeaks. Search for it on the forums and you'll find what I'm talking about. I used graphite a few months ago and it helped quite a bit. Messy application...

I'm thinking about moving to Mexico for a year - maybe more. I looked on a few Mexican car sites and it seems like there are a few DSMs down there. They seem to sell for about the same price as in the States. I may get one when I'm down there, not sure.Anyway, is anyone from Mexico? Are there...

Definitely clean. I'd say go for it at any price under $4k. That'll give you room to buy a set of aftermarket bronze wheels. Those look phenomenal of a Barcelona red pearl DSM. Then you could keep the (valuable) chromies safe.

I pulled the seats out of my '99 10th Anniversary Edition Eclipse the other day. After unbolting, when I pulled up on the drivers side seat, it wouldn't come. I looked closer and that's because one of the two wiring harnesses was actually plugged into the seat.When I reinstalled the seat, I...

I got a set of basics for my mom's SUV. They began curling right away. Very disappointed.

Hood bulge, hood bulge, hood bulge!!!

Oh, the way I understood (misunderstood) your answer was that once a module is disconnected, the car will throw the code until the dealer clears it.

Good to hear!
