    Icon10 HomeMade Galants Build Thread!!!

    Hey guys Im new here and new to mitsubishi. Name is Angel.

    well Alittle background.... never intended to choose/build a galant. Im a mechanic so i always knew they were reliable and easy to work on. so my cousin bought his brand new of the lot on 02(still has). and it began..... we rice it out Fast and furious mods.... then we turbo'ed.... then 5spd. so thts when it caught my eye. notice no one around here (central florida) has one clean and fast. so after a couple yrs and cars. i was on a hunt. I LIKE TO BE DIFFERENT AND STAND OUT. since my cousin gave up on his and tryed to push him to build it and clean it up. try to buy it but been his first car and close to his heart didnt gave it up. so i came across GOBLIN. I gotta tell u is has been the best 1,000 i had ever spend.

    Enough bla bla bla.... next day at home

    decent exterior.(cheap maaco job)
    nasty ass interior.(has been pressure washed/clean)











    Just like every other 4G64 lol

    Car is looking good. I think that lip sets it off nicely. I plan on getting one eventually. Personally, I think there is too much difference in color between your heads and fogs. If your going with yellow fogs then I think a white hid would have looked better in the heads. Just my thought. That's were I'm going with mine.

    I remember when you posted those fogs a while back, still diggin them and as well as those wheels. If you got the money to spare, I'd say go for it unless you have your eyes on something else. They suit the G nicely imo.

    As far as the fogs and hid color diff..to be honest imo, any kelvin lower than 6000k makes yellow fogs stand out too much. I also feel like white cars and black cars pull it off best. I currently have yellow fog bulbs w/ clear housings, but have had painted yellow housings too. I've also tried diff hid bulbs all in the range of 4300k to 10,000k. While 4300 had more usable light, I'd sacrifice that for at least 6000k just so the headlights don't look plain in comparison to the fogs.

    I know that contradicts more recent posts were I say I wanna try 4300 or 5000k hids again (currently run 6000k), but the thing is I have another set of led fog bulbs laying around that would match if I made that switch.

    Just something to think on I guess, I know everyone has diff taste in mods which I respect.

    Excited to see someone working on a Green G... most people here really don't like the color but I think it has a lot of potential especially if you just give it some personality...and with a Name like Goblin I think you are definitely doing that! My only thing I would say is color match the lip...I absolutely hate off colored lips but that's just me...welcome, looking forward to your build

    Put the big diesel turbo on it, go fast like Ricky Bobby lol!

    Seriously, car is coming along nicely, though I'd try to get leather seats or Katskins or replace the current ones or something, because the interior is beat to death.

    Great progress so far.
