well i got one bolt on each fender, one on the rad support, and i took bolt and screwed it right into the crash bar, so shes solid lol!,

ontop of that the passenger headlight as 3/4 bolts in, drivers headlight has 4/4, the hood has all 4 bolts and is straight where it should be. drivers fender has all of its bolts last i remember, however the passenger fender only has bolts near the door, none up front.
oh and the grill has like 4 zip-ties holding it in lol

Bro Im sure you tried, but I wouldnt drive that out of the driveway like that. U hit a bad dip or speed bump and its a wrap! Not safe driving like that, not to mention the cops might pull you over for that too.

[bdevx]

Bro Im sure you tried, but I wouldnt drive that out of the driveway like that. U hit a bad dip or speed bump and its a wrap! Not safe driving like that, not to mention the cops might pull you over for that too.

im usually not one to argue about something, epecially not on the internet, but every so often a post comes up somewhere where i gotta call the person out.

speed bumps, dips, potholes, dirt roads, and hopping off curbs have all been done in this car in the past two weeks wince ive had the bumper on. and to be honest my bumper is probably more likely to stay on then half the zip-tied hondas running on the streets today.

everything you see in these pics that looks wrong, or half done, or like its just asking to come apart is actually that way because its the way it would stay on. the only reason it looks bad is because i have a minimum wage job so i cant afford the luxury of an aesthetically pleasing front end. however if you've happened to browse the "how many miles on your G" thread, you would know this car has less than 50,000 miles so the engine is top notch, and for the less than $1000 it took to get it on the road, its the best damn car i could ask for.

and not to mention the cops can pull me over for it, but cant do anything about it because its street legal and considered safe by the DMV, trust me, it took me 2 months to get this thing to a point where i was confident it would pass all its inspections. as far as the law is concerned i could remove the bumper, grill, and hood, and run it with just headlights and fenders, and the cops still have no reason to pull me over

so to everyone: Its not about looks, its about function. if you have a comment to say to be funny, so be it, but if your gunna say some crap about it not being safe, or a POS, that just a dick thing to do...

now im sorry if anyone thinks this post is out of line or disrespectful, but insults to my car is out of line IMO. criticism is one think, but if your just gunna bag on it, type it out and delete it, it has no place here.

now to keep in line with the topic of this thread, heres a pic right before the inspections the car went through (that it passed)

[jimmy_o2]

In Ivory G defense, he wasn't talking crap. He basically letting you know the car is not 100% safe to drive on the streets just yet. (I think u need to re read what he wrote Seriously)


hopping off curbs have all been done in this car in the past two weeks
You just asking for trouble aren't ya!!! Dont forget you make minimum wage, I don't think u can afford putting more money in the car because of your lack or should i say ignorance towards the Galant.


as far as the law is concerned i could remove the bumper, grill, and hood, and run it with just headlights and fenders, and the cops still have no reason to pull me over
Really I think u need to double check the Vehicle safety code for CA, because yes a cop can pull you over a write you a citation for unsafe vehicle If u drive with out a hood in the state of California.


so to everyone: Its not about looks, its about function. if you have a comment to say to be funny, so be it, but if your gunna say some crap about it not being safe, or a POS, that just a dick thing to do...
Again he was just pointing out the car dose not look safe to drive and I have to admit i agree with him!!! Theres alot of information on this site and we are all here to help each other... No need to get all butt hurt he was just letting you know the car looks unsafe!!!!


now im sorry if anyone thinks this post is out of line or disrespectful, but insults to my car is out of line IMO. criticism is one think, but if your just gunna bag on it, type it out and delete it, it has no place here.
Im sorry but i still don't see how he was out of line, tho i do see you getting out of line about someone concerned about your safety and the safety of others and you possibly causing more damage to your car...


now to keep in line with the topic of this thread, heres a pic right before the inspections the car went through (that it passed)
Con grads, Now take that Hood off and go get it inspected like you mention earlier and see if you pass ;)

Now Back on topic !!

i honestly dont understand what about this car you are saying is unsafe, if your pointing out the way the bumper is sagging have you read anything else ive posted? its not just hanging there, is that far down because its bolted that way to make it stay on the car. and like ive said, everything is bolted on except for the grill. but if you see something i dont please let me know, ive just done it the best and safest i could get it so that i have the car on the road and transportation to work

as a side note, when i said "hopping off curbs" i realize now that i gave the wrong impression, i dont mean just going on and off some sidewalk, i meant specifically like when your leaving a shopping center and take the turn to sharp and go over the edge of the curb with a tire or two. sorry for any confusion on that.

dang. now i know why we had to spend 2k to remove a huge tree right next to our house.

[midnight]

we told the city 1 year ago that we wanted that tree out

[wetamup2k3g]

I can't find any law on it, but I know they want hoods on cars for pedestrian safety, if you hit someone the hood softens the blow, protects them from getting burned, and keeps them from having their fingers mangled by the belts like WhiteGalant (what's up, Fred!). I can't come up with a link to back that up ATM, will find it when I get home.

Seriously? You got everything all wrong, actually backwards.

Ivory_G isn't here to insult you about your car, he is only helping you. He's giving you his opinion, and some words of wisdom that could even save your life. You obviously dont know us very well, because were here to HELP you and not Judge you.

That is the whole reason why we post pictures of our G's here, that's what this thread is for. We post pictures and we get others opinions, comments, feedback etc. If you don't like what someone else has to say about your pic, then don't reply or even better - don't even bother posting in this thread.

We are not here to point fingers at people or make fun of anyone, regardless of how much money you make or where you come from.

im usually not one to argue about something, epecially not on the internet, but every so often a post comes up somewhere where i gotta call the person out.

Since you seem to feel you can call someone out on this forum, allow me to do the same.

Number one... No one here was being a dick. Until now.

You can take your argument about Hondas being ziptied together and throw that bullshit right out the window. That has no legs to stand on in this discussion.

I don't care what the actual law says about your car being safe. Your car is a hazard on the road.

Your bumper is sagging down and looks like its attached with bubble gum. There have been hundreds of cars on this forum that have swapped bumpers or replaced broken bumpers with new ones, and everyone I have seen have been able to secure them normally using the original locations they bolt into. Except for you.

Your hood looks like its open, so your attempt to secure it correctly failed miserably. Again, many people here have removed or swapped hoods with much better success than you. Your hood has such a large gap that its a possiblity that wind while driving could rip it right off of the car.

I pray to God that if you are on the freeway going 70, your hood doesn't fly off your car causing an accident that kills someone.

I do applaud you for taking the time and effort to try and rebuild the car, but your work so far is completely beyond sub-par. In my opinion, your car is an embarrassment to not only the Galant community, but to all car enthusiasts.

The car is a hazard, and could cause accidents and injuries to yourself and other people on the road. You can take that as criticism or an insult, but its the truth. If that makes me a dick, then good, because you need to hear it from someone.

[polishmafia]

You say in the last few weeks you've hopped off curbs, like in your description above. That is not normal for most people with a driver's license. Let me add this bit of advice... Learn how to drive. Especially in a parking lot. *sigh*

as you can see in the image, the bumper mounting location (in red) is surrounded by damage (green) i didnt just have a broken bumper/lose my bumper. i couldnt physically mount the bumper to that location without the passenger side sticking out ~3". which would you prefer? i bolt it like stock in the front so the side can stick out, or bolt it like stock on the side and then bolt striaght into the crashbar like i did? i will reiterate this for anyone in the future, everything is BOLTED TO THE CAR except for the grille. the bumper is not "sagging" it is FORCED into that position to secure it to the vehicle

the "large gap" you speak of with the hood is actually wrong. the light is pushed slightly down and inwards, and the driver side fender is pushed outwards. the hood is actually striaght, fully shut, and in stock position, everything you see that doesnt align is do to the accident. the hood is no more of a risk than someone driving with no grill. and to be honest i dont even drive on the freeway anyways. i have no need to go anywhere far to necessitate freeway driving

also polish, im not the only person who drives this car, im married to the woman who wrecked it in the first place 2 year ago. shes still a skidish driver. and i dont make a habit of hopping on or off curbs, but when you live on a major street like i do turning into your house is sometimes safer if you skip up a inch on the edge of the driveway instead of being plowed from behind at 60.

and again, ive already apologized, i just snapped before i took the time to fully understand all that Ivory was saying. i can almost swear i remember Ivory from the old galant forums prophet used to run. i know full well hes not one to just insult someone. but i just went off and then later realized i was the one being the dick not him and have already stated it.

Random facts:

here in Texas there is no law stating you need a hood.

another funny law here in texas is that you don't need a front windshield, BUT you need windshield wipers, LOL.

What I don't understand is you have a minimum wage job, and "can't fix your car properly" but can do a shitty job on (attempting) repairing the car and afford a aftermarket hood. Priorities, learn and use them to your budget.

Seriously? You got everything all wrong, actually backwards.

Ivory_G isn't here to insult you about your car, he is only helping you. He's giving you his opinion, and some words of wisdom that could even save your life. You obviously dont know us very well, because were here to HELP you and not Judge you.

That is the whole reason why we post pictures of our G's here, that's what this thread is for. We post pictures and we get others opinions, comments, feedback etc. If you don't like what someone else has to say about your pic, then don't reply or even better - don't even bother posting in this thread.

We are not here to point fingers at people or make fun of anyone, regardless of how much money you make or where you come from.

Lol ragee.


Since you seem to feel you can call someone out on this forum, allow me to do the same.

Number one... No one here was being a dick. Until now.

You can take your argument about Hondas being ziptied together and throw that bullshit right out the window. That has no legs to stand on in this discussion.

I don't care what the actual law says about your car being safe. Your car is a hazard on the road.

Your bumper is sagging down and looks like its attached with bubble gum. There have been hundreds of cars on this forum that have swapped bumpers or replaced broken bumpers with new ones, and everyone I have seen have been able to secure them normally using the original locations they bolt into. Except for you.

Your hood looks like its open, so your attempt to secure it correctly failed miserably. Again, many people here have removed or swapped hoods with much better success than you. Your hood has such a large gap that its a possiblity that wind while driving could rip it right off of the car.

I pray to God that if you are on the freeway going 70, your hood doesn't fly off your car causing an accident that kills someone.

I do applaud you for taking the time and effort to try and rebuild the car, but your work so far is completely beyond sub-par. In my opinion, your car is an embarrassment to not only the Galant community, but to all car enthusiasts.

The car is a hazard, and could cause accidents and injuries to yourself and other people on the road. You can take that as criticism or an insult, but its the truth. If that makes me a dick, then good, because you need to hear it from someone.

Ah this brings back memories of when I was new and everyone tore me a new one (no homo) lol. anywho, This x2.


Dude it looks like you have frame damage. I'm not coming on an attack, either. Take it to a body shop, and see if they can straighten it out. Nothing will fit right til you do.

Bdevx I hope you get your car up and running buddy, best of luck to you.


Random facts:

here in Texas there is no law stating you need a hood.

another funny law here in texas is that you don't need a front windshield, BUT you need windshield wipers, LOL.

lolwtf really? That's retarded.

On a side note, your car is looking good.

[4g63lover]

So you bolted the headlights on and the rest of the front without correcting the rest of the STRUCTURAL components underneath it?

IDK how in the world that is safe. Everytime metal is flexed beyond its flex points, it becomes weaker, I hope you dont get into an accident.

[bdevx]

What I don't understand is you have a minimum wage job, and "can't fix your car properly" but can do a shitty job on (attempting) repairing the car and afford a aftermarket hood. Priorities, learn and use them to your budget.


well lets put it this way, the quote to take it to a body shop and get it done properly is in the range of 6 grand. as far as the CF hood, i looked around at every junk yard and pull a part within a reasonable driving distance (didnt have a car at the time so had to get rides from family and friends) and called several others in surrounding towns, nobody had a hood, or it was wrecked and crumpled so it was no good. so i put posts up on craigslist looking for that damn part, only reply i got was from someone who had that CF hood and would sell it to me for $70, lowest i could find on the internet was like $100 not including shipping and dealer wanted over $500. my priority was to get the parts i needed to make it look not as destroyed so that i could drive to work, a hood was one of those parts so i found one for a price that seemed right, just so happens i got carbon fiber in the process lol

I completely agree with this and what Pete said, I've gone over a curb accidentally maybe 2x and it was when I was in my truck which could drive off and on the sidewalk like it was a minor speed bump. My car got in an accident this past winter and I currently have no job, but my shit is all sitting on it better. It may be road legal, but if your bumper drops off and you run it over it can cause you to spear into another car, or spin at high speeds and then someone T-bones your ass. Not only will it be your fault, but someone else may have to live with the regret of what can come of the accident. Ride your bike to work and take the car off the road, stop paying for the insurance and gas and you will have much more spending money, honestly fixing this car right can be done with like a summers worth probably less of working minimum wage. Then you earn respect from the members here and aren't raging cause someone voiced an opinion about your workmanship.

The reason nothing will fit right is because when you were in the wreck, there was damage to the whole front clip. The frame is tweaked, i can almost guarantee it. I think your problems have just begun. Unless the frame is pull/straightened out, you will have problems. There are underlying issues that need to be fixed BEFORE you put all the sheet metal back on.

[IVORY_G]

im usually not one to argue about something, epecially not on the internet, but every so often a post comes up somewhere where i gotta call the person out.

speed bumps, dips, potholes, dirt roads, and hopping off curbs have all been done in this car in the past two weeks wince ive had the bumper on. and to be honest my bumper is probably more likely to stay on then half the zip-tied hondas running on the streets today.

everything you see in these pics that looks wrong, or half done, or like its just asking to come apart is actually that way because its the way it would stay on. the only reason it looks bad is because i have a minimum wage job so i cant afford the luxury of an aesthetically pleasing front end. however if you've happened to browse the "how many miles on your G" thread, you would know this car has less than 50,000 miles so the engine is top notch, and for the less than $1000 it took to get it on the road, its the best damn car i could ask for.

and not to mention the cops can pull me over for it, but cant do anything about it because its street legal and considered safe by the DMV, trust me, it took me 2 months to get this thing to a point where i was confident it would pass all its inspections. as far as the law is concerned i could remove the bumper, grill, and hood, and run it with just headlights and fenders, and the cops still have no reason to pull me over

so to everyone: Its not about looks, its about function. if you have a comment to say to be funny, so be it, but if your gunna say some crap about it not being safe, or a POS, that just a dick thing to do...

now im sorry if anyone thinks this post is out of line or disrespectful, but insults to my car is out of line IMO. criticism is one think, but if your just gunna bag on it, type it out and delete it, it has no place here.

now to keep in line with the topic of this thread, heres a pic right before the inspections the car went through (that it passed)

Like the other members said Bro you were being over-sensitive & took what I said way out of context. I couldve very well have clowned the Shit out of your car, but thats not what was I was doing at all. Bcz Ive been in the situation where my car was damaged and I had no money to fix it right away. Fortunately my job was close enough that I could bike it to work until I was able to afford parts fix my car. Then an unnamed member on here decides to try and hustle me for some parts I purchsed from him, which I never recieved. I had to fight to get my money back & yet again try and purhase the parts to get my car back on the road; which prolonged the process even longer. So I know where youre coming from.

Like I said, "I could tell you tried..." meaning you were making due with what resources and money you have available. I dont think anyone on this forum would choose to drive there car looking like that if they had the choice. I was ony looking out for your best interest, not trying to make "light" of your car like others did.

It would be worthwhile to get the crash protection returned to its intended structural integrity. This can be done with relative ease by replacing the front crash bar and front radiator support. Though, if a body shop gave you an estimate for $6000 that car is basically totaled and it would be worthwhile to get rid of it and buy another Galant that is undamaged.

Just my opinion on this....I would do what 03-Galant-ES said and take it off the road. Save the money from the gas and the insurance along with a little extra and drop the engine from the car. Sell the shell to the junkyard , look on craigslist or wherever and find another G without a motor,blown head gasket, something anything thats wrong with the engine and buy it. Long as its pretty cheap and drop your engine into that one. Find a cheap mechanic who will do it on the side. When i blew my head gasket my guy changed my engine out for $500. Runs like new now

If you are mechanically inclined you should remove as much as you can before the car is junked. Do you have insurance to cover it?

I think you guys need to give bdevx a break. He said it's securely bolted to the car. Okay. Rad support is bent up, be his still has his crash bar. Okay.

Some people on here drive without crash bars and some people apply rear visors with only double sided tape, and bumper lips with a few screws and double sided tape. I guess these conditions are safe enough, since they are aesthetically pleasing. Hell, even bumpers and bumper lips held together with zip ties. You know what's funny is several people have posted about their visors flying off on the freeway, yet people still deem it safe.

Which do you think will cause more harm/damage if it flies off, a visor/lip or a hood/bumper? Not saying it makes it okay or better or worse either, its still not safe either. And for those who drive without a crashbar, thats just asking for it. I would never do that, at least get some kind of custom crashbar fabbed up...

Safety can be subjective, whats considered safe and securely bolted up, may not be safe or securely bolted down to someone else...

Exactly. Seeing as how he is the only one that has actually seen the car in person, and he bolted it up and deems it safe/won't fall off, then who are we to make judgments from the pictures?

[polishmafia]

I'm having trouble finding the validity of your post. You can defend the guy, but my posts still ring true to me.

[beam514]

It's all bolted down. If he tugs on it and it doesn't move, I'd say that it would stay. Reading back, the only thing that worries me is that it's bolted to the passenger side fender with one bolt, but that same fender isn't bolted up front. BUT the fender is a pretty strong piece of metal, so not like that's going to just snap off during normal driving.

Adrian, for once I will have to disagree with you.

It's not a matter of if parts are bolted up or not its a matter of structural integrity.

The chassis/unibody will flex at EVERY single turn, dip, bump, etc. Especially with the age of most 8G's on the road. The radiator support and everything around it being bent can cause the car to tweak itself while driving. It's Bent metal, it will never be as strong as before and is more of a hazard than a lip flying off or a visor flying off. The gaps within the body lines can get air under them and the hood could fly up without warning latched or not. I'm surprised it even drives straight. I've seen bent apron and radiator supports, there is no coming back for them. Especially on those front corner type collisions, because who knows how strong those spot welds that hold them together are after being subjected to an impact strong enough to bend the metal. IDK to me if you are driving it EVERYDAY, I would do it right if you cant afford it then either get rid of it and cut your losses or do it properly and take it off of the road 'til it is done right.. it seems too silly to risk your life and others because you didnt have the cash to get the front end straightened out.

You are right that it may all be adequately secured, but what will happen to that already damaged vehicle in a accident or under undo stress? Really not worth the risk, I'd part the car and buy another Galant.

ah, good point. But concerning the hood: He has hoodpins. I don't know if you've ever noticed, but even the stock hood flaps up and down while driving in heavy winds.

To everyone else that keeps referring to getting in an accident: I am not talking about getting in an accident. Obviously it is going to be less safe than if the chassis were in pristine condition. I think you guys are confusing what I am talking about here.

Still, what I don't understand is the people giving him crap about the chassis being unsafe in an accident. Why is he getting so much more flack than the guys that drive without airbags or crash bars?

Anyway I think I'm down arguing in here. Jigz does have a good point, in fact I think he has the most logical concerns. Some of the other concerns in here, I have to say, "not-so-much".

If you debadge the rear Mitsu and Galant emblem, I think you might like it much better. Also I think your valve cover would look better with the purple color you painted your other parts. Cant wait to see it with the paint finished...

[99galantES]

Idk thats a good ? I bought them from dronessurfboards a while back oem but they fit perfect no mods done it took a while to get everything since I wanted oem... And no I havent done the center caps lol but I cant take off the mitsu cuz the previous owner super glued it that when I started to takevit off my paint did too lol and as for the valve cover I have a another complete engine and ima do the writting in purple

99galantES, lookin' good fam! Some D2's would set that engine bay on fire!

[99galantES]

Thanks for the compliments ever since my car was down in october I started that purple scheme but what I did was paint the parts in chrome then throw on metalcast purple to give it that chrome purple look and D2's would look good but my car is low enough where you cant see the springs lol

99galantES The purple is nice. I've been painting stuff purple since I got the D2s. I'm still planing on painting my valve cover but I want to get a better one first. Check out the sig. I've even brought the touch of purple into it.lol

[99galantES]

Idk how I got into the purple but once I did I loved it all I need is purple lug nuts

[Corey2kG]

F THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nice Carlos. Better in person

[99 galant]

I think the lugs would look good. I really like those wheels on the car. I feel that the silver touch is much better on the beige than chrome. I had silver ADR Flite 5's on mine at one point.

[zobgel]

I agree, car is so much better in person. One of the cleanest engine bay I've ever seen. Nice car Carlos.

One of the cleanest Galants Ive seen! Some JDM heads would compliment that grille well. And colormatching the rear trunk garnish also. I love the shaved door handles and the interior is fly too.

hey excuse my ignorance everyone but what is the difference between the JDM rear bumper and the USDM rear bumper? I was going to order the extensions for off Cali's website but didnt know if i need the bumper also or if could just attach them to my original one

[QnzMostWanted]

u need the JDM bumper for the extensions, unless u wanna make a way for it to blend on ur own, the JDM bumper is shorter and much better looking than the USDM

[Fresh_617]

damn u got ur bumper on no problems??

Yea I did whats wrong with yours?[/QUOTE]

i jus texted corey about that too lol
but it seems like it dont fit with the crash bar on it doesnt connect to the car itself it feels like the bar is in the way

[99galantES]

Have you tried pushing it on?

[Fresh_617]

lmao noooooooo i mean holding it in my hand it feels so frail i didnt wanna mess it up lol did u push urs on???

[Galantman03]

^ you know you have to trim your rear crash bar, right?

[99galantES]

No I didnt mine went on like it was the usdm lol but like galantman03 said you might have to trim it

[Galantman03]

I know 99's fit nice, but idk what year fresh has, if he has an 02-03, I had to cut ALOT off lol

[Fresh_617]

yesss ughh i got the 03 -__- i think it would b less work to get a 99-01 model everything in the 02-03 was made much more harder =(

[Fresh_617]

since we on the topiccccc...galantman how hard was it for u to put ur new style bumper on im having trouble with fitment as well lol

[QnzMostWanted]

u gotta trim the "nose" bracket and the sides of the crashbar, remove the foam, and it should install just like any other bumper

[99galantES]

Or remove the front crash bar

i was going to do this but i am VERY scared i rather replace a bumper then mess up the engine if something minor backs into me

[Galantman03]

^ you have to cut the crash bar in half length wise, and get rid off that bottom have, and trim those weird ends off. Basically all you want left of the crash bar is the mounting brackets, and the top half of the bar.

pot of gold...right don't ask don't tell I gotcha :)

[8thLS6]

honestly I think it ruins the lower portion of the VRG bumper, which resembles the current Audi's :)

I think it would look pretty dope with the skirts if color matched..but still doesn't make as much of a statement as ur current setup imo. Which year/model lancer u get it off of. I wonder how it would look on my 02 bumbper and if I would need skirts to pull it off.

ROFL it looks good pulling the 7g

[Blue8g]

I don't see why you wouldn't trade.

Better mpg
Probably more comfortable
Better looking
Newer (Assuming on that one)

If towing is that important just buy a pos 90's diesel pick up

Mitch, for future reference, when your towing a car you definitely want the most load at the front of the trailer. Its just the way it was designed to carry the weight, it lets the trailer and the truck support the weight. Towing it with the car facing backwards puts a ton of strain on the trailer axles and alot of upward strain on the tongue and and hitch. If there was no motor in the car, you can get away with it, but normally dont ever do that, its very risky and it makes it substantially more difficult to control.

Yea I tried to load It the other way but there was a huge lip on the trailer that even with the coilover up all the way the bront bumper wouldn't clear so I had load it backwards.

Cody you have never been in a tahoe have you? The most comfortable vehicle I have ever owned, it rides like a luxry car but can do everything a truck does. Its got autoride suspension that changes how the truck rides over different surfaces. And for better looking..... idk I love my taho its a good looking truck and the room inside makes it awesome.

@Mitch: I've been in one, I guess for comfort I don't like the 'cloudiness' (as in rides like a cloud haha) I like feeling the occasional imperfection in the road.

And yeah looks are subjective.

Have you driven the 9g? base it on your feelings man
