more JDM porn

[ASTIG]

finally go my car last night, but had to work all day so lighting was bad by the time I got home tonight.

Thanks to Triggermauve for most of the parts, and sleeper for the rear bumper.

here she is finally with a fresh coat of glacier frost mica. hopefully I can get her washed and get some decent pictures.

BTW what do you guys think I should do with the grille, leave it silver or get it painted to match? I also have the Vogue front spoiler, but that's for summer.

darn I need a new license plate

[Divinity]

Very nice! That color looks really good, nice choice and I like the cladding on the side ;) You could go either way with the grille, but you know a majority of the folks on here are probably going to say color match it lol.

[ChuloMxcn]

Sexxxxxxxxy!!!

[dknight3]

looks good, yea, i say color match the grille.

[SleekGTZ]

Nice and sexy!

[4g63lover]

looks fresh.

color match the grille itll look 100x better.

[mrjaydeeone]

very nice. yeah color match the grille

[9G]

sweet! that white is very close to a silver.

[devgrp]

Car looks good, but I'n not feeling the white. I never like white unless its on high end cars, like bmws or benz

[glantv699]

i think your ride looks awesome.....just match the grill and it's done

with this clean approach it's as if you were trying to be modest but i think every line and mod on that car will be turning heads

:smt045

[WarmAndSCSI]

Lookin ver good. Montero looks phenomenal too. Did you have those ZR-1's before I did? :lol:

[seth98esT]

Very sweet man! You ought to get rid of the chrome window trim and get the DE black trim, would look hot!

[GoldGalant [Reborn]]

Nice car bro keep it coming

[IceDouTGaLanT]

wow that looks great, that vouge lip will set it off "wish i could afford that vouge" :cry:

[ASTIG]

depending on the lighting, I've noticed it could look silver, light grey, and bright white, then there's the pearl effect too.

I think the color matched grille would look cleaner too. If the silver grille doesnt grow on me, then I'll get it painted on thursday.

next on my list of mods is the black window trim and a light window tint. I am also looking into another set of wheels for summer use...preferrably one with a deep lip. so

[SkylineG1]

Love the look. Keep up the work.

[ASTIG]

Lookin ver good. Montero looks phenomenal too. Did you have those ZR-1's before I did? :lol:

you probably got them first. I just got them about 4 months ago. I want to get the GTC-01

So did I, but they're overly expensive for Enkeis... I won't say what I plan on getting long-term as to at least keep the outside appearance of my car unique, although very mild.

Keep up the good work!

[DOHCstunr]

i think it looks hot, definatly color match the grill.
no other option.

[Ivory8g]

color match and car is hella sexy mang. bet you can turn heads with that one.

[lonestar22]

damn that looks fuckin sweet.
i love that colour

[lonestar22]

damn that looks fuckin sweet.
i love that colour

[ASTIG]

thanks for the props guys. I made myself clean the garage at midnight in subzero windchills so I can park the car inside so as to not get hit by falling branches in my driveway.

BTW my friend keeps telling me I need to drop it some more, but my parking garage at work has pretty steep entrance/exit angles that I risk scraping the bumper. Does it look that bad? I think it looks fine. I think I just need to bring the rear wheels out a bit to be somewhat flush with the JDM fenders.

I'll put on the vogue lip spoiler tomorrow and snap some pictures.

I am also planning on getting rid of the coffee can muffler and getting something that looks OEM, but nice.

[9G]

super sweet.

[AVERAGE]

its tight,dude just the way it is.

[Reelax]

color match the grill. looks good so far. great work!

[boostzealot]

cant wait to see it on that color. looks great so far man!

[Reelax]

i just looked at the pics again... rewire the sidemarkers to go on w/ your parking lights. there is a super simple way to have them still work as signals w/ the parking lights on or off... but they will blink out of phase when the parking lights are on (work normal when parking lights are off). instead of wiring the + signal and ground to the marker, wire the markers to + signal and + parking. i know it sounds like it shouldn't work since there is no wire to ground, but the markers will find their own ground through the flasher module but will be off when there is no + or both wires are +.

[Strizi81]

Looks nice,only need some slamage :wink:

[furiousgtz]

oh nice I want that JDM front

[GOOSEY2099]

Good Job bro!!

[Galant_4_Live]

yesss this is the way i like to see Galants !!

holy nice JDM setup !

boy then you don't know what you r missing!! as a proud 8g owner, i love how the white looks on our G's!!

[djflex167]

is that a USDM Rear Bumper? or JDM? oh!! and how about the fenders, did you customize the side marker or thats the JDM Fender that comes with it? thanks

[9G]

baby got no back so its JDM.

[fatal1]

came out good i would like to see the lip on it too....colormatch the grill

Thanks. I researched and found a way to have the side markers stay on with parking lights and then blink IN PHASE with the turn signals and still just use a single filament bulb. WHen it is on as a sidemarker, it wont be at full power, but when it blniks it will go at full power.

the fender is oem. they just cut a hole in it for the sidemarkers.

[lnkn52]

very nice

[cowboybeebop]

:shock: :shock: ...me likes

sweet! does it work w/ led markers? i want to add markers but i don;t have any regular bulbs on the outside anymore (all bulbs are HID or LED) so i don't wanna use regular bulbs in my markers if i add them.

[Predat-R]

looks good bro, paint the grill black and match the window trim black also.

[2kgalant]

Nice color choice man! Looks familiar to me:
http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y195/gqgalant/DSCN0850.jpg
I think we are the only 2 galants with the Glacier Frost Mica paint. Only bad thing i would say about this color is that it is kinda hard to match when fixing damage. My car is actually going back to the shop next month to fix my cracked sideskirt. They told me that the fender, quarter panel, and sideskirt all need to be sprayed in order for the pearl to match correctly. Anyways...LOVE THE COLOR :D

I dont think it would work with LED because, it uses a resistor to decrease the output of the bulb in the OFF part of the cycle.

Here's a mock up of the Vogue lip. kinda ghetto hehe.

That front lip and paint looks awesome man. :smt023

[Divinity]

Pretty pretty paint, I love it. Now if I can only talk my dad into painting his car that color....

[Reelax]

looks top notch! your headlights are making me want to go do mine. and that lip looks great but it will be VERY low in the front, be careful! so far i think only u and VEGASSMATT has it in the US. now go colormatch your grill!

thanks.

you gotta do the headlights. lighting is just so awesome with projectors. I actually have another set of JDM headlights sitting in my garage because I am thinking of making another set in the spring. I want to do dual projoectors, one high, one low. gimme you email so I can forward you the wiring schematics for the sidemarkers.

that lip sits about 3 inches off the ground. Im pretty sure it wont clear the ramp at my parking garage at work. I only plan on using it occasionally.

[9G]

that lip is tight yo.

[lucap100is]

car looks awesome. is the side marker flush with the fender like goosey2099?

[ASTIG]
