they're not stock. the factory never made OE projector headlights for the 8G.

i have added these one piece jdm projector headlights (custom made by depolights), the VR4 foglights, a bmw antenna, vr4 badge to the grill, ganador mirrors, leather interior, dvd/gps radio, phone console, vr4 strut bar under the hood and i got the stock british 17" alloy wheels on it.

a vr4 wing, fender flares, wind deflectors and lowering springs are on their way...going to tint the windows in black...then the car will be finished for now.

do u guys have serious rust problems over there, too? in europe galants always starting to rust at the tail wheelhouses...already after 3 - 4 years of use
btw if anybody´s looking for euro parts...i can easily get em

your cars were built in america right? the ones here come straight from japan...i can tell u guys... a friend of mine got a 2003 model...the rust has already started a year ago...we have people around here who work on this problem every single year again and again...this shit still coming back.

well its a cancer, you gotta swap the part.. theres no other way around it.

in that case one has to swap the whole chassi:orangecry:
mitsubishi was aware of this rust problem...but they did not zinc-coated at that time...unfortunately, because the galant has such a cool design

lol yes, you can always cut out and weld new metal.. lol

[Jules]

the problem is the chassi grows rust in general...even if you swap the bad parts...its starting in the engine compartment and the doors too...so thats why the whole chassi would have needed a full zinc treatment in the first place
