Welcome to TGC! Thats way to funny! When i first recived my car (also a 1999 galant ES) the front bumper was cracked! hehe...i got mine directly from mitsubishi but i get a discount...check around on sites...if you go to google.com and type in "99 galant front bumper" alot of results should pop up for sites to buy!

the 02 and 03 look different from the 99 to 01. there are also jdm front bumpers and lots of others on ebay and other sites. best thing to do would do a google search so you can see the differences (kinda hard to explain)

welcome to TGC bro... I suggest u to think about what you really want... cuz u can use "the (oem) stock bumper" same as that one u have in ur car, "aftermarkets" can be those made it by Fiberglass and we also have the JDM look... if u pocket can afford for the JDM one.. cool u can get it from a member here who stay at JAPAN (if im not wrong) {his name is tigger} so he can get one for u and send it to ur house, or the same jdm bumper look made it in FG that CALI makes..!!
good luck and post some pics of ur ride..!! =D

whats up and welcome to TGC| where in NJ are you at? I am in Woodbridge, we have a bunch of other members in NJ also, and NY. Keep an eye on the Mid Atlantic section, as we are looking to get together at some point coming up and we usually get together a few times once it starts getting warm out

I had my galant repainted at a shop in Staten Island, the guy did great work and the prices were reasonable. Tints, not really sure, I have been tinted for a while and had that done on SI too. You might want to join njtuners.com also. It's a local site, but people there will help lead you in the right direction as far as bodyshops and tint

Paint isnt necessary, you can follow the trend of every other midatlantic member and have a multicolor car :)

I don't have a shop name, they are located minutes off the outerbridge on the SI side. But I can give you the name of the person and their number and you can tell them that Jason with the silver galant sent you
