How to: Install a front lip for a 9G Galant
(and yeah, it cost me $6 bux lol)

Well, if you been following my other front lip threads (7G & 8G) you probably already guessed I've been working on a 9G variant. The lip of choice belong to an early model Honda Prelude like this one:

It's the same method as the previous lips so here we go....

Tools:

- Dremel cutting tool
- 12 tapered screws, 12 washers
- double sided tape
- phillips screwdriver

Here's the lip in comparison to the 9g

Here's the lip with double sided tape. Notice I shaved the edges for more flex. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, please refer to the other lip threads I gave a nice explanation there.

Because I'm the Lip Master duh? But seriously, I just picture the contour of the front bumper in my head and compare it to other lips. Not that hard though but not many people have that kind of time to spend for other people's leisure.

A gallant male in a good kit. For his age, he didn't run many miles at all. And that blue illumination at the feet makes it look like you're steering a spaceship.

Thanks, I love him. He's a great car, and I'll ride it forever!

It is a pity that the production of the Mitsubishi Galant ceased in 2012. I can imagine what kind of car it would be, for example, the release of 2023.
