Hop onto www.photobucket.com or the image hoster of your choice. Upload the picture from your computer. The image hosting site should provide that picture with an image code. Use that code here and we'll be able to take a look at your galant!

Welcome to TGC! Hope that helped.

im not a big fan of my rims. they are 18" but for some reason the car makes them look small. im looking for black rims that are lighter than the pnes i have. someone hit me in the drivers side rear corner and drove off.

I think the rim design makes your rims look small. Seriously.

Very clean and very nice looking g though! Don't get many clean 7g's around here much on the new member section.

no i was not in the car when it happened.. i cant find any rims that i like that wont look small on my car. i have been on tire reack and discount tire for rims. even pepboys and andys auto sports and cant find any i like.
What i have done so far is a 96 engine with 50k miles on it. rebuilt the trans. K&N air intake (thinking of looking for a cold air intake) new shocks struts brakes rims tires paint. put spoiler on myself. obviously the body kit. new exhaust. after market stereo system. i am uncertain what direction i want to head in. i wanna do more performance stuff but not sure where to start or if i should work on the interior first to make the whole car flow 1st.

that sucks dude.on both of those websites you can see what they look like on the car.if you want a cold air intake you have to make it,there is one for sale on here though but you wont be able to see it yet but i could help you out with that if you want.

how can you help me with that? and do you think the cold air intake would be better than the K&N short ram air intake?

right now i am transfering from groton ct to portsmouth nh then to norfolk va. i can get a bypass valve probably from aem that will solve any water issue into the intake.

welcome! nice 7G you got there. The fitment of that front bumper looks spot on from what I can see. IMO, some black mesh would finish it off nicely.

Please leave the car the color it is with that chrome. They may be your favorite colors, but you'll hate your self for switching it to your combo. Photoshop it first and look at it EVERY day.

uh oh this is sounding all too familiar lol
I love green too, but there's some places it (in my opinion) where it shouldn't be. Green mesh will be pushing it I think. You might be able to pull it off, but I really have no idea. Black wheels with green lip doesn't sound bad. Green drum brakes.. no bueno. No offense to you, but the people here will mostly laugh at painted drum brakes (it has happened many times in the past with other colors). Do a brake conversion to calipers and rotors, then you can make them green :)

i was going to try and start on the interior and do it black and green but not sure where to start. was thinking about some racing seats probably black and green harnesess. was going to keep stock dash and door panels as they are already black but accent pieces in green. also thinking about deleting the rear seat due to the fact if anyone is in there the rear drags and hits tires.
