Hello!

Now it's time for me to start a project thread.
Here you have my first thread in which it is a little info about me and some pictures that have happened to the car before I started this thread ..


https://www.thegalantcenter.org/showthread.php?t=46997


The galants are known to rust in the rear wheelarches.
I started to fix the rust right away!

Are you sure the Hot Glue is gonna hold up?

Good stuff! X2 on the hot glue though, it may not hold up to any foul weater.

Eriksson

Are you sure the Hot Glue is gonna hold up?

You don't think so?
What else should I use?
My friend used hot glue on his bumper.
And for him the glue has hold up perhaps 1 year.

I'm not sure what it's called, when I bought my 3g it had a similar grill on it and it was held on with a different substance, it hardened and it was yellow in color. Maybe a 2-part epoxy. Ex. JB Weld

Okok! We'll see if it holds or not.
Otherwise it is just to redo! :)

It's very uncomfortable to work on the driveway .. But we have no room in the garage right now .. : (
The wheel arches are bought at a parts store called "Mekonomen" I think I bought two for a total of about 1500SEK (235USD)

One little update
I could unfortunately not mount the skirts and the spoiler today.
I need the help of Dad. one must keep the skirts while the second adjusts them.
Will take it on Sunday..

I mounted on the sports seats instead!
Fit perfectly on the original brackets.
Fitment 95%. I needed almost not modify anything!

http://img818.imageshack.us/img818/3900/dsc0097555.jpg (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/818/dsc0097555.jpg/)

Now I'll just fix the rest of the leather interior, like door panels and rear seat.
I will paint all the gray plastic parts to black as well.

More updates to come tomorrow!

Hello, what do you mean with "the tints on the sides"? :119:

I think he's referring to the weird Silver/black looking tint at the side of your windows that looked like Door Visors...it's an optical illussion I think...this is actually a reflection of the neighbors house and the sky if I'm not mistaken.

What's kind of Front Bumper and Side Skirts are these? It grows on me the longer I look at it.And the official name f the Red color you used?

I like your front grill..remids me of mine :038: but yours is a lot better!

Yep, you're right about the windows.

It is Yakuza sideskirts from Auto R and the front bumper is from Aerotrenz. ;)

The red color is Mitsubishi's original color (code: P85), I think

Hello!

I have just received my salary to pay the rims ...
Unfortunately I have to wait until next month before I can afford tires.

I've been and inspected the car .. I need new brakelines(pipes?) .. they were really rusty.

Hello!
Today I tinted the taillights and the turn signals.
The taillights are not nearly as much tinted as the pictured shows .. You have to see it in reality.

What do you think? Better or worse?
I can remove the tint if I want.

Meh...if you're going to do that, only tint the red section, for a black/white look. I'm a sucker for that.

The LED tails on my Pontiac are a good example of what I mean:

Your tails done in that fashion would be great!

Also, lose the odd lettering on the trunk garnish, d00d. Debadged FTW!

I want the solid black interior! Is that an option for you there? Or is that custom work?

It is possible to get it, but it's hard to get the black/leather interior for itself.
I just had lucky that a friend of mine will build on his interior by himself. So I got the chance to buy the leather interior from him. Black leather interior is quite rare.

That's looking like a really good job. One thing, did you fit the rear screen wiper yourself? drill the glass or VR4 screen? Or did they come factory standard for the Swedish market. So want one on mine!

Skyforger is talking about moving the license plate from the middle of the car to either side of the car. Here is an example, but you can make a bracket that could fit all the way to one side of your car. (I know my photoshop skills suck)

Agreed. Everythings looks amazing, but maybe the visor could've stayed black, or even just the GALANT on the trunk. Are you going to tint the windows? That and the letters might be a perfect amount of contrast.

Overall,
Car looks great. Awesome work! I also agree to keep the plate where it is.
