Sup folks, hmm well what can i say.... I was a lurker for quite time around this site . got LOTS of ideas to give life back to the galant my brother handed down too me. As you guys can see it looked like #$%#$%# !!! Got it painted (mineral gray) put a mugen acura lip myself, replaced headlights with the ones with black housings,HID lights , made myself a custom mesh grill and dipped it. Painted the stock rims and KERPOWWW!!! Thanks for looking!!!!

Nice transformation. With a set of nice aftermarket wheels and a drop, that car will be super clean.

Clean indeed! Nice job making it look great again! Putting the lip on really makes a day and night difference in appearance.

Welcome to TGC! Unfortunately, March's voting is set, but you can compete for Aprils spot. Car looks clean!

Yea im planning on just buying lowered springs and installing them myself but i dont know jack shit about my cars suspension. I heard coilovers are good but fuck me they are pricey!

Nice work, it's simple. I like simple.

IMO, you'd be best with some good drop springs and good struts. You won't spend a fortune but you can still be happy with some quality parts. You'd be happy with either Eibachs or Tien springs on Tokico blue struts, but that's just a suggestion of mine.

Also: didn't you mention it's super high mileage? Be prepared to replace other suspension bits if you do tackle it, strut mounts, bushings, etc. find out what you're going to be tearing apart so you can expect on what to replace if you need to.
