Mind the Colbalt that's my friends.

Tell me what you think :)

"Punish and Enslave..." :023:

good start, although i didnt like both emblems on the front but thats just me

Should get the 09-11 headlight. The housing is black. Will go nice with your black car and tinted taillight

I like all Galants. So much prettiness. I like the interior trim piece painting you did. Are your hubcaps painted or plasti dipped?

Painted hubs. Going to be getting enkei rz-5 rims.

There's 2 emblems because the front is indented and I plan to get a new body kit I think the ATI I believe it's called.

Also going to be getting the universal skyline spoiler.

Good call on the black bezel headlight.

Transfomer emblem. :runaway:

At least spray paint your actual steelies, the rust won't show through as much. And no need to buy black housing headlights, crack those suckers open and spray them yourself.

Emblems Ruin it

Clean. The steelies should be painted for sure. Don't mind the decepticon theme.

When I go to paint my calipers purple I'm going to be spray painting the steel then for a temporary until I gather up enough cash for my rims. Not exactly sure what kind I really want to get. Here is the list of stuff I still need to do and something's I'm not sure of tell me what you guys think I should do/ what would you do?

Kicker Sub: http://www.amazon.com/KICKER-CVR102-...9552972&sr=1-6

Purple Interior Lighting

VIS Racing Body Kit: http://www.bodykits.com/VIS-Racing/B...SP_099/838958/

Black Headlight Housing (Not sure if will get Bezzle or Open them and paint them. I'm just afraid that I'll melt something and not open it correctly.)

New Seat or Purple and black Seat covers.

Purple Calipers

Rear Window Spoiler (I don't know where to find them at)

Eye Lids (not sure if it will be the fiber glass ones for $100 or if I will get Vinyls and make them.

That should look pretty sweet when your done. I can't wait to see the final product. Although, in my opinion at least, I find this 9G Galant body kit sexier:

But whatever you choose, it's your opinion, but also maybe I like it so much because of the rear bumper, I just find that so sweet!

Not a fan of what's going on here. :eek:

What's wrong skyforger?

I would like to heat your opinion and ideas.

The whole "lol my car is a transformer!" thing is entirely played out. The purple painted bits on the interior just look tacky. Black painted hubcaps...meh. All the body kit, purple lights, exterior crap you want to do...just, meh.

Look, it's your car. Me, I prefer more of performance and function with my mods, although I'm a fan of a clean front lip and rear visor and such. Less is more, dude.

*edit*
Look into doing an HID/projector retrofit with a second set of headlights. It'll improve the looks of the car a bit, and increase your night vision tenfold.

I was actually talking with my friends about this stuff today. My one friend mentioned the old euro motto less is more anything else and your just ruining it. I can see that. I have thought about removing somethings and doing some others.

I know for sure that I want to do the roof spoiler but I can't seem to find a very nice one. I would love to do the gts lights with the trunk lip but atm the GTS lights are just too expensive. If there were some non OEM brands that I could find that would be great. /7

The transformer thing I thought of while I was trying to come up with a color scheme and I was gonna do black and blue but my friend had that in his car and on his. (the colbalt above) and I really didn't want to be copying him. So I went with purple.

I wanted to do some eye lids I know that cause the 9th gen galants just look too happy. I'm also having second thoughts on the universal skyline spoiler.

The fact that I have been tagged in the tag list ricers gonna rice.... kinda pisses me off and at the same time makes me look at my car and wonder.... is it too ricey? or is it just someone hating? you tell me.

Ya I've posted a lot but I've come to the conclusion that I'm taking off the front and the back emblem. Going to replace the Mistu emblem debadge the LSV6 and the Galant emblems. But I'm going to the dash emblem. Get myself the roof spoiler, the body kit, the interior lighting, get myself a heat gun and retrofit, get new rims (have been looking at a bunch of different ones not sure which I want, get the sub, and seat covers, and that's pretty much it. If I choose to do anything else from there it would be performance mods and I have no idea what I would do.

Save up your pennies for the GTS tails and matching spoiler, and just debadge all the Decepticon emblems and the Galant emblem out back. Ditch the vinyl saying on the side, too.

"hating" is such an annoying term. People are just pointing things out, like I said, do what you want. But when you're gonna do such ricey things, expect the comments.

Wasn't really trying to be ricey but I guess when you take a step back and actually look at it....it is... makes me sad that I actually did that..

Modifications such as a CAI, cat back exhaust, lowering springs/coilovers, wheels and tires, swapping heads/tails, are much more rewarding IMO.

I was looking into a CAI before. And as for lowering coils idk how far I would go. Cause I don't want to risk mobility so I might lower it only an inch or two.

I'm already doing tails/heads and wheels though. First things first remove the stuff and then get the wheels. Then the tails and 3rd light lip brake. Then heads then roof spoiler. And then lower and then whatever comes to mind but I might be good on exterior then.

my advice to you is to remember that it is YOUR car, now if u look at it and see its ricey, then by all means its ricey, to me, i think it is, but to you it may not, therefore don't let anyone CHANGE what your doing to YOUR car, and just figure out what you want the car to look like in the end and then go for that goal, I personally i like a clean not overdone car that just sits nice and looks good, i dont want something that stands out to the point where people look at it and say WTF. Sit back, browse the forums, take a look at the other 9g's and ge some ideas and go from there. This forum is here to educate those that dont know and to help instill the ideas of what a clean Galant should look like. but like i said, its your car, choose your vision and then go for it

^^Yep. F what anyone but you thinks. I damn sure won't change my sig because someone made fun of it in a thread tag. And adding "lousy mod list" to the tags is "hating," fuck what anyone say, that shit's not called for. He's not spamming the boards, he's just doing him in his build thread. Quit that shit yall.

One quick question I know there probably a post out there but what did you guys use to fill the holes? Would some sealant do the trick?

Holes for what? The holes in the trunk? I put some blue painter's tape on the outside of the car over the top of the holes and then on the inside of the trunk I put some JB Weld where the holes were and some overlap on the inside of the trunk. I let it sit for 12 hours then I took the tape off and used some Dupli-color touch up paint and just "dabbed" some paint on the JB weld so it wouldn't stand out.

Seriously, excuse me for being honest when he asked for my opinion.

I'm done with the retarded games. OP, keep looking around for what mods you like, I'll be happy to keep giving you a second opinion on build ideas if you'd like.

Thanks Skyforger appreciate it. I always love opinions especially from people that have been here for a long time.

I love this Galant that Wicked380 did. I'm trying to find that roof spoiler though but can't find it anywhere. http://i184.photobucket.com/albums/x.../Image0422.jpg

I'm too fucked up on Vicodin right now to be mad about it....

Cruise eBay for roof spoilers, there's more than just one design for the 9G.

I've only been here for a year, but I've been tinkering with various different cars for years.

Anyone know how to make a roof spoiler maybe? I think that's what wicked380 here did. Doesnt seem to be one that is sold. Idc if its a plastic or fiber glass. Would be fun to make though.
