    The Mafia's GTZ

    So, here is the story about my Galant.

    November 2004

    It all began with me, driving my 1990 Toyota Corolla. I was living in Ogden, Utah and one day I passed this used car dealer. In the lot, was this white car with tint and nice rims. I didn't know what it was at first. I pulled in the lot, got out of the car.... and fell in love with Galants. It was the beginning of my horrid love affair with them.

    April 7th, 2005

    I moved to Minnesota, and found the car I wanted. 01, fully loaded, and black - my GTZ.







    My Corolla in the background! I miss it :(





    I joined TGC and GF a few months later.

    I bought a pair of eyelids from TGC.





    This picture was perfection for me when I took it.





    I did all of the cheap mods at first; debadged, clear corners. I also got the windows tinted.

    Then winter came...



    I bought FrankMB's suspension and installed it.

    Oh yeah, I also bought a set of eyelids from DANJ I believe. Where is that guy anyway?



















    In the spring, I traveled down to the land of TGCIL and met up with Gabe (n3oacid), Jon (CHICAGO_ONE), Raphael (FRDC) and Phil (Phil haha) I bought Phil's rims in the parking lot of the hotel I was staying at.

    Shots to celebrate Jon's birthday at Hooters (fucking good times!!)... Ahh memories :)









    After about 20 feet of driving, I quickly realized the tires were way to damn big. So I sold the tires on CL, and bought some new ones.





    Somewhere along the way I bought a CAI off CL too.



    Ugh okay this has taken me an hour and a half... To be continued! Alot more continued! :D

    If you post stupid and incorrect information, you will get red nuggets.

    Genuine experience carries a lot more credibility than the ability to answer a question.

    a suggestion: take the chrome off the bottom of the windows or add more chrome around them

    polish black out your heads (including the turn signal area), and get switchbacks

    He has a vr4 converted front, aka jdm lights, which means he doesn't need to black out his heads anymore. Those are old pictures of his car.

    would the lids make it look good like it does now if the heads are blacked out?

    I'd rather have the knowledge and ability to do it than the money to buy it already done.
