    Sweet, I can easily get a hold of that paint. What prep work is involved?

    Also: you using yellow halogens, too? Or standard ones?

    Hmm you might be right, mine is sitting kinda high. My rear looks lower than yours, do you have a sub in the back Corey?
    Thinking about it.. Has the car had any suspension work or been damaged in the front end of any sorts? Maybe the PO replaced the GTZ springs with the ES v6 springs?

    As far as prep..I just used some stoner Invisible Glass glass cleaner and paper towels with pressure while scrubbing the lense. That's it lol, besides masking everything off with aluminum foil and some painters tape. I didn't even take them apart from the housing to paint, cause frankly I didn't know how. Just slide the foil under/ behind the lights, and fold the edges over/around the housing. Spray light coats, cause heavy coats definitely affect clarity..also its gonna look hazy until it dries fully, then it becomes clear (kinda weird). What you can do in between coats is use a hair dryer to speed it up cause it drys fast. Last but not least, I do have yellow halogens. Good luck if you give it a try

    Awesome. Thanks for the tips, giving this a go when it's warmer outside.

    No, according to the PO and from what I've seen looking under the car, she's had no accidents and the suspension looks all original, they babied the car before I got it. It was a family car for a family that got too large for it.

    When I got the car and changed from eibachs and teins springs, the rear height looks ungodly higher than most Galants on here. For the longest time couldn't figure out why it was doing so. When I got progress springs it lowered it out a little, then I got brand new gr-2's which evened out the height. Later found out it was a combination with how much freight you put inside the trunk and the condition of the rear shocks. Now I don't have that kind of issue since getting those coilovers. Yay!

    Do you have a sub or anything?

    I hope someday that my car is as clean as yours, Pete!

    I do have a sub box, a bag of tools (sockets and ratchets, wrenches, a couple screwdrivers, a pry bar, a 32-oz hammer), a bucket of vital fluids (oil, antifreeze, PS fluid (ATF), windshield washer fluid, tire shine) and a 2-ton (read: small) hydraulic jack in my trunk. Oh, and a spare "Mitsubishi V6 24 Valve" stamped valve cover back there too. So maybe that weight has my back weighed down and is pulling my front up slightly.
