Body Panel Crossover? ES/LS/OZ-Ralliart?
Body Panel Crossover? ES/LS/OZ-Ralliart?
So i managed to get hit a by a deer recently... He managed to tear my front bumper cover, smash the front fender (drivers side), smash the drivers front door and remove the mirror before also bouncing off the rear quarter panel... I WILL NOT buy aftermarket body panels for my car. Ive had to many problems with fitment before... I have been searchin used parts online and can find lots of bumper covers/fenders and doors for the ES/LS or OZ rally models... Im gonna have paint work done anyhow, so used is a huge savings over New Mitsu parts...
Quetion 1: Does the ES/LS/OZ front bumper over fit the RA as well... Im sure as long as it has the tabs on the backside I can install my foglights and lower valence on it... (I know I will have to cut out the holes for the foglamps, but this is standard practice at the dealers I have worked at for dealer installed accessories.)
Same for the front fender and door...

04 and 05 body parts will fit your 04 RA. You the only difference is that the ES doesn't have sideskirts nor the front lip. OZ has sideskirts but no front lip. Ralliart has sideskirts and front lip. hope that answers your question.
all body parts for 04-06 ES/LS/RA are interchangeable... Meaning i can put an ES front bumper on my car with a LS rear bumper on, followed up with mounting the RA lip kit on both of those...
Long story short... This was my mothers car that Her and I had financed... I hit the deer in Nov of last year, and she passed away in Dec... The insurance on the car had already written a check and it had become void after 6 months... I finally got everything straightened out with the finance company to assume the loan, but to get another check cut from a policy that had expired was a real hassle... $500 deductible, and the fact that the original person to come and check out the car did not agree with what the body shop wants to fix the car... That part of it was kinda out of my hands... The damage was quoted at $3100 and the check was for $1900 after the $500 Deductible.. I want to fix it right, and they had priced A/M parts to repair it while my body man wants to use OE... Thats the most of it really... My biggest concern i guess was whether or not the OE RA foglights would work in an ES/LS/OZ bumper cover... I was pretty sure the rest of it was the same, minus the fact that the dealer has different part numbers on the different models
