Hey everyone, I'm looking for the following parts for an evo 8/9:
Oem hood
Driver's side fender
Evo 9 front bumper
HID headlights
3" ets intercooler
condenser + fan
radiator + fan
radiator support
wheel airbag
dash + airbag
Lmk what you have or if you know someone that could sell me some parts.
I have the original ballasts - They are currently boxed up with my lamps ready to ship all together. I don't want to separate everything. not sure if you know this , but The JDM lamps have reverse traffic projectors (it lights up the wrong side of the road in the USA)

how does it light up the wrong side of the road? Don’t the bulbs just light straight?
The light is "straight" (as you call it) on a fog light, not a head light. (I used to be a lighting engineer for the company I work for- not Mitsubishi, but a much bigger global automaker)
Shortly put- JDM projectors step UP on the left side so that you can see more distance on the left of you- since in Japan you should never have traffic approaching you on your left side. In the west where we live- it is opposite, we never have traffic approaching us on our right.
This is why when you buy JDM lamps they should be opened and the projectors should be changed. I had built a custom set of lamps for my Evo where I did exactly this (which is now gone and sold). Here is a link that documents the project if you are interested in seeing what was done: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...m-project.html
