Is there such thing as UKDM?!

Well, going the UK style. Since I will never be "JDM" with the parts I have now, and since they were free, I am not going to try to start fresh.

Anyway, just got the wheels and the hood on the IX. Been searching God's country for a UK bumper...Not just a JDM one...The one with the little red light in the bumper next to the license plate. Anyway...Just figured I would show off the new goodies.

PS...I know the pictures suck but I have a hard time resizing from 6mp.

The UKDM does not have a red fog light in the bumper any more. The right tail lamp has a red reflector where our reverse lamp is. I know this because I have UK Evo VII tails on my car and I also lived there for 3 years

Here is a link to the Mitsu UK website and a photo of the Evo IX HERE

Yeah, I saw that on a recent thread with a black kitted Evo. Looks odd to me, not a look I would want or pay money to get. I didn't like the UK tails with the amber turn signals at first - at all - but they are starting to grow on me. Nice car.

Those stickers sure do mess up the sleekness of the car, but to each his own.

I know...But I don't have them just cause I like stickers. They are actual sponsors...It is kind of in the contract. So for free parts I can stand a sticker or two.

Thanks all for the comments. I was typing and my daughter deleted everything ( So thanks guys!

I dunno! I was just curious if there was something like that! I can't be "JDM" but I dig the Euro/UK style. Not much difference but I really want the UK bumper and the FQ badges.

I dunno...I am retarded.

Where is my wife?! I am hungry!!!
