O_O.... I've... done it... I've reached the end. After all these years this thread is STILL alive and this project is STILL going. KUDOS TO YOU SIRE!

I'll be starting on my own little "Mirage" project this summer. Aiming for evo 5... but we'll see. I may veer off and do my own custom bits. Thanks for being an inspiration. I now know that it can be done 100%.

This thread is incredible. The patience and determination it would take to complete a project like this is amazing. I can't wait to see the new paint job and ultimately the finished project. Kudos to you sir!

Congrats on the build... I too have been a HUGE fan of the TME 6.5... you've done just a stunning job! So much blood, sweat and tears... Good luck!!!

18x9.5 +28, going to need to do some cutting of the rear arches to fit properly.

This thread is inspiring. I currently have a 8 that I've just brought back from the dead (read my intro in the newbie section lol) but the body isn't fixed and the car is now salvaged. It's still clean as hell but you've got me thinking...
