Wooow pare. Sic!!! Will definitely watch this too.

 

Thanks pare.

The next step will be installing the OEM rear wide arches.

If anybody have hookups with rear fender flaring and pulling here in Socal please let me know so that I can take it to that shop and have the rear fenders pulled and flared.

 

Its amazing how far this has come in such little time. You've done about a years worth of work for me. Then again I had no income...

 

Thank you so much for having the time to reply to my messages and giving me the correct advice on how to setup the car.

Without you I would be setting up and converting the car all wrong.

I hope you don't get tired of replying to all my noob questions.

Thanks again.

 

you doing the trunk and rear lights? im going to assume yes.

 

lol bro. thats from an evo 8 ssl
not ix

 

^^ My Bad, the seller said it was from a IX SSL LOL I guess not.

Cheap seats none the less, I got it for $200

 

looks great. keep us updated. thats the cleanest 9 year old stock engine I think ive ever seen in a mitsubishi LOL.

 

New updates

1. Installed the rear door and rear quarter panel arches.



1a. You can see from this picture that the inner fenders still needs to pulled inside the rear arches. The body shop will take care of that problem for me.



2. Installed the rear bumper, fitment is spot on. The body shop is pissed because they needed to take out a bunch of stuff and do some custom brackets to properly fit the rear bumper.







3. TME Headlights

 

coming along nicely

 

Nice! How did you go about putting on the arches?

Also I'm heading out of town for a week, so I can't respond to any messages.

 

im noticing the offset on those wheels is pretty off...do you plan to add adapters? or does addin the actual evo suspension bring the wheels out more? just curious

 

that rear left wheel also looks like it has a big dent in it . are you doing a 5 lug conversion as well?

 

The OEM rear arches has clips at the back, the body shop drilled holes at the door and rear quarter panel to attach the rear arches on the car.

 

The bent on the rear wheel does not affect regular driving, it holds air and there are no vibrations during high speeds.

I will be eventualy be doing a 5 lug conversion with front and rear brembos when I am done with the exterior and interior conversion.
