My Evo 5 converted mirage...

So I had a build thread posted a few years ago on my Evo 5 converted mirage, but I had to put the car on the backburner and focus on school. I have since started grad school, and still had no time to finish the car theoretically, but was just tired of it sitting there, so with some help from previous owner, I got the car up and running and am just about finished with the exterior. Car is fully AWD converted, uses OEM Evo 5 body panels, full Evo 8 front and rear seats, RHD converted, swapped with a Evo 7 4g63t along with a Evo 5 T/C and tranny. Mods are simple as of now with Evo 9 turbo, 3 inch FMIC, 1300cc injectors, AEM fuel pump, 12 gallon fuel cell, 3 inch DP and exhaust.
will eventually be a buschur 2.3LRPM motor and shep built tranny and t/c. I am content with the exterior, but am leaning towards the varis Evo 5/6 widebody kit.

Oh man, I am so stoked to see this! I remember your build thread and I was worried the project was abandoned, really glad to hear you pulled it through! That was quite a bit of work, but very well worth it!

What a badass car, enjoy it!

Answer my own question it’s probably A37 Grey mirage paint code 🤭 I know it says in title but just realised you can convert mirage to evo 5 😅
