Nice. I wish my dad still had the embroidering machine because i would put him to work. I wish mitsu still sold the black carpet and mats. I might have a professional embroider the door inserts to color coordinate the car maybe. My theme is def. candy red. I have evo calipers that need to go on, along with candy red VC, water pipe, and fuel rail.

Also while I was painting that hatch plastic, I placed some foam behind them before snapping them onto the hatch because they were rattling. They now are perfectly stable and quiet all the time.

Spray foam or cushion foam? I dont seem to have a problem with rattling except for my door a little and the sunroof. The sunroof because of the seam being messed up. Thank god it doesnt leak though. lol

OMG yea. Eclipses are sexier than an evo for sure. Not as aggressive but much sexier. My car is a ****ing magnet. I purposefully drive through the dorms of OSU to see how many girls look. And my car isnt loud so i know they aint looking becuase of that hahaha.

Check the torx bolts that hold it too the frame. I know for a fact mine are loose a little. I have two sounds my sunroof makes. A rattle from is rattling on the roof and another from it rattling on the frame rails of the mechanism. Both annoying as hell.

it's the torx bolts that hold the glass to the frame. they are pita to reach though. You have to open the sunroof different amounts to easily get to each one and I just haven't gotten to it.

Yea, the rear one you have to open the sunroof to do. The first and second ones you should be able to reach from inside.

My GS-T is white. The best color for sure. Nice car. I put down black carpet and have painted the hatch area plastic black, white leather on the doors and I painted the bottom of the dash white, but I'm thinking of just redoing it in black. I am on a mission to remove all traces of gray from the interior.
