ForTheGlory37's 2009 Lancer GTS (09/08/10)

Thanks a lot man.

Ordering the RRM suspension bar package which I'm going to have powder coated lime green along with my calipers.

 

UPS delivered my suspension bar package earlier today. Waiting to sell some old parts or my next pay check, whichever comes first, to have them powder coated lime green along with my calipers.

 

It's not gonna be out of the garage for awhile, lots of work to be done, but when it is I'll let you know. By then it will have the suspension bar package, Tein coilovers, and 17x8 Enkeis so it should handle even better than the car already does!

 

PMed you

 

Drilled new holes for my APR canards today and took off my stock sway bar.

 

Sanded down the bumper today, started fixing scratches, and filled in the old Canard holes today. I'll try to get pictures up this weekend. Also working on a custom upper grill to get rid of the mitsubishi symbol and sanding down and repainting the engine cover. A good day of progress lol. Priming the bumper next weekend when I actually have time off work. =( work.

 

My cars not gonna be done and out of the garage until after winter. But come next spring, for sure.

 

Found this picture on my phone from the other day when I repositioned my canards. Now my bumper is completely sanded down so not like this lol

 

Just got this in the mail today...


Green wire looms. I started putting them in tonight for a little so here's a preview...


Tomorrow I'm gonna continue working on it and getting cracks out of my bumper and maybe start priming if I get work done.

And can anyone tell me how I can change the title so the update isn't January anymore?

 

Yesterday my friend came up and helped get the cracks out of my bumper with some fiberglass. Next work day the bumper will be in primer. I cleaned up my wire loom job too and got a little farther. It's a very slow process lol.

 

Thanks HUNK. But it's lime green cause I'm painting my car white and doing lime green accents like the calipers, wire looms, and sway bars. But the engine bay will stay blue since I'm not ripping my motor out to paint it. But I still dig the blue with lime green like you said.

Thanks Sinestra. I got them off eBay. It's cheap but time consuming and looks good when you get it all done.

So last night til about 5am this morning me and my buddy were working on the Lancer...

Finished the upper grill insert. He fiberglassed over the cut-out in the top and I made a grill for it and primed it in black...



I repainted my other grill pieces since they were turning a bronze color...


We finished sanding the bumper and primed it just to get an idea of the look. That's grey primer but looks white in the pictures with black primer for what I'm going to keep black.


I redrilled one of the holes that got fiberglassed over and put my canards back on...


Then we put it all back together! So the bumper is complete!
