Hi there !

I found an OEM Mirage Turbo in my little country, far from its origin. I'm going to rebuild it, but I want to keep almost everything original. Only few upgrades in my list :)

The car as I bought :

The front right side was broken, repaired from a black EU 1.5 DL parts with metal bumper. Now its gone and a GTi replaced it.

In the interior, everything is original, and working. Electric windows fitted now of course :)

Now the bad parts.
As the floor was wet, I ripped the interior. Mainly it was leaking from the windshiled for a while, so the floor panels rusted. Not too bad, but needs a lot of attention.

Now sits on EVO 2-3 alloys, with big tires. As I change them to 195/50s, will be great.

It is a 92-96 Galant (2,5 V6 AWD) full auto climate control. I have 2 of them in the shelf, so I tought, I could use :)
Almost the same as the EVO 1-3 ones, the shape and the display is different, but works in the same way.

Nice I always smile seeing these pop up everywhere. The heater control looks the same as the one in my early Evo.

Edit... very similar but after looking at some side by side pics, it is very slightly different.

This is an EU GTi bumper. It was stock in every 4G61 and 4G67 GTi Lancers and Colts there. Not very hard to found one.

I'll take the back bumper at least if you want just the front? Their is a person on fb making repro jdm front bumpers. I've been nagging the crap out of him about doing a rear but he didn't have one. If I can get this I'll send it to him to have front and rears available.
