Hey all!

This is my 2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder GT 5 Speed.mclarenross2003's 2001 Mitsubishi Eclipsemclarenross2003's 2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse
Not much yet, but its getting there. So far all I've done is cut the bottom and top resonators out of the factory airbox, install Brembo Drilled & Slotted rotors with Axxis Metal Master pads, plus paint the calipers.

I also painted the cheap looking factory plastic fuel door with aluminum paint and added black accents. I think it looks pretty good!

I painted some custom eyebrowz on my headlights.

I have also cut open the fake vents and made a custom grill to fit in them as well as the middle opening.

I have painted some of the basic stuff under the hood red also. Ill get the Wavemixer hose kit from RRE as soon as I get the money..

I now have installed a set of modified Fed-Spec manifolds from a 2000 GT as well as removed the main cat and installed a 3" Tsudo Mandrel bent Cat-Back from a 1999 Eclipse GST. It sounds GREAT! Lots more get up and go also.

I finaly got around to doing some painting, I painted my tail lights and did a little modification to the wireing. Now, when i turn on my headlights both circles light up.

I also did a little painting to my interior, Im thinking about re-painting it silver though. UPDATE: I did repaint it silver finaly, much happier with it.

I have gotten all clear corners, 2003-05 chrome headlights. Silver Mitsubishi emblems and SPYDER emblem relocated to the center. Shaved the V6 and GT emblems. All clear chrome tails painted in the style of my old ones. New tails have LED bulbs in them. Replaced the red bumper inserts with silver ones. I am getting some black vinyl eyebrowz made that are the same as the ones on my old headlights. All I have left on the exterior is the expensive things, Shine Street full kit, and 19" Exel DH-46 rims.

Here is my new set of AMSS Gen2 Headers. They are nice. Sound great in the lower RPMs but very raspy in the mid range RPMs. You get used to it though. Will get RPW ones after a while.

I got this little sticker for my rearview mirror also. Thought it was cute. That says "OBJECTS IN MIRROR APPEAR TO BE LOSING"

Just installed my new Shine Street front lip. Im also getting a set of Motegi DPKs tommorow in trade for my stock rims and tires. Good deal. I am also trading my stock front fenders for a set of already painted and fitted Z3 fenders. I also bought a EVO carbon fiber hood fron a guy for $50. All this stuff will get put on over Christmas and January.
