This car has sparked my interests back to the DSM world.... I am going to be buying a vehicle in the next 1-2 months and will definitely work towards this (or similar) Obviously I wont pull a fully copy-cat but thats one of the only 1gb front ends I like... I still prefer the 1gb rear end over the 1ga. Heres the link incase you wanna check out this guy's profile: http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/members/40-psi-blk-dsm-75448.html

I would do a 1GB rear, but that car is immaculate. 1G is FTW

You like the pop-ups eh Robert, do you still have that clean White 1GA, we should put are cars together for a photo shoot white on white the best of both 1G's..
Tails are a 1GA Talon, not sure about 1GA Eclipse.
Slightly different thumnails aswell from the 1GB Talon, 1GB Mitsu is bigger.
Ya this is got me confused because it should have the long thumnail that reaches the door windows, unless he swapped that to..
Best combo in my opinon is take a 1GB Eclipse with a 1GA Talon Thumnail, tempted to change mine over but its body is still original.

I respect the 2G's shared unique styling, handling and related features/capabilities, but the 1G is very unique aswell aspecially for its age, and there's something about the wedge shape of a 1G, build quality, easy wrenching, and no OBD that stops me from getting a sexy 2G.
Robert I'll have to come visit your rig come summer for a photo shoot.
Ian B. has a 1GA Eclipse GSX and I thought he mentioned his rear bumper cover & tails was the same as mine. Either way a nice car above gotta love Florida. Long live the 1G DSM's that paved the way for most other cars.

The only difference between the Talon and Eclipse 1Ga rear is that the Eclipse had a body colour line running across beneath the tail-lights. Now, I believe the Laser had the line in addition to the centre portion being painted and not the same as the 'lens' covers. Whichever 1Ga tail it is, I'm fairly certain it's been painted, to cause us all confusion! Sweet looking car though!! Makes me want to paint my vintage driftwood coloured car black. 1GA Lasers have a black line under the tail lights and no lower lights or reflectors (they're in the lamp housing). The centerpiece is painted the same color as the taillight lenses and stamped with the pentastar, similar to the talon: IMO the 1GB Laser tail is the sexiest. Just two big brick tail lights and a red reflector strip running underneath. Shave the trunk keyhole and you're set (oh and pull off this ugly wing too): Sadly, we did get the worst 1G front bumper. Oh well.
