A+ for efforts and well done fabricating a genuine front bar to fit. Looks like mine now lol.

I cut a deal with my brother to paint it if i did up his lancer cc coupe.
the bar took me about 3 weeks to do.. as for the car, hopefully finished in the next month or two. just needs a bit of touching up.

As for my lancer cc coupe project for my brother, this is what i've done so far:

- VR4 jap motor
- CC GSR gearbox freshly rebuilt with a locker and converted fwd
- evo 3 wiring loom
- cc gsr computer socketed with tuning from meek
- cc gsr afm
- cc gsr front/ middle cross members
- evo 3 engine mounts
- new clutch
- new shock absorbers
- walbro fuel pump

got it running, and found out the head gasket is gone.. so it's coming out again :x
i'll try to get some pics up of it soon.

The front bar is evo3.

There are two options to have this look you can either:
a) Buy a fibreglass copy (around 500 bucks) which is already moulded to suite the cordia and only requires mounting or
b) You can spend a shit load of time modifying an original evo bar for a much higher quality result. This car has the good stuff.

Fibreglass is brittle and tends to crack over driveway ownage (I go threw one a year lol and yes I’m slowly building a colloction). With the genuine modified you do not have this problem!

No, it is a evo 3 copy. I've modified it to fit a cordia. Meaning chopping, fibreglassing, bogging, and making mounts for the bar to attach to. Its fibreglass..

My old body kit that I made was a pulsar N14 or N15, can't remember..

Nice! sprayed in 2k or acrylic? What workshop taking it to? For tuning?

Going to respray my red cordia when I get around to it. Not sure where I should be getting new trim and trim clips from though.
