Engine bay, door jams, under trunk lid, and under hood paint matched as well!
My Varis widebody Evo 5 converted '98 Mirage
Ongoing project of mine for the past 5 years or so..
1998 Mitsubishi Mirage sedan
Varis Asso Evo 5/6 wider front and rear overfenders
Various carbon exterior pieces
Complete AWD 4G63T swap
Full Evo 5 front and rear suspension
Evo 8 brembos
Carbon door panels, carbon rear seat delete, various other carbon interior pieces
18x10 2-piece Volk SF challenge wheels w/custom carbon skinned lips
285/35/18 tires
A lot more stuff, just didn't feel like doing a complete mod list.
Car is currently taken apart and getting full color change paint job including engine bay and door jams to Honda Sonic Grey Pearl. Engine is currently at inline racing in Houston getting fully built and stroked to 2.2L. Aiming for 750-800whp with a FP Zero turbo.
Enough typing and onto pics..

Had some time today to swap in some OEM Evo 5 aluminum front LCA's which were much lighter than the Evo 4 steel ones that were originally on the car. Also threw on the old wheel and tire setup (square set of 18x10 old school 2 piece Volk Racing SF-challenges with 285/30/18 tires). The rear needs to be lowered more, which I will address later this week.

Starting to piece back the exterior to what the car looked like before the full color change.
These pieces are new, and add some more "spice" to the exterior. Carbon hood wind deflector and carbon hood duct/vent.
And before you ask, yes this is a show car. My track car build is my 2 door Suby, and my weekend warrior will be the GRC.

I really like the look of raw carbon fiber, and for the life of me I can't understand why those people with Deep Pockets who buy the supercars and hypercars by them with the carbon fiber bodies painted over, kind of a waste in my book.
Give me raw cf any day.
Even my mountain bike is raw cf, no paint.

Been awhile since I updated this. Been real slow with progress, but after waiting a damn year, my custom real carbon overlayed dash is ready for pickup.
Good thing it's mainly a show car as that bling will blind my ass trying to drive.
Also decided to get the front lip on my GC8 done up as well, because why not? 🤷
