09-12 rear numper acquired!!
I'm so happy! Got it for like 80 bucks at a junkyard. Will need some repair and a repaint, but that was to be expected for the price.

Fully oem interior, it already looked really well but now it just looks brand new. The seats probably had the biggest transformation, I used tuff stuff stain remover on the suede AND leather and it made both look brand new.
Before you say anything about me using it on leather, I obviously started using it on the suede first, and it worked really well, but I accidentally left overspray on the leather and when I wiped it away it looked so much whiter I was shocked. I tried using it on the whole thing and oh my god the seats look brand new now. It got rid of all the discoloration and took off the layer of natural oils that they had on them (you can see the difference on the last picture, bottom part is after and upper part is before), they look like brand new matte leather. I followed it up with a leather protector/conditioner after. Anyway, really happy with the result, this product seems like magic.
Got an 07 GT with 46, yes 46k real miles for $5000 couple weeks ago, with that mileage I want to do what I've always wanted to do with this car, and here I present to you what that is.
On the left is how the car looks now, and on the right I've generated images of the exact look I want for my eclipse, I'm essentially going for a custom OEM look since I never liked the 09-12 front bumper.
Mods that I plan to do (as pictured)
- Paint front grill matte black
- Add fog lights, paint trim black
- Add the oem aero kit 06-08 front fangs
- Add the oem aero kit sideskirts
- Paint the roof glossy black
- Replace the rear bumper to an 09-12 gt bumper
- Dual exhaust
- Add the 09-12 aero kit rear spats to the rear bumper to tie in with the new sideskirts
- Maybe black spec-d headlights and tailights?? Not sure yet
Also want a good head unit, already found some with good specs for $300, don't want to cheap out so it's not laggy, I'll also have a rearview cam with it!
