yeah you are right they're 97-99 headlights. the 95-96 lights which are what i have are rounded as they face the middle. those on that car come to a point. but yes the back bumper is a 2ga bumper. and that spoiler...[sm=lame.gif]

No, I thought I knew the car personally.

Here was my thought process:

I spotted British dialogue in the post

I then saw the amber corners

Eclipse+England = only one guy

I rememberd the same ******* that sold my mom her GST also imported another black one, JUST like this.

Sent a PM, and found out they imported it from Japan themselves, so it couldn't have been from this *******.

EDIT: sk8 also has a point, never question moi

they imported a 2G from japan? For some reason I find that to be a lie. I dont know hy but I have NEVER seen a JDM eclipse or herd of one. I was always under the impression USDM mitsus were different. I mean none of them are even called the same name except the Evo

Be careful.

My moms was imported from Japan and I still had the original documents/window sticker for it.

I read the Mitsubishi mission statement for it. They said that it did so well in the USDM market, that they decided to try it in Japan. However, Mitsubishi were reluctant to make a RHD version, so they sold LHD Eclipses in Japan.

Differences were in the way the headlights and tail lights are wired. Notice the amber turn signals too.

No offence sebba but I still find that very hard to belive. I dont see it being a JDM car. maybe something ment for somewhere else like Au. Or somthing. If it were JDM I am pretty sure they would have made the car RHD for leagal reasons in japan. regaurdless of cost and success. I mean when we import vipers and vettes and stangs focus' ect arnt they all converted?
