i have that sorted its all going to depend on cost as to whether i can afford to do it. im not in any rush just seening if they was a set for sale

i give them a look too thanks

Mark,
The OEM bonnet is actually quite expensive as it is made from aluminum and not steel like the NA ones.
It also has the Ralliart\Evo designation so it automatically costs allot more.

The bonnet alone costs around 800 bucks, you then need the scoops which are about 200-300$ then you need to paint the thing which can be another 200-300$.
Plus you will need to have new plastic clips around the thing so you can open it and close it, and have the windscreen washer jet hose mounted nicely, 50$
If you can be bothered with heat shields then add another 100-300$
That's around 1500-1800$
Which roughly corresponds to what Mitsubishi quoted me when i went to repair my vehicle.

If you source the parts from 3rd party you will need to factor in multiple shipping costs into your overall estimate.

If something were to happen to my car and insurance got involved again i would probably do it. but at the time of my accident I was really short on cash.

Where are u getting the rest of the bonnet from ?! Or are u going to cut urs?

I would be interested in seeing the overall result if anyone has gone down that path. obviously i would want someone to do it professionally as we have all seen my quality cable tie workmanship

Best of luck mate.

Thanks Daniel I think with my current plan it will only cost be about 1 k to do painted but it will be a progressive thing and take a bit of time to do

Not a bad price, remember Ofey did a group buy on bonnets last year, think they were $850ish. could ask him for his contact or if there is enough interest to do another

^ good idea but I don't want to risk posting an entire bonnet with out damage

As I said I'm in no rush just exploring a couple of options
