Hi folk,

it's me again.
One more question. Are this air channels in the hoods original from Mitusbishi or self made?

When it is original what is the spare part number of the hood for a silver Galant? Thanks a lot!

They are not original. I think someone has added that style of vent to their bonnet, but you can also buy that bonnet in fibreglass and carbon fibre. Have a look around on the web/this site. Remember that USDM are a slightly different shape to JDM.
I can't help with the part number, but also remember that the central part of the bonnet is lifted slightly higher on the facelift galants than the pre-facelift.

There are a few manufacturers producing that style of bonnet, basically its just modelled on the vents from the mitsi evo's.

This one is available here, but its expensive due to being carbon fibre, http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Car-parts-accessories/Mitsubishi/Exterior/auction-106674424.htm?p=48

Also, i think http://www.speedfactory.co.nz/bodykits/mitsubishi/galant.php do them as well in fibreglass, plus a different style as well.

Surely there must be a supplier closer to you than NZ though:baby:
