Have just given the ol girl a bath today and noticed the NSF plastic trim on bumper (which meets the wing trim) was a bit loose. Drove 4 miles, got to my destination and it has decided to leave the car DOH!
Anybody know what the part no is and are they still available from Mitsubishi or has anyone on here got a spare? Preferably in indigo blue :)

I'm not sure if you will get the arch extensions first of all, and then to find them in the colour you are after... I went all the way to Birmingham to get my Recaro Interior, and at the same time got myself two rear black arch extensions at £50 a corner... because I had the wrong wheels before and had to hack my old arches, but was not happy with them in the end.

IF you are willing to travel, Garage DKU in Birmingham have loads of VR4s breaking. I took the entire Recaro interior (absolutely everything) with MOMO steering wheel from a black VR4, that had a whole load of other parts available.

Thanks tjeyaseelan for that info, I will contact DKU, see what they've got. Good excuse for a road trip to stretch the vr4's legs (with petrol tanker in tow :) ).
Need to source a front and rear bumper and poss a tailgate too, more £'s :(

you can get front set for £120+vat from dealer. rears are a nightmare for me at the moment. they quoted £155+vat each side for me !!!!! im having to look into it more think the rear kit comes with quarter panel bumper extension.

I have a spare set, but it's a copy, so made of fibreglass. 50GBP for the set (includes shipping to UK!).

Here you go!

On the top of the photo I have added an original one for comparison (to my eye, they are very much alike).

No, just these rear extensions.
