Ironicly it looks cool.
The rear and rest is super gay though.

The front actually looks good, alot of effort seen. Didn't like the stupid rear liscence plate though.

WAYYYY too much time and money went into that.
Oh, and it goes without saying but, its an auto.

Its slow cause he only has 1 of the big ones, he is missing the other.
I am suprised by how that turned out, if it was a GSX.....

Not really.
Avenger is based off the Eclipse.
It'd be like doing a Silvia face on a 240.
You can also swap Stratus and later Eclipse front ends.

Minus the super sunk wheels/wannabe flares and the roof scoop and license plate mod from 1990, its not that bad. The front end actually looks nice...it just gets worse the farther back it goes.

Lol I know that, I'm talking about the molded fender flares/rear. Not exactly S13.4-status.

Haha, I want to see someone do a Ford Probe front on a Mazda MX-6 or vice versa. I bet its doable too.

Looks ok. If he would have left the rear end alone and got some different rims it would be way better.

yeah, oddly enough the avenger front end looks great. the rest of the car has so much fagatronics going on though that it's overshadowed.
conversions and shit like that are for queens anyway
and by that i mean trannies

Of course it's doable. They're the same car.
btw i think the avenger front end doesn't look half bad on the eclipse...
you guys are right about the rest of the car though. its complete garbage

despite those cars not being too popular.. i always thought those where good looking cars..
pretty crazy how everyone says they are the same car.. yet totally different body and looks you would never tell

I agree .. avenger front looks supricingly good but the molding shit is crap .. better if he didnt mold it, was a gsx, ran some manly 9.5 wide wheels with some flushness

The Eclipse, Galant, Stratus, and Sebring were built on the same assembly lines in Normal, IL. I am not sure of the current models. I assume the Eclipse and Galant are at least still built there.

The Avenger front end is nothing like the eclipse. They were both built in the same factory for awhile and some parts are interchangeable but its nowhere near as simple as a silvia 240 swap.

It has a reconstructed title because I purchased it with light front end damage prior to restoring it to its present condition.
Game off!!

I almost forgot the MX-6 existed. That looks rather nice, and I wonder if they make good beater cars. :2f2f:

did you guys peep out the super cool and effective roof scoop??

Car isn't half bad. Front end looks good, widebody is pretty nice. Getting everything molded, for a clean look. For the bad: Automatic, Non GS-X/T, license plate, rims, engine bay color. I guess the bads, outweigh the good.
