Hello everyone,

Stumbled across this site doing a search for CP9A Parts for Sale. My name is Alex. I own a 2006 Evo IX MR and a 1997 Mitsubishi Mirage(Lancer) that I am currently converting over to hopefully one day being a full CP9A Clone. As you can see in the picture it has a long way to go (And body panel adjusting haha) to finish just the outside of the vehicle. Just wanted to introduce myself and enjoy viewing your forms.

I am currently engaged and later on in the year after the wedding I will be trying to find a CP9A Hood, Headlights & Sidemarkers, and Front Bumper and Fog Lights to complete the outside of the vehicle body panels.

Thanks in advance for all welcomes.

Thank you guys for the warm welcomes. I def. will be looking for parts after the wedding is over.

Yea Emissions over here are terrible in California. When I put the 4G63T engine in this thing I'm going to have to source it from a California car so I have all the emission components to pass smog.

I'm going to be looking for more or less complete body panels. By Complete I mean the hood with the entire insulations under it and grill. Complete front bumper as in the front bumper, grills, fog lights. Again this isn't going to be until November or December but just giving the heads up. Thanks again if it won't be a problem when the time comes.

So long time no talk. I had to reboot my pc and lost all my website history and luckily came across the site again from my phones cell phone app.

Well an update I have the hood, head lights, and side markers on the car now. I have a front bumper on the way now to.

Only problem I'm told is the front bumper isn't complete. I'm missing the mounting bracket that you use to mount the bumper to the car itself. Would any of you guys happen to have one for sale and could ship to zip code 92563?

How's she's progressing
