- Respray (whole car Scotia White) - about $2k for a decent one.
- Facelift Bumper - $300
- Facelift Lights - $100 a set (ish?)
- New side skirts - Depends
- New taillights - $100+ for decent set
- Service - Depends if minor or major
- New tires and rims - Anywhere from $400 with crap tyres to $2k+
- Mitsubishi Badge - SFA

Bar the tires, all of those things are optional and I'm in no rush to do it now. This was meant to be a project car and I am going to fill the car with after market goodies. May even do an engine swap for a turbo galant engine.

Would is still be worth it, or just pass?
You would still be better off getting a car with decent body and interior and doing an engine swap.
I just had to add it ......
