1999 Mitssubshi Eclispe RS Owner - Danny Gonzalez
Attending
shows is just a way of life for most of us. The long
drives lead to sometimes even longer days, awaiting
the awards ceremony. However, it’s all worthwhile
when your asked to have your ride featured in a publication.
This was the case when I first saw Danny Gonzalez’
sitting next to his 1999 Mitsubishi Eclipse at Extreme
AutoFest in Las Vegas, Nevada. Danny had the standard
things we look for when seeking rides to feature.
It had a sense of style, you could say it had nobility,
but there was just something that pulled me closer
for a better look. Though Danny’s ride isn’t
finished and he still has a long list of things to
complete there was more than enough to classify it
as sinful. Painted vibrant orange with gold pearl
may have been the first thing to catch my eye, but
there was so much more. Danny had added a JT Autostyle
front Evo-5 bumper, custom roof scoop, and a orange
candy colored carbon fiber hood. Blitz side skirts
and rear end kit were also added and molded with 3-inch
fender flares. Shaving the door handles and smoothing
the rear bumper gave Danny’s Eclipse a clean
and smooth look. To add more curb appeal and style,
the rear has been fitted with a Wings Man aluminum
wing, carbon fiber taillights, and custom reverse
lights. As you open the Lambo doors to the interior
you notice a two tone black and orange interior with
painted panels, GPS Navigation System, Diamond plate
floor mats and bucket racing seats. An in-dash head
unit pushes the deep sound through a Dicols Audio
Amp and two 15-inch Autobahn subs built into the custom
trunk. Under the hood NOS and a cold air intake system
were installed along with an OBX dual exhaust exiting
out the back. Keeping everything on the ground are
a set of 19” R1 GTR10 Hyper black wheels. Without
a doubt Danny has one sinful ride and would like to
thank his teammates from Team Sadistic for the work
and help they have provided. With more custom work
slated for the future, Danny’s ride is one to
look for in upcoming auto shows.
