    What have you done to your P5 today?

    http://www.cleanmpg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=6282 Interesting review of LED headlights, even seems to be basically the same design as what you have. 30 something bucks and appears from the picture to be very similar. He sums it up as an excellent replacement for DRL's as they look great, are...

    LED headlights? I hope you didn't get the show only bulbs that look cool but put literally almost no light on the road.

    2003 Protege5 back from the brink: budget rebirth.

    How far did you disassemble the car? Did you remove door handles and everything? Did you paint it with the bumpers and hood on the car? Or how much of it was just carefully taping off window trim and what not? I am curious about the paint, since you said it went on thick, did you have issues...

    Seriously considering spray bombing to new ride (96 accord with 16 year old paint...) with the matte white they sell at all city paint. For sure keep us updated on reliability, I'll be waiting till warmer weather maybe even summer so I can afford to wait.

    Rico's build thread.

    Red seems to be rarely available outside of buying online. But besides black and white the only other colors I've heard of being available at local stores are yellow and occasionally red. Matte red finish? Hell yes

    Want to check out a p5 for me?

    It wasn't my insurance, it was his, progressive. Fought him all the way up to 4500! haha The worst part of it all (actually a great thing) is that a close friend's parents are practically giving me a car they have no use for. Picked up a 96 honda accord from them today and transferred the title...

    Want to check out a p5 for me?

    Unfortunately I have these pesky ethics and values that get in the way of fun and personal gain. They are only giving me I think 4150, I am hoping to at least convince them to add the cost of the new parts I just put on, brand new headlight, valve cover gasket, coils, wires, spark plugs, battery...

    To go flat black, or to stay silver?

    Flat red and flat white look FREAKING hot but doesn't say primer like flat back can if it's not done perfect.

    Want to check out a p5 for me?

    Car is totaled... I guess the investigator was able to get out there sooner than the agent expected. Also not getting as much for it as I would like so I guess I'll be going out of pocket somewhat more than likely or getting a worse car.

    I knew someone on here worked at Byers, couldn't remember who it was, thanks and good news Fiji. I go to Columbus to visit some of my cousins and friends from time to time, so I don't mind the drive at all. Jordysoso, I'm ok with a drive to a car, just would appreciate if a member could give me...
