Damn wrong answer... I 'm looking for a black mica protege to swap my cf hood for there OEM. My CF Hood is faded and needs some loving and I'm thinking bout selling my car so I want it to look the best with the least amount of money.

How much u selling ur msp for?

zumzumzoom03 · Jan 29, 2007

11k OBO. It has 75k miles and you may be saying the price is high. I am somewhat negotiable but I do have maintanence records. I have had the timing belt changed, new H&R Springs w/ all new suspension bushings($200), new front and rear motor mount(OEM), new clutch, new updated diff(not welded) also the previous owner lowered it and did not do an alignment and screwed the steering rack so that is brand new in the car, oh and I had the ECU flashed too recently. all and all about 3k-4k in recent maint bills of things you will not have to worry about. Only thing not really worked on it the engine, turbo. The rest is new parts. All done by Jack Giambalvo in York PA.

Do you have the factory body kit? If so, and if you still have it in about a month, we'll need to talk business...

zumzumzoom03 · Jan 29, 2007

Month sounds about right as long as nobody else jumps on it. The body kit on it is Wings West body kit. So around the headlights there are some fitment issues. I've heard you can get this fitted better but due to the maint bill have not been able to do that. Also the hood is pretty faded so that is another thing that was on my to do list. All and all the car has lots of potential and is even more rare due to the fact it's a msp and also the WW kit is not longer produced. Oh and I'm not sure how far you are from me but I do work in Taneytown MD. Willing to meet up sometime somewhere if you want.

I'm not sure how far that is from me, but I'm really close to D.C. (about 5 minutes). That's a bet...more than likely I would just put the factory kit back on, and I MIGHT still put the msp 03 kit on my 02 ES...we'll hook up. I don't mind driving!!!

That was my plan to if the I couldn't resolve the fitment issue. The paint on the body kit is still really good. Funny thing is before I had this car I had an '02 Emerald Mica (Green) ES Protege. Sounds like your on the same track as me. Just PM when you want to race I mean meet up. Taneytown MD is basically near the PA border so we can meet in the middle of MD somewhere.

That kit looks good on your car with the wheels and hood to accompany it

And if you sell the car, let me know if you'll sell the factory body kit (if it can be put on another Protege).

msp03.5 has it. I like his ride, but the fins on the front bumper really detract from the look.

Ok, that was crazy running into you tonight. Were you coming off 795 from Reisterstown when you saw me? That was some freaky timing! I thought it was just some guy in a Taurus that was on my ass, thats why I shot off at the light. I'm sure once your car is on the road, it will be me trying to catch up to you.
