I considered buying em from Canada, or even searching some Canadian junk dealers online. But I'm looking for a more satin/flat finish on mine. It looks like the Canadian P5 headlight housings are simply moulded in black plastic... not painted. Correct me if I am mistaken?

<B>Rawny:</B> Headlights came out awesome man, but it begs the question... is there anything we can do to black out the fog lights? Or will that render them useless...

Hey, don't forget to post some pictures of your new bumper once it's installed!

September 2002 is when my car was manufactured. Any way of knowing the exact day?

I've been wanting to do this for a while too. I knew there'd be quite a process, but it involves removing the front bumper?? Perhaps it just sounds more intense than it really is. A step-by-step would be very helpful. Anyone, please email me or contact me on AIM so we can talk about this awesome...

Ya know, I've been seriously thinking of getting a video surveilance system for my driveway. Luckily nothing has happened to my P5, but a while back when I was driving my '87 Ford Ranger some punks decided to throw chinese food all over the hood/windshield area. :wtf: Same scenario... I was 99%...

Hmm... I've never heard of anything like "valeur a neuf" at all. :confused: Here in the US I have my regular auto insurance which insures my vehicle up to its current book value (KBB/NADA). Should something happen to the car where damages exceed the value, the insurance company considers it a...

<B>Diligent Fish:</B> Nice picture, man. That's the scenery you need - a snow-capped mountain - for a white car to really look good. Where'd you get those shiny rims?? Far as I knew the stock rims were all that flat aluminum color. Welcome to the board! :D

Meow. :D

Yeah guys, big meet on July 13th in the front parking lot of Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, MA. Scheduled meeting time is 1:00pm. After we hang for a while (give a fair amount of Mazda owners time to show up) we're gonna find some other fun stuff to do. Possibly an antique/classic car show...

Yeah it's funny, when I got out of my car today I realized that the only thing I adjust is the A/C fan speed. Not always all the way off, just down from "4" so it doesn't blast hot air in my face next time I start 'er up. Yeah it's been hot here lately... been cranking the A/C all the way up to...

When I first got my P5 (mind you, it is my first brand new car) I was anal about setting all the buttons, knobs, etc back to their default "Off" positions. But as time wore on (maybe a week!) I thought to myself, gee... I wouldn't adjust the drivers seat to the factory position every time I get...

zcast: Sounds like you've got quite a process there. But hey, you do what you gotta do! And you're right about Simple Green. I work at Home Depot in Norwood, MA and we get some of the toughest stains. I got bored today ( yes... I worked the 4th!! :mad: ) so I started cleaning things. The...

I've noticed the same sort of noise coming from my wheels. Haven't experimented or paid attention to which direction I turn when it happens... but it only happens when making a reasonably sharp turn (which are always at 20mph or slower). To the dealer I shall go as well, and I plan to let them...

Just hit 10,000 miles today. Was coming home from work, on Route 1, just past the I-95 Exit 9 entrance ramp. :D I've had the car for 189 days (just over 6 months) which means I drive, on average, 52 miles/day. Wow.. hehe. 10,002 miles on the odometer by the time I parked in the driveway...

Hmmm... trade my P5 in for a MazdaSpeed... hmmm.... :D

Happy Birthday! :D

Let's see.. I got the car in late December. It's now late June, so I've had the car for roughly 6 months. Last I checked the odometer (since it's usually on Trip A for gas mileage awareness) I was at about 9200 miles. That's just over 1533 miles/month. Yikes, I better slow down... mileage will...

Hey man, I feel for ya. I got rear ended by a Ford Expedition when I had my '94 Honda Prelude. Shoved me into the truck stopped in front of me, totaled my poor car. :mad: But hey... that's why I ended up getting a P5. :D

So from the looks of it, you folks all have either 2001 or 2002 models. Not that it helps you any, but it might be interesting to note that my 2003 Protege5 hasn't given me any strange brake noises at all. This might mean they changed their factory rotors/pads or the brake setup such to avoid...
