I have been lurking around this forum for some time and posting my .2 cents from time to time. well some history on my 2002.5 protege5; i bought the car from a military family and they were the first owners. I have every receipt for every oil change and maintenance done to her. I bought the car with 90,000 miles bone stock it now has 96,000 miles lol dont drive her much. It is an auto because my previous 8 cars were manual. i decided not to do anything to the car, but as we all know that doesnt work out. so here is some progress:
this is how i bought her:
i then did the fog light mod and did a write up on here(yes my foglight is cracked lol):
then i bought 6k hids and put on an accord front lip:
then i decided to paint my VC red:
i got the windows tinted 20% rear and 35% front, painted the rear valance and key trim as well as doing the evil M and getting soft surfboard racks( i hate getting wax on my seats in the summer time):
then i got a hell of a deal on some tein stech springs with struts for 100 bucks local. picked them up and put them on:
then i got a new kenwood head unit with aux port and an in car antenna:
yesterday i decided to do the headlight black out i thought they would look good on my car so i went for it after 3 hours of labor heres the results:
and this is what it looks like today(yes i know the lip is too short im waiting to get my money right and ill prob get a dg lip):
plans for it are new speakers, and a small 10 inch sub with a 600w amp. a new lip cuz the one i have is short. Some wheels im still deciding 17s or 16's..
let me know what you guys think so far!!!
