talk to aimee sp? at dgmotorsports <- thats the forum name...pm her or somethin to make sure thats the lip they sell im almost positive thats it is
 
who's ken??? and what lip are you talking about??? i've been looking at doing the most basic mods, like replacing my side markers, getting HID bulbs, painting calipers, but I don't even know where or when to start. i've got an appointment tomorrow at 2pm to get my tints and i got work in the morning so thats one lost day, but i'm hoping to get those small things out of the way friday. just don't know what i'd need.

as for the equipment, I already ordered one of the new pioneer radios that came out for 2004. i'm not in too much of a hurry to do much to the interior. it's the main reason i bought this car. the interior rocks compared to my cavalier. it's an economy car with a luxurious interior.:D but i'm messing around with positioning my pioneer cd changer, and my sub box.

i'm just gonna take it slow now. atleast till after the meet so i can actually see some mods up front and see what i want to do myself.
 
thanks, i've ordered a ton of parts, and just want to take care of the basics while i wait for all these deliveries to arrive. i need to know what bulbs the P5 uses for side markers, headlights, and fog lights. i don't know what matt meant by the lip on the grill to paint???

i'm taken it easy now on the mods, gotta get ready for my living hell to start up again when school kicks in next week.

.
see the black strip above the Flying M. thats either black or chrome on standard cars, or bodycolor matched on Mazdaspeed/ MP3 / JDM vehicles. matt painted his blue, and ken painted his yellow, you could do that for a small touch. there is a how to in the howto section.

hey shareef i wanna see ur car when u get the tints done
funny that you mention that. I went up to the guy today. I called up before I left and verified my appointment before i started my long journey to south holland (drive) . well i arrived, and wouldn't you know it. the owner just walked out for supplies. so i sat waiting, FOR AN HOUR :confused: , until he came back. i was ready to hand over my keys so i can leave cause i brought my cuz to give me a ride home ( i wasn't intending on sitting for the 3 hour job to get done). so i was getting ready to pay him when he comes up with a bill for $200 (hand) , here we go. i started explaining how i was told it would be $140 over the phone. he stated cause they were never told it was a hatchback. hmm, it said on the appointment sheet by my name PROTEGE 5. if someone out there has got a P5 sedan, I WANNA SEE IT. so i explain to him that when I said protege 5, they should have known it was a hatchback. in either case, i explain that i did specifically say it was a hatchback. then he says that they were never told it was a 4 door, he assumed it was a 2 door P5. once again, would someone please show me a 2 door P5. so i frantically explain that over the SAME phone call that i scheduled a tinting appointment for my friends' focus SVT (a 2 door) and that they quoted me $120 for his car, BECAUSE IT WAS A 2 DOOR. so i would pay $140 cause i had a 4 door.

the greatest part was when i kept countering his BS he just said he couldn't do it cause of the weather (poke) , i was wondering if he was brain dead. long story (not short i guess), he offered $170, i told him i'd rather pay $200 at a shop by my house then deal with that (moon)hole. i had a local shop quote me $170 which i will call tomorrow for an appointment.

some good news though. delivery for the cat-back is scheduled for tuesday, i'm off on that day (rockon) .
