damn ,............. that is da s*** body , it looks hot , and if u put a 03.5 front lip on better .

 

[protege_lx99]

that's awesome. Both cars are great : )
how did you modify the bumper to make it fit?

I bought it from a member on CPQ (Club Protege Quebec)

He made them with a P5 bumper and fit it on a 99-00 Protege. Then, he made some in fiber glass and sold them on our forum

is the color of the front bumper alittle off from the rest of the car?? or is it just me.....or is it just from the way the pic looks??

Great job though!! Looks nice!

it's the same color. All pieces were painted at the same time. It's just an illusion

pics taken on mont royal?

no, I took them at Quebec city !

Love it! AWESOME JOB FRED!

However switch the twin-tip muffler for a better-fitting one asap!

I could do the move ! maybe next summer!

I don't have any problems with the police with this muffler and I don't want to have

is that back window is half tinted?... other than that nice and clean

the backglass is 20% tinted

Props for making the bumper fit first off, and second YES YES YES!!!!! Someone else who realizes how good Nakamichi is!!!!

the nak amp are so great ! especially for the price I paid ! 300$ CAN for the mono block and 250$ CAN for the 4 channels !

Here, in sound shop, they sell them 899$ each

Nice man !!!!!! Not to sound rude but couldn't u have just sold the protege and saved the money from the parts and paint and almost been able to get a MSP ?

None the less great work !!!

maybe but I wanted to have an unique car !

nobody else has an 99-00 as mine !

4 months later...but the paint job is awsome !

damn ,............. that is da s*** body , it looks hot , and if u put a 03.5 front lip on better .

the idea was present in my mind. but the car is so low, I don't want to scratch the lip all the time

thanks everybody for the comments ! i really appreciate

Did you use fabris paint or something on your door panels to make them black? I love how that looks.

on the gauge pod picture, why didnt you run the wires behind the gauge pod instead of in front like that?

The picture has been take on the day we install the gauges. The wires are now running behind the gauge pod. Don't worry, I'm very meticulous with my car, we no more see the wires now !

Damn I was going to comment on how nice the car looked then I realized I was the first one to do so... A while ago. I like the stereo set-up.

Where do you buy that Dynamat stuff? I need some for my car. I have JL audio subs also and it hits pretty hard.

I'm woking in an electronic store and we have dynamat. I bought it there.

I bought 4 square feet for the trunk (about 50$)

For the rest of the car (doors, rear deck, inside the trunk), I used B-Quiet. It's less expensive than Dynamat, and the thickness is the same in both material. I ordered it from b-quiet.com
