and i say turbo the car... im doing mine hopfully this weekend

Those would be awesome if I wasn't planning on buying lowering springs from a friend of mine for $75.
And turbocharging the car is a possibility for the future. I haven't really figured out how long I really want to keep the car for, so I don't want to put a whole bunch of money into it just to sell it.
I'm sure once I get the things I want to get done done to the car I'll be more reluctant to sell it.
Right now my main goals are a P5 bumper and rear lip, and the lowering springs.

that would make it look 10X better, or you could go with a msp body kit, might be easier to fit

P5 bumper and MSP bumper are the same minus the side marker lights, side skirts are all the same. Hardest thing to find will be that rear lip.

I saw an 03.5 MSP at the local junkyard I wanted to pull parts from, and it's the only BJ Protege sitting at a U-Pull, and the only other MSP in town. Unfortunately for me though, the idiot who wrecked it tore up the front end. There's nothing left of it, so that dashed my hopes of that dream. But the rear bumper and spoiler are still there so I'm going to ask how much they'd want for the lip.
They won't sell the spoiler by itself, only with the decklid, which they want $160 for both. Then I'd have to get it painted to match the Sunlight Silver. I'm going down there this weekend so I guess we'll see what happens.

When I actually get my hands on the bumper, I'm going to get the fog delete kit to set it apart some.

The engine in it was too messed up when they got the car to resell anything. The engine was scrapped and just about everything on the front end was as well. The suspension is actually all still there, but I don't know what kind of condition the sway bars and such are in since the PO met a tree head on.

This came in today. Unfortunately I can't put it on yet because I'm still waiting on the mounting brackets I ordered. In the meantime I suppose I will paint it and have it ready to go on when they do get here.
