hey all, some help needed for 03 p5

besides the msp lip, are there any polyurethane lips/front bumpers out there, or other durable products, that will have a perfect fit? i had a kaminari kit and that was a perfect fit and great quality. looking for the same. ive seen some subaru lips, but that seems to be an addition to a lip not on a stock bumper.

any thoughts on a rear lip/bumper also.

thanks
 
There's a buddy club 2 kit, dg motorsports urethane lip, some lip they sell on Amazon (I think bikingpro might've had it on his car for a bit) the autoexe lip, and that's all I know of. The chargespeed Subaru lip is an add-on to the 03.5 MSP lip. There's also a JDP replica lip if you can find it.
 
Just bought the subaru s204 lip. It's more a splitter than a lip, but from the pics I have seen, it definitely adds to the P5 front. I'll post pics when I get it installed.
 
How do they fit though?
And a pic when u have one would be great.
I got buddy club sideskirts coming, but not a fan of a fiberglass front bumper. Fit is isually awful and I WILL break it

my lip was a Canadian made front lip.. similar are offered online, but i would not recommend it as they are heavy and since they mount under the bumper and are made with fiberglass they shatter easily.

JDP replica lips are still available from the person who offered them before..
 
Mintblue makes a killer looking front bumper.

What kind of style are you looking for? Don't forget there's 2 style msp bumpers there's the mp3/msp bumper with fogs then the 03.5 bumper without fogs. The mint blue bodykit looks awesome but it wouldn't look right unless you got the fenders to go with it...
 
i have a bc2 front bumper for real cheap. i'd trade your stock p5 front bumper for aftermarket bc2 body kit bumper

I thought the fenders were stock, doesnt the mintblue kit use the exsisting lines of the car to compliment the kit?

But Mintblue is 100% raw sex
 
the MintBlue "Bumper" is only an add-on to the stock bumper. that crease you see that runs across the front is the seam for the lip addition. fenders are stock. side skirts are replacements for the stock ones. and they also made a rear skirt that only fits the JDM rear protege5 bumper, which is shorter than the USDM version.
 
i'm sorry guys but im not a huge fan of the mintblue kit.. i dont like the pointyness on the lower front bumper

This is not tru, there was a guy up here with a USDM Mint blue kit on a classic red p5 hethen sold it to a guy with a yellow p5. Apparently they were SUPER rare, like one of 3 usdm kits. Maybe it was 1 of 3 in Canada but still rare.

i dont really want anything to outlandish. the msp lip is about right but finding one seems to be a task
 
dont think i want a full bumper kit. fit is never right and if its not poly, i have no desire to mess around with it

Yeah Go with Duraflex there the best and most Reliable. There made of Great Quality and there really durable there made of Plastics and resin materials mixed in with some Fiberglass and they dont just Brake Either Here check out this Site and see for yourself http://www.duraflexbodykits.com/2001-2003-mazda-protege-speedzone-front-100374-duraflex-p-31870.html

I have an MP3 front splitter that looks super subtle, but I don't know if you're looking for something so mild.
