Finally Got Some Pics

:
Mazda Protege 5
It has been a long time since my car has been clean enough to take pictures of. I haven't taken any since I got the new rims, delete covers and filler strips. Hope everyone likes!! (thumb)

I woulda gone with darker wheels if you're keeping the car all black. It would look very pimp to have the center of the car (up the middle of the hod, onto the roof, and maybe down the hatch if you want to (make it easier to keep clean)) with Sunlight Silver Mica and paint the wheels the same color. I'm like 80% sure no one has ever done it that way before, and that would be very hot.

I would lose the eyelids too. They work on brighter colors, but on black proteges they just make the car look depressed. Just IMHO though, you do what you like. I'm not criticizing, just lettin ya know what I think(cheers).

Yea I am going to do the rims darker. Like an hyper black. I have thought about a stripe but I am trying to afford a turbo kit first but I will most likely repaint the whole car titanium grey. And I got the eyelids because they match the carbon hood.
 
your p5 looks really clean, and I think it looks better to if you painted your rims dark.

I can't wait till I my delete covers arrive....

Me like the contrast with the wheels. Are those from Rishie?

Yea they are from Rishie. I bought the rims from Profiver so silver was my only option. Other wise I would have gotten bronze.

I am going with the stock msp T25 turbo. I just want something small and reliable running 6-7 psi.
 
Nothing better than a glossy black car. (thumb) Have you thought about blacking out the side markers? Makes a huge difference in the stealth dept.

good choice, the T25 is a great street turbo imo! With the right mods and proper tuning your car will fly! (thumb)

Yea I have but I really like the jdm amber look. I want to change the lens on the fender to the amber one. But can't find any.
Gotcha.
 
Looking good Bryan (thumb)

P.S. Where are your foglights? (boom07) Where'd those covers come from?
