I agree. I like those kits, but think they look kinda pointless on sedans. They only work for coupes. IMO
 
Hes nice. Weve been talkin back and forth for a few days. I would rather make my back doors open like the rx-8 doors.
 
IMHO, pointless. I could understand the fact that he's trying to be unique, but in the end it's still a Protege. I mean, how stupid does that sound, "Hey guys, I drive a Protege with Lamborghini doors." (This applies to any economy car) He should have just bought a turbo kit.
 
I like it!

I would like to see one done with all 4 doors like that!
Do you have any better pics of this car?
Matt:)

The cost of that door kit, in a few hundred bucks tops... I see add's for them all the time in most Import magazines. There on Ebay everywhere. Im sure the money wasn't a toss up between a turbo kit, or Lambo doors. Its like $200, vs. $2500. Maybe he should have just bought the Lamborghini instead of the protege then... But yeah its still pointless on a Protege, although, unique :) To each his own.
 
i know justin, lol, he's the guy that has a killer audiobahn system dayum, he said he had somethign instore for tara (aka dragonbabe) come the next show but i cant believe he did that wow thats friggin cool.. anyways thats pretty badass
 
if u guys even knew... the inside of his sedan if its the same guy is phenominal (sp) some ppl go in different order its not all about the outside appearance yanno.
 
dana, thats the guy that had the killer audiobahn setup in his trunk with the tweed roof from carlisle.
 
hey I am from Baltimore, but I don't think I've ever seen that car around?? or a house with that many garage bays for that matter.. haha.
 
Hey All,

Yes, that is My Car. I didn't go for the turbo kit because I am not in it for speed. Though engine swap has crossed my mind. It's the 1.6L so the engine mounts need to be upgraded, and I have heard they are hard to find. If I wanted speed I would have bought a new car for that. I love the MSP Orange, awesome. Yeah, I have heard mixed reactions about the doors, I just thought it would be something different, not 2 many around. And, true I am from the Baltimore Area, I live in Carroll County(if you know MD). And I do attend local shows, should be at Sudden Impact, VIP, and FullFX car shows. Later



PS:

Hey Ryan, Hope that you are having fun in TN, sorry you couldn't see this first hand. Tara and Derrick both saw it at their show(first time) and Derrick flipped out. And yes I plan to do the rest of the interior over the winter so it will be a fully wrapped interior.

Thanks, Motegi, I am also fixing that up this winter because the ports fire into the trunk, and i want to change it around so they fire into the cabin that way I go deaf faster.
