Nice, looks like it's ready to rally race
Those are your stock wheels, correct? If so...what did you use to paint them? I want to do that to my stock ones.

Like mentioned above you should shorten those so they don't touch the ground at all or there will be a good chance they will get ripped off. Even if not it just looks bad to have them drag the ground, rally cars don't even do that.

did a hella good job on the whels looking at those pix. I messed up on my clear coat.
Nice..would you mind telling me how to do that in a more detailed way?
I would like to paint mine before I put them on my car...meaning before the snow hits up here.
i got a new mod done this morning. the front end deer mount.
it appears as if the roof is pushed back a little bit and there are dents and ripples in it. new front bumper, headlight, hood and fender def needed. not sure what is gonna happen though. well see.

oh snap dude glad your alright. musta been scary hittin it! hope you wont have to total it.
that deer is dead jeg.lol i went back after work to see if it was still there and sure enough it was.
luckily it happened two miles from my work so the cop let me cruise it right to my parking lot. tow truck came and picked it up and enterprise came and dropped off a rental for me. im getting a call on monday on what is going to happen with the car. half of me wants it to not be totalled but then the other half is eyeing up a speed3.lol test drove a white one today. loved it.
we will see what happens though.the deer literally almost came through my windshield. little lower and it probably would have. scary for sure, but i didnt see it at all so i didnt even hit the brake or turn the wheel.lol plowed straight through

if wud have sucked if it came inside ur car and was just stuck in there. id really be terrified to ever drive again.
yea i didnt even have time to react at all. like i didnt even flinch.lol waitin for the call from insurance.
in the mean time, i took pics of all the extra protege stuff i have so i should be starting a for sale thread tonight or tomorrow night. its a lot of stuff so hopefully i can move some of it. just giving everyone a heads up. it will probably be pickup or meet somewhere kinda deal for now until i hear a further word on my car. that will work best for me.

u want the MS3 dont you? ;-l
I strongly doubt its totaled, but these cars get no love to an insurance CO

oh the speed3 would be amazing to have.lol
the only reason i think they might total it is because of the cost to repair it. new bumper, hood, fender, headlight. good bit of body work to fix the roof since its bent in and the roof is rippled and dented. and paint on everything.lol it would be alot of work. and compared to what my car is worth cause it has a lot of miles for a 2003 is another factor. well see though.
editing pictures for the for sale thread right now though.

hey yall i really need to do something to the back of my car. it looks plain and sad. Im not sure if its because the rear bumper is off, and the damage to the rear fender, and how the trunk doesnt line up well all on the left side(ud have to look for it), or what. the right side on the other hand is about the same, but theres just no flaws. A also have pinstripping on the left side only. :- /
im thinking about getting a spoiler, or maybe a new rear bumper. im also gonna lower the rear a little bit more.
Heres a pic of my ugly fender, ill have to take some of the trunk.
