Thanks man

Nice build up man!!

 

[mazdaprotegeES]

Yeah I decided to go with the Pro kit for now. i wanna try em cuz they seem to be pretty good according to users. maybe later on upgrade to coilovers like your about to do, Yeah you should learn how to post some pics! i would like to see your car

I got the eibach sport lines on mine and love them! Ready to get coilovers though. I'm Rollin 17s with the hp blue struts and eibach sport lines and fenders are perfectly flush with tires. Just barley enough not to rub. Ill prolly keep this height and just add body clips to give it a lower look. Have you found and wheels you like yet. Wish I could post a pic of my car but idk how to do it off a iPhone. I do have a pic in my profile though its not great cause it was dark out. Maybe one day ill learn to post pics with iPhone. Lol

Just an fyi the bottom right hand corner with the " + next to the reply and the reply with " if theres multiple quotes like the last 3 just click the "+ button got the first two quotes then the reply with " button and you can reply to all three or four or ten quotes in the same reply so you done have to reply to each individual quote you know what i mean

 

[mazdaprotegeES]

I didnt know that thanks for telling me )

 

[speedracr79]

No problem i didnt know for a while till someone told me so no worries. Not only will it be better than replying one post at a time but it ill keep your thresd cleaner and shorter...haha

 

[stivine6]

no problem and i had to drill 3 wholes and i run the third break light wire throuh the whole in the middle. Oh and the msp wing you can find it on ebay lol for around 150ish, one of my friends is gonna buy it off there today for his protege.

Thanks for the info! Are there anymore on eBay? I've been looking but haven't come across any at all I'm looking for the spoiler and msp front lip eventually to complete the look. It's great to see the sp20 bumper, don't get to see many of those around, my favourite part is the huge round fog lights

 

[mazdaprotegeES]

Yeah i will send you a link later today. And the front lips are rare but if i come across one i will let u know. And i love the sport 20 bumper also, makes my car look bigger and newer.

[mazdaprotegeES]

Got a package lol
Grimmspeed gold paint for my wheels. ill be painting em when it warms up over here.

 

[mazdaprotegeES]

Update! Another package arrived today.
Eibach Pro kit, lowering springs. (working on painting the rims this weekend)

 

[speedracr79]

To bad your not closer we could powder coat your rims instead of paint them. But springs will make the pro look so much better man pics when installed

 

[mazdaprotegeES]

yeah powder coat would be much better but hopefully the grimmspeed spray paint cans will work fine. I will post pics up when i get everything installed.
