much props.. Like the article says "no respect" That is why I love my MSP. It deserves the respect once its put together right.. BIG CONGRATS ON THE SHOOT....
I have always felt that we get no respect...every Evo, SRT and WRX just looks down on us...so I just wanted to proof that we can still hang with them and have a decent looking and performing car. I'am so glad Modified had the balls to publish it. The other mags, I didnt even got a denial email or even a email saying we got your email!

Antoine...I did mentioned as I mentioned my group DFWmazdas...they just choosed not to print them...dont know why.(rei)

Bastards! Well...Thanks for mentioning the forums...Much appreciated! (2thumbs)
 
Picked up a copy yesterday and thought....hmmm...that looks familiar then I read on......CONGRATS man, car looks sweet as always, oh and thanks for all the info in the past. Great way to rep the forum.
 
Congrats vic, thats awesome! How did you get them to take photos? They fly someone out? I've heard that typically if your car isn't from SoCal they wont photograph it or feature it.
 
Thanks Daed! Modified is actually from Canada! They contracted out a local photographer. He does a lot of the magazine features in the area. He has done work for Modified, Dsport, SuperCrap, Import Tuner and HCI. He has all them covered.

Sweet. One other question, they said you dropped the car off for paint, and to me it sounded like the entire car was painted. But, was the paint just for the accent pieces (grille, wing) etc? Did they do a good job matching the paint?
 
Hehehe, that was one of the mistakes...I told them that Mansfield painted the grill, front spoiler, wing with Mazda Blazin Pearl paint...they assume it was the whole car!!!
 
lol. sounds typical. thanks for your answers, and props again. You now officially beat me in having the most well known MSP. I never stood a chance. Congtats!
 
Hehehe, it was never meant to be like that...I just wanted to show that Proteges can be good tuner cars.
