Give me about a month for more pics......i'm in the middle of some big projects right now with the darn thing.

4 to 5-lug, disc-brakes all around
full beige to black interior
CF hood/Trunk
DG Lip & 03.5 lip......gonna switch it up every so often
New Suspension
new wheels
Some Fiberglass work
and all sorts of little things.

seen your white MSP conversion and thought i'd chime in, show some support for the white sedans.
 
Damn man, you're doing big, like I wish I could. haha.

You got an air ride or what? I hope your car doesn't just sit like that on its own. haha.

You got your own thread? I'd love to follow the progress as time goes on.
 
Had an air-ride, just wasn't a reasonable choice for a daily driver.

As for my own thread.....nope. I'm more of a lurker on forums, i read a lot....but rarely post now. My car has been in progress for a while, so i didn't post much pics of anything. But yeah, progress is starting to pick up, so pics might be up soon, probably in this thread, or the 3rd gen thread. But i might go custom with the paint, so i might not be able to post in the white protege thread afterwards. haha.

Never had an air ride, what about it wasn't wise for a DD?

I'm subscribed to both threads so I'll be watching out for you and don't paint it some other color, do some tight ass white with pearl or something. Not too many white protys around ne more you know? haha.

looks good xDJ DUBx and shorebroke :)

repping the white proteges!

Thanks man, I just painted my wheels black today, will be posting pics up when the exterior of the car is decent. :D
 
how much the 4 to 5 lug swap cost?

I wanna do one.

Do you have the correct reinforcement bar or did you make the stock one work?
 
i bought a wrecked P5 from someone in my area for $200.

i like to think i made my money back with the conversion.

and what reinforcement bar are you talking about? bumper reinforcement, i just chopped my existing one to make it fit. Probably not the smartest thing, but i was on a budget back than. And i had a good sawzall, haha.
 
Nice, the 5 lug conversion is well worth it :)

What's next, some racing harts?

my friende got an 03.5 MSP, and he's got the racing harts on now. He plans on upgrading in the future, so he said he'd let me know when they become available. As for now, P5 wheels will suffice.
