Pics of My 2000 Protege w/ kit

[Protege2K]

My name is Greg, and I have had this car for a little over two years now. Starting modding about a year ago. Thought I would introduce myself since I am new to the forum. Hope you like the pics.

Coming Friday I will install the Pro Kit. Can't wait.

pics are broken

They were working, but Imagestation sucks. It works when it wants to.

 

[Protege2K]

See if this will work.

nice! nice! any plans to take the black side moldings off? i think itll look nicer. good work - chris

 

[Protege2K]

I don't quite know yet. I am on the fence about the subject. I think it gives the car some contrast. It might look a bit cleaner if I removed it and painted the handles and mirrors.

hey i see all the pics....anyways how about posting some good pics of the rear and front bumpers?..

For some reason, I love those headlights.. The way they come up into the hood just looks good.

Nice car.. Keep up the work! Personally, I think the side moldings would look better off. Especially with your body kit on there, which does not have a black line on it anywhere. *shrug* It's your car, and you've done good so far..

 

[Protege2K]

These are as good as I can do right now. I will be taking tons of pictures on Friday so I will update with better ones then.

Need to update this one with my new corners.

Wonder if that rear body kit section would fit the MSP... HRM.

I have had a few people recommend doing this, so I might take care of it tomorrow. Do they just kind of peel off? What is the best product to remove the glue residue that will be left with?

That is my favorite part about the kit. I think that rear bumper is just incredible.

 

[dominoy2k1]

damn that rear bumper looks cool...also yeah the side moldings have to go...will look much better IMO

 

[Protege2K]

I just removed the moldings. Now I have to take the glue off, what a b****. Good call though, it looks so much better.

 

[uclap5]

nice lookin ride. i agree with the sidemoldings thing, tho you may have to paint your handles now

 

[MP3skaterNC]

very sick looking car, good job so far.

t3ease, yes that rear bumper would fit them msp.

 

[Protege2K]

Yeah the handles are probably next on the list. Then I will probably have to do the M3 mirrors. The list just keeps going. Quick question, I want to debadge the rear and I was wondering what I fill the holes with.

Use WD40 (I s*** you not.) It won't hurt the paint at all, and works like magic!

PS - Car looks fantastic!

 

[MarkSpark]

Yeah I was gonna say paint the door handles, side view mirrors and also remove the DX decal. But it looks great. Good work!
