Looks sweet I miss mine the kid who bought it from me was telling me how he gets a lot of compliments on it too lol.

 

[D-rock240]

Thanks man. Yeah your pro was nice, hopefully the new owner takes care of it.

You could try and find a blue speed for sale.

I might try to look for one this spring. So when you getting your windows tinted?

 

[D-rock240]

Eventually. I need to upgrade my suspension first.

 

[marshall-BJ-VE]

yeah those taillights gives you a better look... I thought msp and stock proteg were the same but I was wrong... 10000 times better looks from MSP taillights... nice upgrade D-rock

Next you need to do a 5 lug conversion and get some 3.5 rims .

Thanks Marshall, I noticed the difference a lot more than I thought I would.

Oh yeah. I have a few friends keeping tabs on local junkyards for a 01-03 ES to show up so I can get everything I need for the swap.

I could have sworn I saw someone in one of the forums that sells the MSP bumpers (and complete body kits) at discount prices, or am I just crazy?

Protegegarage sells the spoiler, skirts, lip, front bumper, etc together. I don't know if it comes with the front bumper reinforcement though.

I bought all my conversion parts from protegegarage.

And someone JUST told me to make sure to get the reinforcement piece...I guess I'll grab that from the dealershop. I'm not sure if I even want the spoiler yet...that part can wait. THANKS!!!

I got the reinforcement from protegegarage also its held on by 6 bolts and will use the same bolts as the original used its very easy. Well If i can remember I think they are studs but its used the same nuts and bolts I dont think I had to buy any extra hardware at all except some brackets for the front plate.

yo Derek. what's happening man? what's next for this creation? btw, i think you should de-badge..definatly. car's bumpin though.

 

[CantCMe]

I just checked the website and the reinforcements come with the package, but $1500?!?!?!?!?! DAMN!!!! Do you know of any sites that sell them seperately? I know the dealership wants about $250 for the front end by itself...the grills and fog lights are extra. I'm scared to even think about how much the side skirts would be at Mazda...I know if I go with ProtegeGarage it would be cheaper than if I bought all the stuff at the dealership, but gee whiz...

1500 isnt too bad imo and the car will look soo much more sexier lol.

I checked out the pics (and thanks for the link) and you're right...it would look ALOT better. I'm trying to do some other stuff too (amp racks, rims/tires, etc.) and I just can't see spendin' $1500 at one time on the kit...
