Some Pictures of my P5

[Boostedxt]

Here you go guys. Had a modified Forester Turbo before this. Sold it and bought the P5 and a bike.

Had it for 1 year to the day....I want to buy some rims for it and keep stocks for winter set, and some springs. I am new to the whole Protege5 (uhm) thing so any help is appreciated.

Here are the pictures....

i would've kept the Forester XT personally. Once you start touching the P5 you won't be able to stop!

^ yup

Well here was the deal...They gave me the same amount on the trade as I paid for it and it had 32K miles on it. I left the dealer paying $200 less a month for payments ($169 a month for the P5), a check for $14,000 in my name, and my insurance dropped from $1100 for 6 months to $900 a year. Colorado sucks big time for insurance....no tickets either, nothing on the record.

I ditched the XT for this..I have 3 toys now because of it. 2 bikes and the P5.

nice, looks like you got yourself a good deal. the p5 is a great car, you will enjoy it.

Smart trade. Bikes are good.

Love the last pic too. The orange dashlights were half of what sold me on the ES.

I highly recommend Espelir springs. Got mine on last weekend. Perfect drop and great handling. You might want to go ahead and pair them with Tokicos. Or you might make it 12 months on your stock struts if your car is only a year old.

To give you a couple of ideas - seeing as you chose the right colour - here are a couple pics of my baby.

Thanks guys....

Here my thinking:

Rota Actions in Gold or Bronze
Eibachs
Carbon Hood
And maybe a kit with a lip and a new small rear wing
Some bigger brakes up front to fill the rims in.

First things first: Rims and suspension.

Just to let you know AODfan is having a sale on k sport coilovers for i think is 725 shipped or 775 i cant exactly remember but you might want to look into that. personally i have espelir springs and tokico hp's on the p5 and well its a good difference. if you have any other questions youve come to the right place!

I am liking the Tein SS springs on that web page of yours. Do you work hand in hand with those guys?

I am liking this place already. Lots of useful info and helpful people.

A friend of mine has the eibachs and tokico illuminas (5-way adj.) on his P5, and I really like the combo; it's likely what I'm going to go with when I have an extra 1g I don't know what to do with.
