Sport20 Pic Thread

I know we have a 99-00 pic thread, but it would be cool to get all the Sport-20 Protege's in one place too. If you have a Sport-20 Protege, real or wanna-be, post your best pic(s)!

Damn I wish she was still in her glory... I won't show you how she looks now... it's painful. (whitepro) --> (sad1) --> (beer)

well I'd say start at the top, but here's the just of it:

http://www.msprotege.com/forum/showpost.php?p=2214474&postcount=93

As of now, the hood is re-painted white and the nice muffler w/tip is off sitting in the trunk, waiting for me to take the domesticated (quiet/ugly) one off and weld it back on. I just sold the CF mirror covers and it's a constant battle to keep the ass-end clean from the soot from all the oil I'm burning... Not to mentiont that she groans and creaks like an old b****... it's depressing.

On the up side, when the spark-plugs are not fouled and the engine runs smooth, its so much fun to drive... I'm gonna miss her when she's gone.

hrm...im really sorry to hear that...but its a very nice looking car none the less! youve done a fine job!

Looks great Sweet3rdgen. The 18s and the lip is gonna look great on your car. I totally feel you with the snow tires too. I have mine on my stock alloys, so the car is not exactly show-worthy with them on! I love the kit and car. Keep up the good work buddy

Hey FlyinHawaiian , thanks for the comment, and just to mention that a few months ago I looked at your ride and that's what make me want the JDM front bumper. Yours look so sweet !

(sorry for my english it's my second language )

 

[99 Pro]

Looks good dude. You from Quebec?

Well I am honored that you took my car as insparation for yours, that's probably the biggest compliment you could give me. Thank you.

As for your english, it's perfectly fine. (Which is more than I can say for my spelling ^^)

Just curious, what material is the Sport 20 front bumper made of?

Edit: Nevermind, just saw that they are made out of Urethane. How do the bumpers hold up to dings, etc.? Urethane is much better than fibreglass right?

 

[truplayax14]

urethane, i think i am going to get a sport 20 bumper, grill and an autoexe lip. Since I saw Sweet3rdgen's pro, all of that will look good with blacked out headlights.

 

[99 Pro]

Anyone have a black Protege with Sport 20 bumper? Pics?

[FlyinHawaiian]

^^ There we go! Keep them coming boys (& girls)

BTW Clint, the car is b-e-a-utiful. I love the wheels, I'm thinking of getting the ASA version of the BBS RS-GTs for mine once I get the 'ol girl into show mode. Damn I love that kit!

I'm thinking this needs to go beyond a picture thread one day... We need to get as many of us Sport-20s together as we can and do some photo-shooting/meeting. What a sight that would be is we could get at least 5-10 guys with the kit all in the same place!
