Ya im headin to home depot to find some plugs now and no I disnt break the badges lol they came off rather easy... And as for the mirror its a WINK mirror go on ebay and search them got it for 20$ shipped. Best mod iv done so far, no more blind spots and its great for when I have my kids in the back lol you can see everything

i got the bracket for wink to keep my visors but damn mirror moves down too much :/ can barely use it need to figure something out with it

 

[visiongt9506]

Lol mine shakes a little bit but not to bad I dont have a sub so I dont have to worry about that

 

[visiongt9506]

got my new tires in i decided to go with 195/45 16's i picked up from online tire.com all 4 for $290 shipped. they have smaller side walls than my old tires so now the car sits a tad bit lower ( will be lowering even more this weekend ). also sucks now becasue the smaller side walla means more wheel gap =(

and i also got some yellow 9005 bulbs for my high beams...

 

[visiongt9506]

got a cx-7 antenna, looks so much better than the stock one

 

[visiongt9506]

got a chance at the of the day at work to lower the protege a little more... let me know what you think
now i just need some 5mm spacer to make the wheels 35 offset or maybe ill go 8mm

Look's good keep the wrx lip you just have to know how to pull it off. As far as the badges on the back go bondo would be going about it the wrong way the hole's need to be spot welded in and then grinded down

 

[visiongt9506]

thanks. and ya im deffenitly keepin the chargespeed lip, for a little while i was ganna chage over to the other wrx lip but im keepin this one. im just puttin plugs in the holes for now and using touchup paint to color match for now, i need some body work done to the car so when that time comes im goin to have them spot weld the holes

 

[visiongt9506]

nice car but what happened to the fog lights?

The foglights do not work with the MSP lip without modification of the lip, so I am assuming he left them off for that reason.

 

[visiongt9506]

ya I put yellow overlays on the stock fogs but I dodnt want to fab the lip so I left them off

 

[RicoP5]

looks good! and ^ ill be doing the same soon. just need to find fog deletes

 

[visiongt9506]

Then got a civic lip giving to me and custom fitted it to te bumper

Then plastdipped rear bumper and lip

I just removed roof racks today so I will post pic tomorrow ... I like it a lot better

 

[visiongt9506]

Also did this to wink mirror to match my wheels and valve cover

 

[bwortner]

Painting the mirror was a nice and unexpected touch. thinking about doing anything in the dash or center console the same way?

 

[visiongt9506]
