What have you done to your P5 today?

paid 100 bucks for it on craigslist in perfect condition... then i had the center painted black along with the grilles and had the sides done blue to match the car

That is a sweet deal.

I never find any kind of protege parts on CL, all honda stuff :(

I don't have much luck either. I did find my Blizzaks on there and a possible set of Blizzaks for the wifey's MPV.
 
Not so much for the P5 yet...but I got hired for my first job at Americas Tire Co. So now the whole family can get tires on discount! :D
 
Only thing you need to know: N/A P5 can't make decent power, unless you invest in over a few thousand dollars but even then, you'd make a lot more power for less by going turbo.
 
lowered it in photoshop. real drop in april

New year's eve was nice to me, my gf totaled her car and it was all her fault, then when I was parked at a friend's house a box spring fell on my protege and busted one of my taillights. Looks like I need those taillights, JDMBullet.

I was getting a little tired of the tinted tails, I put clearcoat on top of them which messed the finish up a little and never liked the outcome that much. I think I want to candy these tails all red.

Look's good man love the color of the wheel's.

Off topic saw an 03 p5 yesterday at a dealership auto 73k miles and they wanted $8700 for it I was like wtf.It was black with leather interior whoever had it before took care of it tho.Right next to it was a black msp for $8900.
 
installed all my LED interior bulbs. Now i need to order some for the taillights. I red out'd my turn signals on the tails and most of the reverse. Used red acrylic paint from the hobby store. pics later.
 
Bought my mom spark plugs and gapped them to spec. Half way through I realized I never gapped mine because I was stupid back then. Anyone know the correct spec for our P5? Gosh I feel stupid.

I finally got around to fixing my headlights, the clips where broken, so my bulbs where just floating around :). made my own clips with 1/8 thick aluminum. drilled a hole in them for the screw, and the bent the end of the rectangular aluminum piece so that when i tighten the screw it will apply pressure on the light bulb. Works great, I can finally drive at night and see :D
