What have you done to your P5 today?

[mx-p5]

yes you can, but it requires cutting up the MSP lip to allow the lights to fit through

 

[JDM_Pro5]

Doesn't look as good as I had hoped ...That school looks familiar. I have done work at a majority of schools around North Carolina...then again, a lot of schools use the same blueprint

 

[mx-p5]

yeah, i had seen that as well and don't care for it

I mean, it works, but it doesn't look like it fits

 

[JDM_Pro5]

It's because it's hidden. I was hoping the bolt on the back of the fog would reach far enough you could get the nut on the backside and it still sit in the lip well

 

[RicoP5]

you could probably make it work like that with a bit of work. i sorta like it. now the thing is finding the lip lol.

 

[JDM_Pro5]

Yeah, I wouldn't mind running it like that to have the fogs and the MSP lip. I still running stock height so I pretend I'm a rally racer lol. My car goes through rivers and everything

 

[RicoP5]

lol not me im really thinking about an air ride to slam it real nicely lol

 

[JDM_Pro5]

I do plan on Tein s springs and 17" wheels, but I should probably wait till spring so the snow's all gone

 

[bikingpro5]

I have not done anything to my Protege5 in a few weeks besides tear it apart and put the car cover over it. However i am truly enjoying my new winter beater AWD FTW

nice right now im on pro line eibachs on evo x rims 18x8.5. need to roll my fenders a little more. then redo the tint on the car and get it re painted, a few parts are fadded. got a new radio to put on and then go from there.

 

[RicoP5]

I'd recommend a DG lip if you want to keep the fogs.

will look into that

Yeah, I had to hunt through your recent posts to try an find a pick of the evo X wheels on, great idea, nice wheels. I wouldn't mind some gunmetal X wheels. I plan on getting the gunmetal sportmax 941's in 17x7

 

[RicoP5]

oh should of asked me. i would of posted a pic here lol., and that should look good

 

[mx-p5]

here's the DG lip with fogs

 

[JDM_Pro5]

Yeah, you can. But, like everyone else said, it just looks odd. I'd recommend a DG lip if you want to keep the fogs. Or, if you're crafty, you can fit fogs in the lower, center grille. IIRC, someone used to make and sell one on here..

I've lost interest in the DG grill, and I like the placement of the fog lights. I have a primed MSP bumper in my extra room waiting paint. The basic bumper is a little boring for my taste so i've been looking at all the possibilities.
DG lip
MSP lip
diffusers
I think I may go like O.G.Sk8er and get the 06-07 Subaru Chargespeed Splitter and fit it to the stock bumper. looks good and it ships for about $80

 

[RicoP5]

here's the DG lip with fogs

looks like i know what ill be getting. now to get a front grill tho

 

[JDM_Pro5]

I need the DG grill, right now I have no grill, my stick one is sitting with all my other stock parts lol. Rico, you can get the DG grill and DG lip in carbon fiber if that's something you like

 

[RicoP5]

i do like cf. but i think i rather do everything red. maybe red and black instead. and keep rims the same color and the interior stock color so it matches. then do valve cover same color as rims with red letters or vice versa

Oh yeah. it'll be cheaper than CF too. I have red accents on my car. I painted the valve cover red and sanded the logos to silver. I painted the calipers red. My intake has red accents and I have red horns.
