ROFLMAO @ "The LIP LIP" and without further adieu I present to the crowd the infamous LIP LIP!!! Not the worse thing I've ever seen by far but its still a spoiler/lip on a spoiler/lip!
Wide body kits?

as to what over lip lip? I'm not aware of the another lip lip for the protege unless you want to count those little wing things.
i thought there were a few bumper extensions, splitters, and lips... MSPSILVER24 or whatever is making some, people have used garage door weather stripping, the replica lip, i dont even like all the splitters the protege race teams have. this one, and there was one splitter on one of the race cars... those are the only ones i like.

It will take a beating. Inclines, declines, potholes, tire carcasses, small mountains... I've pounded them all, at speed, and have a few scrapes on the bottom side and small chip (with the JDM band-aid decal mod) to show for it.
To the OP, DG Motorsports "widebody" kit is by far the most tasteful, and I honestly wouldn't recommend it over the car's stock stance. BUT, if you had to widen the car's stance, that's the one I'd go with.

Why would you need beefier wheels on a FWD car with under 500 horses? We already are capable of an 8.5" wheel width which is still overkill IMO. Don't waste your money on a widebody. Just get some good coilovers, and with the money you would spend on a widebody + the repaint required afterwards, Forge your block or something lol.

wheel width isnt the issue, you still cant run huge tires, track cars dont stretch tires.

Can't you just roll your fenders or put on some coilovers and not worry about it?

No becase u do want to go aslow as you can for track racing, the wider TIRE/wheel combo you can fit the more actuall rubber will be able to be on the ground, you can only go towards the center of the car till you hit the strut, but you can go farther out much easier with wider fenders

I've got 245 tires on the front of my car, 225 rear, no fender rolling, 8" wheels all around. Its all about offset.
if you need more rubber than that, you better be building a full race car.

That's exactly what I was thinkin Wagon. You really don't need much more rubber than that on the ground.

Track racing you want more. Lol. More sticky on the groud the better. And the race cars I know are much lower then wagons car.
