those hood vents are the most "unique" i've seen, lol

geez, if they have time to slice up a protege5 then they surely would have had time to make clear sidemarkers, autoexe style front grills, foglight covers, etc... the truck thing is unique but eh........
 
that's the grill and bumper from the concept car that turned into the MP3, which actualy had the older style 2pc headlights
 
Well, it's definatly different, i'll give them that much.
 
These are the before pics!

Where can you get the headlights? I asked at the LA auto show and they told me to look at mazdaspeed.com, but there was nothing about what I can get. they said that its just show to see about the accessories that you can get from mazda.

well they look like MP3 lights, so you already have them, just take out the orange reflector on the side.
 
It looks like a couple of Carve-boards in the back...
Those things are good fun!
 
Okay, call me crazy, but did they take the stock rear window, turn it inside out, and stick in on that thing?
