looks good, did you notice the car accelerating faster with the smaller wheels? What size tires are you running.

 

[sickspeed94]

haven't even gotten to take it out yet, but they're only 16 lbs so they'll definately help.

205/50/16, i used a tire plus sizing calculator i found on google to get the closest possible same sizing tire. these are about 3. inches smaller altogether than the stockers.

besides that it looks sweet.

yea, I mean no offense but i gotta ask, does anybody think that lip looks better than an autoexe replica or mintblue, or 03.5 stock, or mp3/p5 stock? IMO it is the absolute worst modification I have seen for the front of a protege. I like the ES front end with fog lights better, or even that wierd "evo" front end that looked outrageous. This piece seriously looks homemade to me

I think it helps the sleeper look though since it looks awful and thus makes your car less assuming.

i mean, its okay, i guess...its not horrid, but it just doesnt look like it fits right...it doesnt really flow into the bumper, i dunno, looks weird to me.

car shmar... who's the chick in the background with the pony tails!!!!!!!!!!!!

what lip is that?

 

[sickspeed94]

the ckick is my girlfriend. back off! hehe b00sted and JCell got my back on that! (werd)

the lip is carbon creations (used to be CF but i cracked it... see pic.) and used to fit very well but it is definately at an awkward slant, and i'm taking it off soon. i wanna do the mod that i saw on this guy;s cardomain page (it was chopstickhero i believe) but i can't find out how or what to buy.

*EDIT*
found the page
http://www.cardomain.com/member_pages/view_page.pl?page_id=226465

any ideas on how to take the lip off without damaging anything (it's body kit taped. no bolts or anything)

 

[wickedjra]

i thought it was supposed to fit over the stock lip, not fastened underneath it. maybe????

 

[sickspeed94]

lol no it's not

in other news, i9 FOUDN THAT LIP, it's from a dodge SPIRIT, not shadow like it says on the page... WOOT! i think this entails a trip to the junkyard.

edit: actually just found it online for 10 clams!

 

[ChiMSP]

You should take the lip off imo.

no the lip on there isn't from the spirit, that lip is carbon creations, i bought it and it used to look real good, then i cracked it and they painted it and reinstalled it bad. however i found a col DIY mod of an old dodge spirit lip that looks very good, THAT'S what i was talking about.

i'm not going to take it off until i find someone to buy it.

please read the whole thread and THEN chime in.

thanks a lot brudda. yeah it feels a little "lighter on it's toes" now with the ligher wheels. they were cheap you should check ebay for them (motegi RT-5) and they DON'T RUB

 

[sickspeed94]

sorry fot the double post but THIS is what i was talking about

 

[slug420]

i like the 03.5 front end a lot better than that or your current setup. but thats just me

 

[mazpro]

the rims look good man! (first) great choice.
