2000-2001 facelift
 
I've searched and searched with no avail.... I've looked at the to styles of fronts and was wondering if i can easily change the front of my 2000 ES to that of say the MP-3 or MS Protege front?


Is it just the fenders, front support, headlights and bumper?

Any help/info would be appreciated OR make it easy on me and lemme know if the 01+ lips for the Pro will fit my year? Thanks!

i think the lips will fit with little modification....

if you want to do a whole front end change

you will need:
front bumper
hood
fenders
headlights

and it wont be cheap, that is a lot of stuff to get, and very expensive parts....

Prokid888 August-24th-2004 12:25 PM

Yeah I just priced all that would be needed and it is pricey! So i think i'll just do the MP-3 skirts, rear lip and find a lip for the front. Thanks a lot bro

VagaBond-X August-24th-2004 05:54 PM

no problem man

ye for now, get the skirts and the rear lip....

maybe you can go for a different bumper later on, maybe even sport20, that should look really sick, considering u will already have the skirts and rear lip to compliment it...

aite bro goodluck

Yeah, i think next month I'm just going to bite the bullet and buy the Mazdaspeed front bumper from www.corksport.com. I like it and think it'll look sweet w/ the skirts and rear

Thanks again

yup i like that front bumper too

i was wondering.... any difference from the corksport 'ms style' one and the actual mazdaspeed one????

Drackonn August-25th-2004 12:16 PM

from what i understand there is a front lip made for the 99-00 front end in japan, but it is very hard to get. the ms style bumper from corksport is just a fiberglass stock bumper with the lip on it basically, but its all one piece and its a replica.\

btw if you want a front lip do what i did :) read my sig.

VagaBond-X August-25th-2004 08:36 PM

isn't it a replica of the mazdaspeed one, and not a stock bumper

the mazdaspeed bumper almost looks stock, but its different, the opening are bigger at front

Drackonn August-25th-2004 11:11 PM

it might be a mazdaspeed replica ... all i know is that it is supposed to be a lip that you can get from japan because thats the lip i originally wanted when i saw it on some black protege but it took me forever to find out i couldnt have it, i dont know what the 99-00 mazdaspeed bumper lloks like, so you very well could be right.

Drackonn August-26th-2004 01:17 PM

yes, why did you pick the crapy pic? :) the stock tails are going back on and the emblems are gunmetal now though.


what you need to know ?

amrit August-26th-2004 03:01 PM

Because I found it on some site and I was wonderin'.

I have those tails as well, why don't you like 'em?

Anyway, gunmetal emblems? How'd you do that?

Drackonn August-26th-2004 10:47 PM
