well, it has a FMIC, a huge one at that looks like, so I am guessing it is very boosted...yum. I am digging the fender flares too.

By the looks of the front headlights and grill it's got their full carbon fiber front end as well.

I dunno maybe its just me...but if the fender flares were painted to match the car, I think it would give it a cleaner look instead of the black & yellow bumblebee look

my opinion...

The paintwork is creative. However, I think its ugly... i would never ride on that kind of "car"? And I was thinking on paintint the rear bumper that way????... (even the side skirts)

...wheeewww

I was one step away to become rice.. (im not boosted)

It actually looks like the hood doesn't even open, and everything is one clean piece of CF..I agree about the painting, all one color would be cool (Silver!), but I won't begrudge it that, it is a hip car. I want to see numbers, though.

Yea, everything on that car is carbon fiber... and the fenders/hood/bumper/lights/grill are all 1 big piece... that is their whole front clip.

If those pics were a Jeopardy catagory I'd say the answer is....

What can you do to a Protege 5 to make it uglier than a Matrix/Vibe?

agreed, except i dont even like the fogs. And we dont hate you foxy for liking it, to each his(her) own.

But seriously though, it seems like a lot of those ideas may have looked good on paper, but it just didnt come out right IMO, the black fenders n stuff kinda kill it. The paint job on the hood is OK. thats just my opinion.
