yes. The mp3/msp are basically ES proteges with upgrades. Any of the sedan upgrades will work for you. Just know that the P5 rear bumper and exhausts are slightly shorter...so they wont work.

glad you're happy and welcome aboard!!

Best advantage of Protege versus Civic: You won't see yourself on every street corner.

My Pro is fun to drive for sure- but watch the Honda Bashing. My LS Integra N/A is faster than My Fiances Pro, and handles better. And the Pro is Turbo'd. sorry I also love My Protege but My Teg is better.

if a turbo pro isn't faster than an LS teg then I'd be looking into whats wrong on that turbo.

my NA pro5 is faster than LS's. (stock for stock)

Not Stock LS- Try LS/Vtec putting 240 to wheels with all internals and Protege's aren't as fast as you think they are.

Speed isn't everything that makes a car THE "car".... I mean, how come nobody has mentioned the supurb handling of the protege line yet.... I mean I love mine so much I have to go get an alignment done next week; becuase I have pushed my to the limits and back, and then I am sure back again...
