Body kit

I'm looking to purchase a body kit for my 2002 Protege 5, colour red. Where can I look around and what places should I stay away from ... (I don't know much about cars ..hence I'm a girl) so your advice is greatly appreciated!

probably the best body kits for the protege are:

wings west
mint blue
postert (very difficult to get $$)

as far as which sites to buy from that's hard. I don't know of any quality vendrs that sell body kits. Maybe "Andy's AutoSport"?? I guess?

okay... I feel a bit uneasy about ordering stuff online... would there be any good places you know that sell them in Toronto area?
Thanx

I like you canadians...you're like americans on prozac.

What is your goal for your car? It's best to have a plan in place BEFORE you start modding so you dont waste any time or money....unless you just have both to waste.

happy boxing day.

sweetie I live in Canada but I'm not canadian... I was born & raised in Romania
My goal for the car is to look a little girly, cute, fun.
What do you suggest?

Mint Blue is a really nice kit, I've heard there are fitment issues, maybe this can be blamed on it being designed for the JDM Familia.

This is the Auto EXE Sport-01 kit

These guys will probably kill us Cdns on shipping and also I know you don't wanna order online (I'm still skeptical as well) but at least you can see these pictures to see what's available and what interests you.

Haha, I could probably crawl through that Accolade bumper - I wonder what they were thinking.

Yeah, i think the Auto EXE kit would look good on a red pro...do you?
