I need help with lots! PLEASE HELP ME
Hey men.. I have a 2002 protege ES!
I was wondering about re-painting the whole thing, have you seen the 2003 eclipse, the charcoal grey, i would love to paint the protege that color, how much do you all think that will be?
Also, Body Kit!
I WANT THE MP3 BODY KIT! Mazda told me that the Front Bumper Doesnt fit the 2002 Protege? Is this true? I have seen them all over! HOW DO I MAKE IT FIT????
Are there any Body kits out there WITH OUT A FACTORY FRONT SKIRT? That will fit perfectly??
WHAT ARE YOU ALLS RECOMMENDATION??
PLEASE HELP ME OUT AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE!!!

The MP3 kit does work except you have to change the grill. Not sure about the headlights, but a BUNCH of ppl have done it up here.
To repaint your car, it will be approx. a couple thousand for a GOOD job. (between $2k-$3K) Also, it will be cheaper to paint the entire car when you get the body kit. That way it can be done at once.
Cork Sport has a kit for the regular proteges without making any changes.
Wing West is suppose to come out with a second kit to fit the regular protege also. (Not the MP3 one)
BTW, welcome to the club and I hope to see you at MAPP.
You better be there, cause its at VA beach.
Peace.

Body Kit
If I purchases the Body kit peices from cork screw, could I install them my self and add the forlights my self?? Or does it take some sort of gui ess?? I was looking at how the factory bumper and stuff is installed and it is just clamped on?!? Can I do it my self? DO the sideskirts install easy?? ALSO! HAVE YOU SEEN A GREEN MICA PROTEGE WITH THE KIT AND DOES IT LOOK GOOD?? I HAVE THE GREEN MICA PROTEGE???? I WAS THINKING ABOUT GETTING A WHITE BODY KIT?? WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THAT??

I have a few pics of a '99 green mica pro with the CS/MazdaSpeed kit and it looks sweet.
>>>>More pics<<<<
Not being rude at all, but if a I saw a green pro with a white body kit *** a FINISH, I'll puke
It will always look unfinished like that. You should just keep it the color of you car.
