The eyebrows...are they fiberglass? Urethane? Do they come pre-painted or will I need to paint them myself? Does installation require drilling or anything with permanent effects?
Thanks.
Thanks.

some things are nice.... some things aren't.... but good work
theres too much lip on the front...
do u have a pic with just the splitter on a stock bumper?
the eyebrows are too thick.....
could you be more inventive about some of the parts? I mean like your first bumper that you guys did and posted on a black pro... that was pretty out there (i know many others here didn't like it).... I think somewhere mid way between that one and these ones are good.... these ones are a little too timid looking.... like same as what we can already get from autoexe....
your back bumper + grill needs remodelling.... it looks too much like a old steam engine bumper - u know, the thing that is just above the rail tracks and sticks out of the train and its used to removed stationery objects on the railroad.

Nice parts. Now just colormatch correctly and you'll be all set.

I don't like the lip...maybe without the second bottem piece...and the gap in between the grill and the hood really gets to me also

You guys have nice things, but the quality definately lacks, for example in fit and finish. Things just look that they are either to big to fit or have gaps. Nice ideas, though, just need to improve a little to be more successful.

the grill is kinda nice......but that rear bumper skirt is hideous. i almost tossed my cookies lookin at it. and i agree with the color matching.

Sales
Wanna know how to make lots of sales at this forum?? Build parts for 2nd Gen Protege's.. there are hundreds of 3rd gen/pro5 bodykits and conversions.. but only 1 real, unsafe, overpriced kit for a 2nd gen.. and by reading over the posts, and my own wishes.. there are lots of 2nd gen owners asking and wanting kits for their car..
I've seen your kit for the 99-01 protege.. its sweet.. something like that for a second gen, and for a good price, well, i would assume that you'd get lots of inquiries.. thats for sure..
just my thoughts.. i wish i had the skillz to do a kit.. i'd mass produce for sure..

I don't like it, it looks as if it belonged to a different car. I think the P5 looks awesome the way it is, that kit makes it look bad/cheap.
just my .02$

it just doesnt look finished or polished.... things dont line up right, such as the grill..... id say go back to the drawing board and make it fit.... and you might have more intrest!
nothing like a bodykit that screws up your lines, and doesnt match up right
but it does look pretty good to a certain extent, i like the white effect.

i really dont mean to be harsh, but i pretty much agree with everyone else, i was really lookin forward to some of your guys stuff with pics you posted earlier. But if your gonna make a replica, dont expect to have customer loyalty ESPECIALLY if you REPLICA lacks fitment and quality. Maybe you guys should try to mold the tlip, it may look better that way IMHO. but i dunno, just my .02.
