I think you're on the total right path. You're making it what YOU want to be. That's what reall counts. Its a little to over-the-top for me, I like a more subtle look, but that's just me (see my car). And I'm sure JDM will agree, but I think you should paint the car white.. hehe. As for a muffler, I love the way mine sounds and all.. nice DEEP sound, but that could also be that I have a 2.5inch cat-back and took out the resonator. If you were curious, it's the Dynomax SuperTurbo muffler. I'll post how it sounds if I can find a place to host it... Good luck and I, as well as everyone here will be happy to help you in your endevour towards a better Protege.

arabamer, it's not my taste man but dont let people **** on you for liking it. If you're going to be over-the-top and extreme do it and do it proudly. Someone on here said it best "When walking through a minefield it's best to stomp your feet".
p.s. If you ever want any help under the hood let me know and I'll help you out. Thats more my area.

i'm not set up to "Build" engines right now. I don't work as a mechanic at a shop anymore. I just built a small workshop next to my house that I work out of. If you need an engine built I suggest taking it to a machine shop to make sure that those critical tolerances are spot-on. If you wanna do everythign short of machine work let me know!
