similar body style

im not to sure if i saw it here or on another forum, but it basicly said that the honda civic body parts are very simular to the protege's and font/rear can be switched with very minimal modifacation. if so, wouldn't the buddy club 2 kit fit with some modifacation to the protege? if not the civic anyone know with car it was?

Honestly, who cares if they fit; why would you want to make your Mazda look like a Honda. If you want a Honda, buy a Honda. We drive Mazdas because we like the way they look, handle and perform. They are the best balanced car in this class.

not saying i want it to look like a honda, yeah the oem body from mazda is nice but i wouldnt mind changeing it to a widebody like the bosel protege and i think the buddy club kit would actully suit the protege very well, but they currently dont make a kit for the protege. and just saying that you think that i want the buddy club kit so i can make it look like a honde, its like saying you want altneza like so you look like a toyota?. eveyone wants the best of each world that why people mod there car

Besides the obnoxious remarks. If some one is looking for something to do, what business it is of yours? Just let them do it.

Some guy did manage to fit a Civic bumper on his Protege, but it was not an easy task, nor was it cheap. Here is the pic of the car:

considering we have such a massive lack of possibilities for our generation of cars an ideas of how to mess with them is a good idea. And just cause you add a few honda parts doesn't make it look like a honda. That car looks pretty nice.
