I used to always think your car was photoshopped. One because the picture quality was so terrible, and two, because I didn't believe that anybody would put a spoiler like that on their car. ;) (chair)

where is it

[steve_protege]

where is it

Mines in the body shop getting some improvements done to her!! Im supposed to get the car back sometime this week, but the rain is holding the shop up. They are done all the installs/shaving/molding etc.... but can't paint yet b/c of all the rain.

Once I get the car back, I'll have the cameras that have all of the pictures. So until then, Im stuck waiting for the phone call. Now I know how a girl feels when she's waiting for a phone call from a guy!! Geeeesh...

[MotegiMazdA]

Steve post pics as soon as you get it back!!!!!! I need to do something to mine :(

[steve_protege]

Steve post pics as soon as you get it back!!!!!! I need to do something to mine :(

I will be sure to. The car is in its final stages of getting done. The only thing left to get done is paint, but its been raining all week so the shop guy hasn't been able to do it yet. My car has been in the shop for almost 2 weeks now. Well actually 11 days, but its close enough. Feels longer than that to be honest!!

[redrims]

Woohoo I like this thread. Nice cars everyone!


Yeh. I'm loving this thread. Making me motivated to get my protege back in action....umm.

cheers

[Shane5425]

they were custom, ask drackoon , he is the one who got the guy to make them..

[hamidrizvi]

You guys with the fron Erebuni (sp?) bumpers. How much did you furhter drop your cars? How much clearance do you guys have.
Thinking of gettin gthat, but dont want to end up witha snow plow during the winter here in Toronto.

with stock suspesion, u got about a 1 to 2 inches lower becase the bumper drops lower on the erebuni front end, with a suspension drop of 2 inches, you will prolly be about 2 to 3 inches from the ground..

[Witchdoktor]

those proteges from the far east are sick!

[Shane5425]

some of those proteges u posted l8r, do they have the dual beam headlights ?

sport 20 headlights are dual beam on our style headlight, corksport has them, but u have to get fenders and bumper to go with them.. shaped a bit differant..

[HI-RES]

GTR badge??

[Brad]

sorry, idk if wagons count

wagons count if they are 99-00

[Shane5425]

http://www.corksport.com/store/image/ab04/99p-lights/J-SPEC_JDM_Sport_20_Headlight_Conversion_99_00.jpg

see, if i could find them cheaper i wwould do it, but 944 for 2 headlights, 2 corners and 2 fenders are a lil pricey...

[MIA protege]

i know bout those headlights shane . just didnt know so many people over there had them or if they came stock

[L8R]

GT-R badge, yes that confused me... he may have an RB under there though o.O

sorry, headlights, i have no idea. u guys would know best about this :)

i just posted pics i found on a japanese site and that taiwan site that was posted not too long ago. that hood pic is from japan... no idea what company or anything :)

peace

[MIA protege]

ahhh i nee to find that CF hood ... maybe its just layered in CF .. hmmmm

[P2K]

ahhh i nee to find that CF hood ... maybe its just layered in CF .. hmmmm
Talk to Protege2K, he had bought one when he had his 99 for around $600-$700. Not too sure on the price though. I'm getting one made that looks just like the EVO 8 hood(not the split design). I have to front the money first which I'm not ready to do yet, and I think I have to get more people in on it. Once I get more info, I'll post it.

BTW, only the Sport20 version came with the dual headlights stock. Some of those guys probably when to their local Mazda dealer and ordered them or stopped by a junkyard.

[P2K]

GORGEOUS!!! What a beast!!!

Thanks L8R

[MIA protege]

i know bout gregs hood ... his was the evo style. im interested in OEM cf

The more I see your car NegatiZE(which is a lighter version of mine), the more I consider trading in my wheels for something gunmetal. Looking good.

[NegatiZE]

I may be selling them soon, you want em?

[P2K]

$$$?

[99 Pro]

I may be selling them soon, you want em?

Man Negatize, everytime I see your car I like it more and more. I think I have a non-sexual crush on your car.

[jbiird317]

I may be selling them soon, you want em?


wow man, i must say those wheels look hot on ur car....looks like u may already have a buyer, but out of curiousity, what kind are they? ive never seen any like that before...

[MotegiMazdA]

haha nice... at least they were safe :)

Yeah but it was running. I'm going 2 for 2 here. I locked the keys in the Protege and now the Ford :( not bueno. lol.

[NegatiZE]

wow man, i must say those wheels look hot on ur car....looks like u may already have a buyer, but out of curiousity, what kind are they? ive never seen any like that before...

They are Motegi Trak Lite wheels. Only 15lbs each (w/o tire). They are pretty nice, but not what I'm wanting right now.

[jbiird317]

yeah i can understand that, they definately look nicethough...if youre selling for a reasonable price i'd def be interested

[Evil Taper]

So who makes that bodykit on the silver car with the dual eyelids? That's the ONLY body kit I've seen that looks tough on this car...possibly a JDM only product? I know Wings West sells a similiar wing to that guys for protege's but they don't have any body kit like that ... i don't think at least...any help?

Or even what magazine are those photos from...my rides gonna be the same as that one but black with black wheels

[Shane5425]

sport 20 jdm bumper with a lip on it, and has eyelids similar to mine, but has the bottom lip to go with it, also u knowtice his head lights are projectors..

[-zip-]

Any idea where you can get this lower lip and fogs?

[TampaSport20]

Lower lip appears to be customized from an Accord lip....The fogs appear to be the 99-00 ES Stockers

[mazpro]

I think it's custom or JDM because the stock fogs are smaller and the bumper is different.

*EDIT*

I found an old picture of my car, I am pretty sure it's JDM.

[-zip-]

Found the link to Accord Front lip, thanks all (hi)

[Drackonn]

i dont know if that red cars lip is from an accord ... thats the only picture anyone has of that car ... and no one i have talked to knows who owns it, i liked the way it looked and used an accord lip to get a style like it ... if anyone knows whos car that is i would like to talk to them, and to whoever liked the sport20 bumper with the lip, one thing to keep in mind is that that lip is like 450 alone ... thats what turned me away from it :(.

[Shane5425]

put 2 more neons under my car, they were just sitting in my trunk from my old audio setup, so i put them under my car, finished in about 30 min, and only costed me a few years of my life, and almost ended it there.. dont trust the stock jack they give you, they suck..

any ways, here are some pics of my adventure this weekend..

[Shane5425]

more

[MIA protege]

damn enough neons ? lol ... im liking those eyelids. now drop it like its hott

[mazpro]

looks good man. I always wanted to put neons behind my bumper to light the holes on the body kit.

[Shane5425]

yah, it looks cool, i have one onthe top grill, one on the lower part and a 48 inch above the lower one, thats why its so bright, the reason i have so many is it was cheaper to get a neo blue kit off ebay than to replace my 1 tube from optx.. so i had alot of extra tubes, finally got them all on the car..

[justjake71]

heres mine with a cool effect due to the stockness

[Shane5425]

heres mine with a cool effect due to the stockness

think ur cam is broken.. lol

[justjake71]

think ur cam is broken.. lol
why

[mazpro]

man, I can't believe my car used to look just like that......

[Shane5425]

why

just messin with ya cause of the effect u put on ur picture

[Shane5425]

man, I can't believe my car used to look just like that......

all ihave to do is look at gold pros car to see what mine used to look like..

[mazpro]

yeah man, memories.... now all we need is some money for the turbo.

[Shane5425]

i am workin on that now... i gettin a vortec fmu from witchdoktor, and prolly going with a hiboost manifold and downpipe

[mazpro]

manifold and downpipe for the 1.6?

[Shane5425]

yeah

[NegatiZE]

Any idea where you can get this lower lip and fogs?

It's a JDM bumper (the bumper is shorter due to less stringent bumper regs) with I THINK an OEM front lip made for that specific bumper.

[justjake71]

i would fix mine up but im thinking bout the gto

[mazpro]

i am workin on that now... i gettin a vortec fmu from witchdoktor, and prolly going with a hiboost manifold and downpipe


nice man, I didn't know that. it's good to know that the support is growing for our cars.

[NegatiZE]

i would fix mine up but im thinking bout the gto

If I had a chance to go for a GTO, I'd do the same thing.

[P2K]

Has anyone noticed the difference in lips on Jeremy's car and the dark silver Protege with the Sport20 bumper? Jeremy has a real AutoExe lip, but when I compared it to the one on this car, they didn't match up.



Look at how it bows outward while the other flows more with the design of the bumper. It's alot smaller with slightly smaller holes and it doesn't have that line that runs from one side to the other. Maybe it custom made to look like an AutoExe, or an aftermarket.

I'm still getting the AutoExe.

http://www.knology.net/~negatize/images/untitled6.JPG

[Shane5425]

yeah, not the same one, must be aftermarket over there...

[Shane5425]

http://www.knology.net/~negatize/images/untitled6.JPG


might just be me, but i just noticed this, look at the hood, it has a mustangish type hood(raised in middle) and i think it looks pretty good.. wonder how hard it was to do that...

[Drackonn]

They are being put onto a Picture CD and will be uploaded onto the computer as soon as I get back from picking them up. Then I will post before/during/after pictures. Im just building up the anticipation for display purposes. I want to make sure that everyone is adequetly prepped before the debut of my car. Hold tight all..... Update in a bit!!

Holy shit, you won't believe what I just found on Cardomain. Check out this guy's 99 Protege. It's a little much for my taste(graphics), but I still like it and have to give him props for all his hard work. One word, AMAZING!!!

Here's his page on Cardomain, http://www.cardomain.com/ride/817648

Anyone know if he's a member here?

[Protege2K]

That is absolutely horrible. But what makes me laugh the most is that he spent (wasted) all that money and didnt even touch the interior. That and it is an auto.

[P2K]

Yeah I kinda laughed at the interior too, but then thought that it might be an unfinished project as a whole. I guess we'll see.

Still a nice one though.

[Shane5425]

i seen that one before, its alright, dont see the point of all 4 lambo doors, but whatever floats his boat, i do like the hood , from what i can see of it..

[P2K]

It's the first time I've seen 4-door lambos and I think it's awesome. I don't think it's practical and should be for show use only. If I did 4-door lambos, I would have done the rears suicide lambo, but would have done it on a totally different car. Something high end maybe, something worth putting my money into. But I still think lambos are for coupes.

[steve_protege]

Hello hello all. I come bearing good news!! I have pictures. After a little mishap with the photo developing place (gave me photos when I wanted a Photo CD), I can now post away. I hope the anticipation has not driven you crazy too much. I sure hope I don't dissapoint. Enjoy all!!

[Shane5425]

man, i hate when that happens, out of 30, prolly 2 to 3 are blurry, so i cant complain to much, most of mine are crystal clear, i have a Sony Cyber-shot 4.1mp, i like the movie mode on it though, i can make a movie as big as my mem stick(256mb)

[mazpro]

yeah, sony's are good. I got an S90, I think it is, 4MP and takes good pics and vids.

Nice pics NegatiZE

[steve_protege]

Hey all! Sorry about the pics. This thread or forum doesn't seem to want them. Ive tried several times in the past couple days to post pics and it just doesn't happen. I have all of them on a Photo CD and tried to post em on the comp and in this thread. But for some reason, they don't work. If someone can figure out a different way to post them, I will. Its bugging the crap out of me not being able to post these for you, so I can't imagine how you all feel. Can someone offer any suggestions as to how to remedy the problem? Thanks.


Steve O

[steve_protege]

I just got one of the pictures loaded, maybe I can upload some more. Let me try.....

[steve_protege]

Seems to be working now, so I'll add what I can. If you all haven't noticed, these are all of my "Sweet Baby Jade" in the shop getting worked on. I have some after pics as well

[mazpro]

looks good man, can't wait to see the finished pics. looks like you did 2 colors.

BTW..I think it's time for a digital camera.

[Shane5425]

steve , i just pmed you
nice work btw..

[Witchdoktor]

I'm buying you clear corners, keep em' coming

[Shane5425]

haha, he is sending me all his pics, i am gonna shrink them down and post them, from what i can see of the pics he is sending me , damn, they look good, :P i see them first witch....

[NegatiZE]

Steve, that car looks great! Can't wait till its done.

[MIA protege]

hmmm i like it ... i got some extra clear corners if ud like ... the old model kind ... dont know if u wanna go with the blacked out headlight look since u did paint the hood black down the middle

[Witchdoktor]

then he'd need the headlights blacked out to match. is it finished or still at the shop?

[Shane5425]

i put them in a zip file, to many to post..

[mazpro]

Looks good, wide body huh? I like it.

No finished pics??

[Shane5425]

thats all he sent me, i think he has another set, but he had to go to work, took 1 hour to transfer those pics just to me..

[NegatiZE]

Mmmmm I want that AutoExe lip.

[justanotheradikt]

damn nice car...cant wait to see the finished product!!!!

[P2K]

Mmmmm I want that AutoExe lip.
Me too. Did you get it through Corksport?

Nice pics.

[99 Pro]

Nice work Steve-O!!! Looks great. Can't wait to see the final pics.

[steve_protege]

hmmm i like it ... i got some extra clear corners if ud like ... the old model kind ... dont know if u wanna go with the blacked out headlight look since u did paint the hood black down the middle


I may be interested in buying those corners from you. But I have to see how my smoked tailights turn out. If they look good when I get em back (from Rock Blocker) then Im going to smoke the corners and headlamps as well. Then I probably will probably need the clear corners. Now if I don't like the job when they get back, I'll probably buy the black painted headlamps and corner lamps (or do em myself) to go with my hood. Does that make any sense? (uhm)

[steve_protege]

I do have a second set of pictures. Those are my "after" pics. This is right after I got the car back and one morning when I went outside after it rained the previous night. I have go get my digi cam and take some GOOD pics this week. I plan on washing & waxing it sometime this week before it goes on the road to Daytona this weekend for the state meet. By that time, I should have my LED undercar kit on, GT Spec sway bars/tie bars and possibly have my smoked tailights back (maybe?). Im about to purchase the MSP sway bar kit and front strut bar from JONBOY(sp?) if he PMs me back. I'll post the "after" pics either tomorrow (before work) or Wednesday (off-day) for you all. Thanks for the compliments people!!


Steve O

[steve_protege]

then he'd need the headlights blacked out to match. is it finished or still at the shop?


The car is finished for right now. I think Im about done with all my exterior modifications. Im going to start working on the engine/performance aspect of the car next. Im waiting out the OBX header and cams for the 1.6. That will hold me over till I get my turbo kit in the far far future. So, she's not done done yet by no means.

[MIA protege]

definately waiting to see FINSIHED pics. wish i could make the state meet. damn car wont make it that far

[steve_protege]

Here are a couple pics of the finished car, for right now. If it appears the car looks dirty, its because it is. Its been due for a wash, but its rained everday I've thought about washing it. It'll be cleaned (for sure) before the meet on Saturday. Until then, here are some of the pics I have.

[Shane5425]

nice, break out that sony cybershot, it takes much better pics..

[P2K]

Looks good.

[jbiird317]

car looks good, not the biggest fan of the tails though, a blacked out version of those may not be too bad, but with the dark color and dark rims, the clear tails stand out and take away from all the awesome work u just did...

[Shane5425]

oo one more thing, GET CLEAR CORNERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[P2K]

oo one more thing, GET CLEAR CORNERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Definately a must.

[TampaSport20]

damn steve..that car looks familiar...I wonder why....

[Shane5425]

i am not knockin ya car steve, looks great, but u cant really see the curves as well as u would a light color, that dark green hides alot of it..
