the new kid has a question

[2muchbass]

hey whats up everyone, last year i became a proud owner of a 2000 protege es. ive been looking for a lip kit and ive had no such luck. it sux because everything i find is for an 01 or up. i know the bodystyle is almost if not exactly the same but im a little nervious about buying something that isnt for a 00. so anyway where can i find a lip kit, and will a kit for an 01 fit on my ride without any major adjustments? thanx

[ForceFed]

Good luck with the front but the OEM sideskirts and rear lips from the MP3 and MSP will fit your car.

[ImANerdyPunk]

Try www.andysautosport.com They have kits for just about everything.

[Witchdoktor]

like ForceFed said, you can get sides and rear but nothing for the 99-00 front :(

that isnt completely true. there are a few nice ones my favorite is the one NegatiZE has...

ya sorry i didnt read it quite right. i kinda skimmed through everything.

[Drackonn]

^^ hey thats my car lol ... yeah your gonna have to fit a lip from another car, they dont make a front lip for our cars ... the only ones i have seen done are a DGM lip for the P5 was fitted ... forgot his name, Tim did an R33 Skyline Front lip (I dont think he is here anymore) and I did the Honda Accord Type-R front lip :) good luck.

I am also going to try a 96-98 Civic front lip.

[Drackonn]

^^i wanna see what that looks like when your done

[99 Pro]

This is the lip that I plan on buying:

My buddy here has it in stock, so it is just a matter of me paying for it.

[99 Pro]

How close do you think that front lip will be to lining up to our front bumper Drackonn?

[Drackonn]

probably about the same as mine, they had to cut mine in 4 place ... but the integra and civic arent as wide as the accord so it might be easier ...

OK. IT LOOK NICE!!!!

[NegatiZE]

I think you can still buy the OEM 99/00 foglights from Mazdastuff.

[trublue]

does anybody know if a protege5 front bumper will fit onto a 99 protege with no major cutting?

[Drackonn]

it needs major cutting and fiberglassing, the fenders / headlights and grill are completely different.


^^also trublue i see you sent me a msg about my headlights, i didnt buy them, i took them apart and painted the insert with semi gloss black paint

there is a how-to written by ghost somewhere on this board ...

hey....well if u can recall how to get those headlights painted then can u note me about it...thanx.

[Drackonn]

look for the how-to by ghost, you basically bake them in the oven until the glue starts to melt, take them apart, take out the insert, paint it, put the headlight back together and bake it in the oven again to let the glue seal up ...

also note the corners (99-00 models) can not be done. those you have to buy.
ebay and procarparts.com carry blacked out corners for around $25

[trublue]

alright.. thanx for the info guys.

[ANTIXPRO]

My 99 with the DGM lip. Sup Drak!

[steve_protege]

I have an AutoExe front lip spoiler I purchased from a member on this board. I know Corksport sells it on their website, but not sure how much though. Also, Mazda sells an 00 lip spoiler. You can get it from www. mazdastuff.com or www.mazdaformance.com (http://www.mazdaformance.com) . One of the two websites. Can't remember????

For real?!! I could of swore that they had an OEM lip for the 00? Did they just recently change it or something?

there has NEVER been an OEM front lip for the USDM 99-00 bumper

Well, nevermind then. My fault people. The only one readily available is the AutoExe one then. But its kinda pricey though....

www.mazdaformance.com is a dead link....

[zerocover]

www.mazdastuff.com is the link.

IF I get the blacked clear corners will any black semi gloss paint work or do I need high temp stuff. Is it a perfect match with the pcp stuff.
