Carbon Fiber Hoods

[agtj]

Ok, I searched through the forum and couldn't find any answers to my questions.

My first question is can the APC CF Hood Fit onto a 2000 3rd Gen Protege Sedan ? Says 2001+( And Please no response as far as how good/bad it is)


Second question is almost the same, but can the VIS Hood Fit onto a 2000 3rd Gen Protege Sedan ?


I have been looking at a 2001 vs 2000 and really don't see any change to the hood design. The major change was just the headlights. I just want some help before I make a purchase like a hood.

Thanks

contact proto2k or 2kprotege (i think thats it). they both have 2000 models and may be able to help u

same hood, 99+

Hmm. I don't think that the 2001+ will fit the 2000. The only real difference is the headlights, but that is enought to mess it all up.

If I am wrong I would love to know because as of now I know of only one site that sells a hood that will fit my car. And it is $725 shipped.

I just put in an order for a VIS hood from a local shop of mine. Based on what they told me, 2001 and onward is the same hood. Everything prior is different.

[Protege2K]

That is what I thought too. Pretty sure that is correct.

hmm, thanks for the responses so far. I will have to measure my friends hood on his MP3, and look at how the headlights sit with the bumper/fender. And report back findings.
