I have a lot of picture... The only things is uploading then :p It takes time.

And the interior job for me was nothing compare to turbo charging a 1.6l. :p But still it's a lot a job since you took the way of painting it. Does the paint holds up good?
 
BOI GOT THAT QUAIFE!

Great list of mods and loving the car man. Change that exhaust system and put something more aggresive! That will top it off..
 
I'll keep the MSP exhasut because over here you can't modified a stock exhaust system... It's an OEM exhaust so officer can't give me a ticket... well not for that lol But trust me with the 2,5in dowmpipe it sounds really good ;)
 
I gotcha..

yeah, I'm a little worried about piecing my 3" exhaust system together soon because I can just imagine how LOUD it's going to be. (five-0)
 
looking good bud, the back of your Protege looks STUNNING !

Thk's! allway nice to have feedback eather good or bad. I'm not so sure to keep my 2003.5 wing... Might go wingless

I'm having lots of problems with my computer so I'll have to wait before putting photos of my engine bay... :S I'll try to get some nice interior shot to while I'm there :p
 
I think it looks great with the 03.5 wing and should keep it ! but if you decide to sell it ill buy it asap haha
 
if you don't mind can you show me what plug are in the back of your speedometer? pic will be nice!

What plug is in the back of my speedo??? They are all the same from 1999-2003.5, P5 included so you can swap a manual speedo of any year on yours.
 
Here's an up date guys! As promise I'll post some engine bay pictures here's one. The pipping of my BOV and ITS are now painted and the valve cover is an other color lol this picture is from this summer.
