You're car is so nice! It's a lot different than most of the stuff we see here. I like the body style that they have in the UK it looks a lot sportier than what we have here, and the color looks so good
 
Yeah its Titanium gray, a factory colour. We didnt get the orange and yellow like you got for the pro
 
Titanium p5 with euro rear bumper and lip. I think I just fell in love.. Summer wheels look nice too
 
Welcome aboard! Very clean car! I love that color. If only the US P5 came in that color....

Right!?! I'm not a big fan of it on the sedan, but on the p5 looks great in that color plus the EDM tail lights and the euro rear make it look really good too
 
Thanks for the comments. Ive owned it for a good few years now and still love it... apart from the rust (moon) I only drive it once-twice a week as I have a day a little peugeot 106 diesel (2thumbs)
 
I like that other places use USDM parts on their car like we use EDM and JDM parts. I really love the color, EDM bumper and the grille. I think the US tails and Pro5 emblem are a cool touch, does anyone over there know what a Protege is? I also love the RX8 rims.
 
I'll be needing your help in the near future cause my USDM P5 will soon be in route for the UK and i need to get it road legal...
 
LOL no nobody knows what a protege5 is.. or a 323f as its called over here from the factory. The bodywork is mostly factory standard with the edition of the fog deletes , grill, Wheels ( which are Mx-5 17's ;) ) and badges of course. Theres a few of us club323f.com members who run Performance parts from the U.s nowadays . the injen is the most popular and the headers too. Have a click of the cardomain link in my sig to see more pictures and a write up of whats been done.

If anyone wants to swap there pro badges for the U.k 323f ones then pop over to club323f and make a wanted post.
