Yup. Lots of those badges made their way around. They are a replica of the MP3 badges that did come from the factory. The MP3 in case you didn't know was a special edition 2001 Mazda Protege Sedan, the first production car to come with an MP3 player. It also came with a sport tuned suspension, 17" wheels, a better exhaust system, and a few more ponies under the hood. The MP3 was also the first car in Mazda's North American lineup to have the body kit that would later come on all 2002-2003 Protege5s and 2003 MazdaSpeed Proteges.
