              I think it will be great if it will work . Have some doubts about how it will fit , but good luck anyway .

                why dont ujust go buy another protege hood and do some fiberglass work to it so it looks like a civic hood but not actually one.... would prolly be cheaper and might even look better since you wouldnt have to cut or anyhting like that

                  Some people obviously don't appreciate a sense of humor...

                  Have you even seen a civic hood? Both my civics hoods are wider and shorter than my Protege's hood. Sure you can trim the sides but what are you going to do about length? Extend it? With what reinforcement? Unless you're an experienced metal/body fabricator(and you wouldn't be asking if you were) I'll bet the final product is less than worth it.

                  You want to a cool hood? Take a protege hood, find one of the aforementioned fabricators and have them graft in some subtle, tasteful scoops, vents, creases, bulges etc etc.

                        Attitude adjustment dude...if your first reaction to something lighthearted is to get pissy...well, I'm glad you're not my next door neighbor.

                        I went a step further and even told you why it was bad idea.

                        If you still want the ghetto'd fiberglass bondo job that fits poorly, looks like ass, and actually decreases your cars value, then you're a determined SOB, I'll give you that.

                        I did have "shyt" to say, you just didn't like it.
