    Hello 90 protege

    hey there everyone. I'll try to make this short and sweet. I bought myself a protege about a month ago (4th one ive owned). i got it in victoria Bc. when i got it it had ALOT of body damage. but engine and interior was clean so was a good buy for me. its the Gt version 1.8 dohc and the five speed. its a full load even with ice cold ac. the plans for it are simple as of now fix the body. so far ive done ALL the prep work on the rear sides, roof, trunk and hood. next step im going to do the passanger side fender and doors. this is a daily driver so i do one panel @ a time for prep until its ready to go for paint!! i have also done a glass conversion on the moonroof the metal panel just didnt look good to me. the colors i have picked are simple but well worth it. its gonna have the same white base w/ a blue candy pearl. after that is all done i will work on the interior (open to suggestions) i wont paint the dash or interior some wild colors just thinking about leather and clean classic look. I am looking for a white gauge kit all the ones i have found are in mph i need a canadian model set if anyone knows of any shoot me a link or email plz. i have a cardomain site set up showing off all the pics and work ive done take a look and tell me what you think.

          you can get primer in MANY different shades this just happens to be the best stuff for imperfect body's to find dings and dents.(what i was told) it is a polyester filler primer after the etching primer is layed down i went with 2 coats of this stuff. the body shop who is helping me do the prep work swears by this stuff and wont use any other color *shrugs* i was kinda skeptical at first myself but im not a painter im a mechanic. im doing most of the sanding and prep work myself to save money!!!! so far its turned out great and its working fine.
