    i want this for my car, but i dont know where to get it! HELP!!

    Hey everyone, this is my first post here

    Let me tell you guys a little story.
    One day, I was driving home in my nice 94 protege, and i was stopped in a left turn lane, turning left (duh!) and some jerk in a friggin venture slammed into my back end HARD. I was very surprised as to how well the back bumper took the impact. Anyway, everything was sorted out with insurance, mine didn't go up, and i had the car repaired. I go to pick my car up after like a month of being in the shop (thank god i had a rental!) and as soon as i step into my car, i notice that my stereo is gone! DAMN!. So i went in, and they said that there was nothing that they could do. So eventually I bitched enough, and I got a nice clarion MP3 player, and last weekend, I put in a 300W amp, and 2 10's with tweeters. Anyway, the car was parked just outside work for a few hours, and when I come out, i notice that my damn bumper is cracked! Well, needless to say, i don't want to make another insurance claim, so now im stuck with a cracked bumper. Well here's my solution:

    I've always hated how the lights on the back extend onto the trunk lid, and i've been looking for a way to get rid of them. And i saw this picture:

    So where might i be able to get that bumper, and that trunk lid?

    Also, does anyone know of other body kits that fit onto the protege? I've heard that the 90-94 civic ones fit, can anyone confirm this?

    Can anyone else come up with a solution to my current crisis?
    THANKS!

    thats j-spec and extremly rare, and ontop of that the bumper is probally 300-400 bux or more, dont know but i think that the trunk garnish is the trunk but not sure
    No more protege, Mx-3 now...Only known BP powered Mx-3 in Nova Scotia

      The trunk on that picture is a custom job. The bumper you'll have to get shipped form overseas as it's not available in the states. To answer your other question, civic bodykits don't fit, unless it's a custom job but that'll be costly. There are a few bodykits available for the 1st gen Proteges. Do a search as this has been discussed before and you'll find all the info needed.

      while you're out there, you might as well adjust your air/fuel ratio by smell... and your tire pressure by ride height

              pakfeifer has a distributor in canada, however doesn't do you any good if you have a 4-door bg.. only the front bumper would be useable

                www.corksport.com has some body kits for the pro. but they are extremely pricey and take a few months to get.

                    the light thing is simple the guy took a 323 garnish and replaced the stock one then he painted it black the spoiler is off another car and the bumper will be hard to find
                    i is dumb

                      the garnish has some alterations. It looks as if it was filled in to be smooth. cause usually there are grooves goin through it to match the tails. but the bumper is hard to come by ive heard. would be a bangin setup if you could get the 2. or just paint ur stock garnish and fill in the grooves so you can have it smooth then paint it body color... just a suggestion.

                          it is e-spec. they had a full flex pipe back system that made use of a lack of a Cat. they sell them on German e-bay.
                          When you turn your car on... does it return the favor?

                              hi guys,

                              that guy ripped off his garnish, then he covered up with a metal sheet, and finished up with fiberglass + cement, shaped exactly as the garnish. the spoiler came from a Daihatsu Applause spoiler.
