      the last picture is of the parts cut off. on top is the side pieces, middle is top piece, bottom is bottom. One mistake i made is that i cut about 4 inches off of the top of the bumper, i think i went alittle overboard so whoever tries next; try to cut about 3 or 2.5inches off first ...However the bottom and sides were spot on...on the bottom i cut 2 inches off and the sides were cut along the already present groove thats about 2.5 inches in.

          I bought both spoilers for $150 off a friend who was parting out his 323.

          Those spoilers are hard to find I think D323 had the top one forsale.

              I have a feeling this is going to go down in Protege history in the same way the clear corner "mod" did. GHETTO.

                no... the main difference being that clear corners are ghetto no matter if they are home made or not.

                    True, but they aren't really clear...

                    /and they are nice.

                      I dont know where i disagree with this. If by ghetto you mean cheap and inexpensive, then maybe so....If by ghetto you mean ugly and stupid, well then youre just wrong!

                        Not really that ghetto if done right. It's really a money saver and less weight. I got tired of people sitting on my back bumper and now I can park in smaller places. The clear corners never looked right because of the black part.

                          It's all good...to each his own. You'll probably laugh at me when I get Interplay bumpers moulded onto my USDM bumper.

                              wow, that looks super nice. The only thing I don't like about 323's is that the bumper sticks out so far. I want to try this on the front of the protege, I bet that would look nice.
