    if the hood doesnt match the car, id far and above rather it be black than any other color. nothing ricer about that.

      Passed what looked to be a legit Canadian Protege GT, in North Carolina with NC tags. Black, LX wheels, Red strip, spoiler, everything. Couldn't spot the interior.

      Dude that was driving didn't even double look my car, making me think that he is just driving the car like nothing is special about it.

      I wanted to touch the cars hiney. It was CLEAN too. Makes me think.
      My car is a Vazondissan. Part Nissan. Part Mazda. Part Ford. Part VW. Part Honda.

      1993 Protege - DX with LX upgrades. Still rockin' the SOHC. Custom HID headlight Retrofit.

      2009 Mazda 3 - Finacee Car. No power nothing. About to trade in for a 2014 Mazda 6 Sport.

          BG-related: drove to Boston to investigate my sister's CEL (98 Escort wagon), pulled a P0340. take the timing cover off, and not only has the belt jumped teeth, the tensioner failed so badly that I could slide the belt off without loosening it. so now it needs a new motor.

                Just curious, how comes it needs a new motor if it only jumped time?

                            Wow, I never knew it was. I just checked my timing belt book and the 1.9 and zetec are non-interference, but the SPI is. I guess I just assumed it was non-interference since the 1.9 is.

                            Time to drop a Zetec in it.

                              Maybe if it was my car, but another SPI will be sufficient for her.
