tisk tisk, now that you stated that you haven't gotten a ticket for your tint, karma will bite you back. I'll cross my fingers for ya man.

 

i got stuff and other stuff installed. look to the right.

 

He thinks it handles great and rides hard enough as it is now and he thinks i'll have problems with clearance over speedbumps and other crap like that if i lower it any more than it is stock.

 

It does handle great in the stock form. However, it will handle superbly with a few suspension tweaks.

Not that I would know, since I'm just a ricer!

 

I gotta AEM SRI and a custom 2.5 inch cat-back with an OBX muffler. Wow, I need more stuff =o

 

I've got the '03 Protege DX ('cause those electric window motors are dead weight). Its got the 2.0L w/ 5speed. It's sittin on 15s with bridgestones up front and dunlops in back. Those are set off by a set of 15in CAR&DRIVER hubcaps from Target(ABS Plactic baby.. they may fall off under heavy braking, but they won't shatter as they roll by). Up top I've got a state-of-the-art Yakima bike rack rated for 165lbs carrying a 20lb Brisa B26 expert. For custom paint I have fine northern Virginia clay kicked up around thanksgiving. Now for the piece de resistance.. The interior. I've got some Trojans in the glove box next to the unpaid parking ticket. To block sun between the visors I have my Smart-Tag transmitter. The Floor is lined with broken CDs. Well that's the good stuff. Top that Fellas!
