A question for the Experts of MSP Conversions??

Ok guys here is the scoop. I'm doing a conversion for a customer here in Panama, and I want to make sure that I order the right parts from the dealer, I have spent a good time reading here all the treads about it, but to double check never hurts.

The deal is, this is a Protege LX 2003 and the customer wants to make it like the MPS 2003, but he doesn't want to use the Wings West Kit, therefore, since I have an account with the Mazda dealer in Miami, there with not be a problem in ordering the parts.

Please check the pic of the car and let me know exactly whick part # do I need to order from the dealer.

I already have the sides. that was an easy one but I dont know if the rear skirt is attached to the rear bumper of if is an add on.


I was going to order the accessory for the rear skirt but it is on a National back order status in the states. That 's why the customer told me that he will not mind if I order the rear bumper as long as it does come with the Skirt.


Thank you all for the help,

I assume you are trying to duplicatre the *look* of the MSP, not all the mechanical features. The MSP's turbo system is custom-fabricated by an aftermarket supplier and you cannot order replacement turbo parts without showing up at the dealer with a broken MSP.

If you just want the body parts, you can get accessory kit part numbers from http://dealers.mazdausa.com (go to "Accy Parts Lists") or buy parts out of the regular Mazda parts catalogs. Drop me an email at carguychris@hotmail.com and I can help you out with this.

Hey man, I'm from venezuela and my car's front end is identical to your customer's car, I want to do the coversion as well. You should try and find out if that car's front bumper bar is the same as the one in US proteges or if it is like the one found on the mp3/p5, you might be able to save some $ if you check that out.
