Welcome. Glad to see you made it. I was the one that referred you over here.

There are a couple Ohio people on the forum- not sure where in Ohio though. There is some kind of Midwest Mazdafest coming up this summer.

There are a bunch of good how-to's on the site and just a pretty good community for shooting the shit back and forth.

Welcome to TMF.

To finish out your dark theme, you could black out your head lights and get fog overlays, would really complete the look.

I can never get myself to tint headlights. I always like headlighst to stay nice and clean and bright. but I do want to get some yellow fogs instead of factory ones. and probably 8k or 10k headlights.

"Blacking out headlights" in this context refers to taking the headlights apart and painting the housings black; the lenses and reflectors are unchanged so lighting performance is similarly unchanged. There's probably a how-to around somewhere to walk you through it if you're interested.

8-10k is pretty far from clean and bright. Closer to blue and rice. =P

Welcome aboard.

yeah 8 and 10 are closer to blue. but rice is in each own opinion. I've always had 8 or 10 on my cars.. forenza i did 8, the vue I did 10 and it looked good .

Hmm.. or I coudl just get a set of mazdaspeed headlights.. I've noticed those have the black housings or atleast the guy with th 03.5 ms near me had black housings.

Thanks lol, no no more drop! lol, here in ohio we have a lot of incline entries and other items the destroy lowered cars. My wife drives this daily and I drive it on the weekends to keep it nice and clean (I do more driving for work). I have a set of ebaich pro kits for sale that I just can't see myself putting on the protege.

The sedan headlights do have a black tone to them. If you wanna trade, let me know.. I'm wanting to put P5 headlights on my MP3

Welcome to the forum by the way, enjoy your stay.
