Figured I'd post here to add some protege content, not that anyone really cares about the protege anymore. So I've had this car for what seams like forever. @Raider can confirm. I think I purchased this car on 7/11/2008 with about 36k miles on it and now has over 150k road hard and put up wet miles on it
I can't really provide much of the build progress over the years but I can state what I have so far in no real order. I'll have to upload pictures later when I get time.
