What style Evo kit were you looking for? We carry an Evo 7 style kit for the 02-03 Lancer.

okay so evo parts don't fit directly on the oz right? you have to have a lancer kit that looks like an evo?
and i'm not so much worried about it looking EXACTLY like the 8. i just basically want the grill not attached to the hood you know?

well actually evo parts do just bolt right up the the base lancer... with the exception of the front bumper. ive always kinda wanted to be the guinea pig and do it myself just to shut a few people up.. you know who you are..(cough cough amby cough).
the only real fab work that would need to be done is the front bumper support that runs in front of the core support would need to have a bar welded onto it to support the evo bumper that sticks a little farther out. actually now that i think about it one other person on here has done that evo front end conversion. search around and you should see exactly what im talking about with that bumper support.
