no the evo hood overhangs the front of the lancer headlights by 4-5 inches.

You can probably have a shop cut it up and make it fit.

lol course i can for big $ haha but i like some diy. I just want to know if the hood fits (except the lights), like round the fenders and general size. Im really suprised it isnt more popular for kit makers to make an evo hood for a lancer, im sure it would be bought.

completely didnt see this at all lol

well i knew it wasnt going to fit but its worse than i thought. About 4-5 inches over the front ^^^^^ and sadly about a half inch on the sides only towards the bottom tho.

Im posting this picture partly to show others, because i could not find not single lancer even attempt it before, but also to show my plan



Im thinking about removing around the edges to make it fit. This pic should say enough. The circles just show ill be fixing that area to fit the lights and the arrows just show that the vent will move back with the removing of that top strip. Any thoughts?
