Evo 8 Conversions?

I was wondering how many Ralliart owners have gone the Evo 8 Conversion route, meaning installing the Accolade or other body kits. I have only seen maybe one or two of them now including myself will make three (no pics yet.....soon) if you have some of your car with an Evo 8 or 9 kit installed post up some pictures here.

Yeah i know, i have the same kit both my rebars are removed as well, but i will be modifing them to be re-installed, so far i have no cracks in the front bumper,just one in the rear around the tailpipe,but one thing about this kit is that there is a alot of stress on them after being installed, i had to make a steel brace on either sides of the rear bumper to pull in the lower portion so they don't bow out, but other than that overall the kit isn't that bad

cuz the Evo looks so much better than the stock Ralliart, and many company's have tried to copy the evo look, so why not have the look of the Evo.
