Accolade front and rear bumpers
it should fit . . i had an original evo 8 bumper from a real evo and it almost bolted up perfect after the bar was gone. The headlights didnt match up along the sides so that was the main problem. Get them to paint it and then let me know. i dont work saturday so im going to do my headlight mod anyway. im blacking out the whole car lol. But yeah it should bolt right up after the bar is gone if they made a good product.
ok.Well as far as good product i would say (F*** them) but We'll see what happens.I need to take my turn signals out of my head lights aswell,so maby we could both work on that too..i gotta find out what time im workin..i have sunday off..do you know of a good place to buy some hood pins(not auto zone or pepboys) I wanna get some nicer ones..on ebay there about 20$ shipped for some apc,or sparco..i also need to install the heat reflection/insulation stuff..I was thinkin about makin a custum vent in there to prevent the water from getting in. Im pretty sure evos have a vent inside of that hole.
yeah they have a rain gaurd thing. i pmed you about saturday. i totally forgot about it. But its only till like 12. . . . NOt too sure about the hood pins. are you going to put them in your accolade hood?

that have project cars, that how they make "OEM" like parts.
the evolution 8 has no crash bar from what i hear, in order to replicate the evo8 body kit they had to have the crash bar removed. so, u must remove the bar for correct fitment...

I was gonna see if accolade would put my car on their site,and all that Crap but Im so mad with them right now,and I jsut saw the thread for the new Carbon Fiber hood.That really pissed me off..cause I would have just bought that instead..Does Accolade want ppl to die when they get in an accident?

FAQ ?
1 ) Why Does customer wants to buy a Evo 8 Kit for His Lancer ( Non Evolution Model )
Because he or she wants to make it look like the Evo 8
2 ) If the Evo 8 kit cannot be designed to look like the actual Evo 8 keeping the RE- BARS ( Designing a Evo 8 kit to have the rebar is like a total waste of time because the end product will not look like the evo 8. I mean then why sell a kit if it does not look like a Evo 8 ) best for us to design is without rebar because it it will very close to evo 8.
3) Customer buys a kit because he wants to make his lancer look like Evo 8 But cannot fix it with out removing the re-bar ( Grave Problem )
This mean we need to design kit which does not look like the Evo 8 ( REBAR STAYS) , but should be named as a Evo 8 kit and then sell it.
What are your guys opinion. Just let us know so we can go to the drawing board again
Do you guys prefer a kit which does not look like a Evo 8 or do you guys want a kit which looks almost similar.

So not true!!! I want to buy it because it's the only good looking kit for our lancer but no one gives me a quote; so, it doesn't matter.
WOW this is BS!!!
1. its the only kit for the car.
2. i didnt order the kit my shop did.
3. the hood was made poorly the vent sucks.
4. how many japs buy your kits,and how many have you sold to people here in the us?
5.i recomend you redesign the kits cause when another company does you wont sell anymore..
