You've got to be kidding me!
 
After all the complaining about VIS not making the hood, look what I found...

http://www.ngkits.com/home.php?cat=3777

Apparetnly these are VIS hoods. I tried emailing Next Gen kits, but their is a problem with their email form, perhaps someone else wants to try or try calling them. See if this is legit.

Intresting. The info I had gotten from VIS was they were working on a Evo8 style hood. That is a Evo5 hood (I think).

bruce988jl Dec 6, 2004 02:07 PM

Any word on these things actually working with the Strut bar? i mean personally i heard VIS had problems with their CF hoods not working with the strut bar, that's why i didn't bother waiting on one when i had my car accident... But if these things work with the strut bar, i wouldn't mind purchasing one...

Good prices... I wish they had a better pic with the hood on!!! It says it only weighs 15lbs. Anyone know how much OEM hood weighs?

ohcanada_00 Dec 6, 2004 04:01 PM

just got off the phone with the girl who works the counter down at that shop and its a mis-print. The hood is for a 2002-2003 lancer. It will NOT fit the Ralliart. sorry guys, my hopes were up too.

yeah i saw that a while ago, if you go to the other section for the 02-03 lancers. it has the exact same pics in it. dumbasses at that site don't know what they're doing apparently....

Rydog Dec 7, 2004 02:24 PM

yeah i was gonna say it didn't look like it had the proper lines for the headlights, but now it's confirmed.

why is it so hard for them to make a cf hood for us RA owners? don't get it.

Nice hood!!

If Lancers sold as well as civics, we would have a MUCH larger selection to choose from other than having to resort to accolade for an aftermarket hood.

bruce988jl Dec 7, 2004 07:40 PM

There goes my hopes... lol

otter Dec 7, 2004 08:16 PM

If Lancers sold as well as Civics, we could buy Kwality Krap from APC. :D

CF hood or not, I'm damn glad Lancers don't sell as well as civics

Damn it we should take over a carbon fab shop and mass produce the damn hoods ourselves, (only in a perfect world). I'm going to go for the accolade evo style hood.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOO!

just be paitent, something will come along. Our car is relatively new. Honeslty, I complain probably more than anybody about not having a good selection of aftermarket stuff, but really compared to cars as new as ours (mazda3) we definetly have a bigger selection of stuff. Just be paitent, something will come.
