a new face for my Evo... countdown begins

Hey all, just a quick update.

Just got word my new front bumper made by the great guys at Accolade in Sri Lanka was sent. I will have it in my hands on Wednesday this week.

From my knowledge I will be the very first in the US to rock it.

Here is a quick pic of it going in the box...

I should be able to give a full report on Thursday morning since I will be installing it asap.

diesel - It comes with mesh, but I think i may swap since the holes are a little larger than the stock mesh.
also, with the larger openings beside the intercooler opening I plan on upgrading my oil cooler system to get more air !
and running some piping from the other side to the air intake. if there is a groundhog hiding in there...he going to get sucked up

Wow, Accolade is out of Sri Lanka... Not a very promising place to live or start a business. More suicide bombings there than any other place...
