I have spoke to a couple of people who have installed the older accolaide kits and according to them it was a huge headache. How about the newest front kit they are offering for $495, bumper and hood. Anybody know yet??

 

They have gotten alot better in recent years. The people that bought the old kits HATE accolade. Then people like me that bought the new kits love em. Next time do a search because this will turn into a Accolade sucks thread vs Accolade is the greatest thread in no time. We probably get on of these threads weekly.

 

mines was easy, good fitment, no problems,

 

^^^^thanks, anybody else??

 

my experience was ok at first and then it got super bad.

 

accolade screwed my friend but this was like 2 years ago.. i owuld go with rrm.

 

My front and sides fit good, the back that's another story.

 

i went through 2 accolade hoods, first one cost me a new windsheild, second one almost cost me my life, but i kept quiet hoping for my new body kit that they promised me

 

explain...

 

another day, i am tired of them, i wish i still had the old hoods, you guys would have definatly seen the potential in danger, i am just giving my honest input about this

 

The old accolade hoods had a flimsy latch which caused the hood to fly open and shatter a few windshields. But then they started implementing a stock hood latch and havent had a hood flying open since. But they highly recommend hood pins to keep further incidences from occuring.

 

ya, the newer Accolade is a lot better

 

wow neither negative, or positive, but more helpful, good job kremey

 

I put my hood on for a night and drove around. no problems. i got the up to 70 and then i was at the road i live off. But i kept an eye on the hood, didn't move once. It takes a pretty good drop to shut the hood tho... so i doubt it will come up.

 

honestly doode, there was this one guy who came to road race... all i have to say is, you should have seen his hood.. the latch was bolted on, and it looked ready to break
