Accolade IX Bodykit.

Okay boys it's summer, and we all have a little spare cash for the drugs, sex, and alcohol.... But before we blow it on things that we will regret... How about us 02-03 lancer guys get together and buy this kit from Accolade.

I'm no affliated with them in anyway, but I never really liked any other bodykit for the lancer other than the IX one. I think it's really pimp, and it's our only chance to get some looks away from the new 08 lancers.

They closed the thread when there was 6 buyers and I will gladly be the 7th buyer.

1. Zippo41189
2. sXericerider
3. SnapDragun
4. Wallesasuaz
5. Newfoundlancer
6. Jehuty
7. dem_z (Me)
8.
9.
10.

I emailed accolade about the kit recently, and they obviously want serious buyers. I know you don't get to see the kit before hand, but that goes with everything you buy on the internet.

We could also set some ground rules by having OEM fit, quality plastics, and a picture perfect replica. Accolade is not exactly an unknown company, so messing this up would destroy their reputation from the evom community.

Our lancers aren't worth anything, so we're most likely going to keep them. Kits won't longer be made for us. This is a limited edition kit, and they're only going to make 10.

You just have to buy the front bumper and hood to be considered a "buyer":
These are here:




Back bumper (and I guess these are the skirts as well)


I'm not a salesman, I'm a driver... But hopefully we get some guys to give this kit a look.

In terms of prices (I'm quoting the dead thread on this from winter):
EVO IX Front Bumper + Complete HOOD with OEM Latch is 795 USD Shipped
EVO IX Rear Diffuser Bumper TFF 275 USD Shipped
EVO IX Sides Skirts TFF USD 195 Shipped
Complete Kit = 1265 USD Shipped.

EvoM, all I want for my birthday is an IX bodykit.

that is wicked awesome for a 02-03... i'd be in on it if i could afford it. i am surprised at how well it mimics the shape of a newer lancer/evo.

If it is 100% polyurethane, I will jump in. If its anything else, I will go kaminari since its cheaper anyways.

It looks REALLY nice. I'd buy it. But, yea it's fiberglass... I know a lotta people with fiberglass kits, they take care of their car... they make sure they dont go off/on curbs... a good thing to do if u got a kit is to not lower it.

Then boys, lets all group up and buy it!
Accolade won't make it until we have 10... No more, no less.

Looks cool but the fiberglass thing is quite a turn off.

See this is the same BS that the caused the group buy to fail - No one wants to put up. This kit was not fiberglass it was going to be the same material that they use for all their nu kits now. The hood and the fb was $795.00 shipped to your door and accolade guarantee fitment.

Here's an update on that so called buyers list.

1. Zippo41189 (Havent heard from him since)
2. sXericerider (Probably not interested anymore)
3. SnapDragun (Im down but Im not waiting on anyone to think maybe they want to do this so If if find a kit I like Im buying)
4. Wallesasuaz (Was like f*** it sold his 03 and bought A 06 EVO IX & A 08 Lancer)
5. Newfoundlancer (I doubt he still wants this kit as in his lancer is H.O.T as is)
6. Jehuty (Gave up on his 03 and is giving it to his GF so he can get an EVO)
7. dem_z (Me) ?
8.
9.
10.

Also accolade said that they have closed the door on the 02-03's as in they are not making anymore new products for them so I doubt you will be able to get them to look into this.

New list

1. dem_z (Me)
2. SnapDragun (?)
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.

I say just close this dam thread.
