Its just a larger front opening. looks very boring. No actually pics, No side skirts, no rear = pile of crap.

I'm not going to pay $500+ for a front that gives me a larger front opening that will require me to remove the front support/bumper.

All of the above posts were moved. Show some respect - don't go back and forth about Accolade's parts in RRM's thread.

Damn you guys need to calm down and think about stuff. Here's the link: http://body-kit.com/lancer2008bodykit.html
Now, that's not a real kit on a lancer, it's a picture, maybe photoshopped. But it's so shaded and dark you can't even tell what the bumper actually looks like other than it has a large opening. Why would that make you remove you're front bumper support? And also, it's not like RRM has their kit out yet either so it's not like accolade is behind on anything, also if their is no kit made yet, it's kind of hard to have side skirts and rear bumper shots of it. They at least have a date set. So what do you mean by who will wait till december? What, are they going to just buy the kit they don't have yet now instead of waiting? So the olnly other option you have is the Evo X style bumper from whatever company makes that. And lastly, it will be the first kit they make for the new lancer, do you expect it to be some insane expensive crazy kit? It probably will cost a bit, but nothing different from what they've been selling.

I would buy that front bumber to avoid the common vinyl evo style bumper everybody is on right now.

Dont worry guys, I am sure we will have a a nice selection in the very near future.. Patience is a Virtue. Some of the previous gen lancers know how it feels. they spend on the first new designs that come out, but it is only a bit later when designs are truly ironed out that they feel that they should have waited.. 3 months makes a difference in this industry!
