OK, question for everyone... I got a great deal on a Ken Style Body Kit and I'm pickin' it up tomorrow... problem is, I don't have access to a truck, so I'm thinkin' about shovin' that baby in the Lancer. Anyone think this'll work? Or won't work? Or does anyone in SoCal wanna lend me their truck?! LOL...

The side skirts should fit inside the passenger compartment, if placed in correctly (diagonally), and then the front and rear bumper... i'm thinkin' have them hangin' out the trunk a little, tied down with some rope?? you guys think this'll work??

Just tryin' to get some input before I make the 50 mile trek to the warehouse tomorrow... don't want the trip to be in vain!!

Thanks peepz. Appreciate the input.

 

yeah it should work

 

LOL!!!! i tried that, DONT DO IT. youll scratch up your car really bad and its not worth it. i had to drive slow and everything, just go get a truck. youll be way happier if you get a truck.

 

btw, where in oc do you live? do you have to goto the long beach port?

 

nah, i'm picking up from san bernardino

 

When my bro got his bodykit..................oh man......... we tried to fit that mother in his car like everyway we could think........ we eventually managed to get it in the back of an explorer-- haha.. its impossible dont even try to fit it in a car bro!

edit: bumpers always seem ALOT bigger before they are put on the car .. its crazy.. but anyways.. yea.. it wont fit in a car Good luck tho!

 

man what a bummer... but thanks for the advice at least. i'll try to get a bigger car for tomorrow... anyone in socal wanna drive out to san bernardino with me tomorrow?!?!??! i'll buy you lunch and pay for gas!!!

 

how bout take ur bumpers and side skirts off then drive there without em and put em on at the warehouse and drive home with em on? Just a suggestion...

 

not bad... but... i'm not sure what's involved with fitting the kit. will i have to drill some holes? will i need additional hardware? this is the ABK Ken Style, so i don't know how fitment's gonna be.

you tell me IAMKAREEM... i think you'v eworked with ABKs before... what's involved in putting the kit on?

 

no input from kareem eh? can anyone else tell me anything about fitting the kit? or point me towards a walkthrough or somethin'?

 

their kits are made of pfrp, right? if they are they should bend then. theres a pic of someone bendin a bumper,or somethin, made of pfrp nearly in half. but i dont remember where i saw it.

 

could always bring a blanket and tie it to the roof .. ?? I would think that you could probably drop the front passenger seat, drop the rear seats and fit the kit in there. that is just guessing however. make sure you take some blankets or towels and some rope or thick *** string to tie it down or to hold the trunk closed. good luck!

 

thanks man. i'm hopin' this works!!!

 

I just picked up a Gialla front bumper from RB today in my Camry. Should fit no problem if you remove the passenger side head rest and recline the seat all the way, gives you plenty of room for your side skirts also if need be. Have fun at Accolade

 

I will man, and i'll let everyone know how the experience goes. there's been a lot of talk about accolade, both good and bad, but i'm convinced that they've turned around and are producing quality materials now, and i'm on a personal mission to prove it :P
