better material my ***. their prfp isnt anything more than an overlay of urethane ontop of their fiberglass that they used before. hey so why dont they just make the whole kit in urethane? i dont know, but prfp is a lame *** excuse for good material.

Simple as that

"* All kits comes with a Guarantee on Fitment"

Right there.

Hey doode, dere kits aren't dat cheap, The quality is still better than most of the kits out there on the market. And pluz accolade has distributers you can go to, you don't have to go to Sri Lanka to make a claim. And the kits do fit.

They do have a distributor on the west coast in Cali. But you cannot buy the Apex II (U.S. version from them)(Im not sure you can sue a distributor anyway. I think you have to go after the manufacturer). I only know this because I have been waiting a month for my kit to come in (it is currently held up in customs in NY). I hope you are correct about the fitment because the price was pretty good even after getting hit with a customs charge of 220.80 yesterday.

The U.S. distributor is located at:
ACCOLADE

It took me 2 months before I got my R1 bumper.

Not true. My body shop told me that PFRP is about the best thing they can work with when it comes to body kits. It is fiberglass reinforced, so if it breaks or cracks, it is super easy to fix! It is like urethane on top, which makes painting and prepping very quick and easy. It is wonderful, and it looks great. Im totally happy with my Evo VII kit, and it fits perfect. Only problem was the wait. Took nearly 2 months from the day it left Sri Lanka to the day I picked it up. Of course, this was before the days of the warehouse in cali

the new kits do fit, and are "direct bolt on" (the techsport evo7 is/was). Who infact had the first US Lancer kits? (accolade) "import trenz" in my opinion (and others) say they copied some of accolades kits. And thier kits are fiberglass.
kalamari i think had the first actual kit... but thats not the point... as for import trenz, i don't mean to hate... but they copied a style.... accolade's new prfp is better than just fiberglass or just poly urthane... mainly b/c it is both....

Why pay $650 when you can pay $499 shipped~! If you didn't know already there's a GB for the kenstyle kit hosted by Kromix,
https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...ad.php?t=74846.

If you're ready to buy we need only 1 more, and there's already one more guy who is on it's way to send payment. So join .
