I am VERY impressed with ACCOLADE !!!
Mods, sorry if this is posted in the wrong forums. Feel free to move it.
Over a year ago, I had a bad experience with Accolade that alot of you have probably seen me rant about. Well, that's irrelivant because MAN , they helped me out with a sweet deal on a new kit and it felt SOOOO good to hear the manager at the body shop say he was amazed by the quality and packing of the kit. He said most kits they have gotten (mentioning Bomex once) require about 8 hours of prep for front bumpers, a few for side skirts (each) and 6 or so for rear bumpers. This was the case with my old kit but this time, the body shop said 2 for the fb, 1 hour each sideskirt (maybe less), and 1 for the rear bumper. WOW !!! I am impressed. He said they have never seen a kit as good as this one and have seen alot of them. He said they are always just thrown in the box and shipped but this one was bubble wrapped and also wrapped in plastic. NICE JOB Accolade !!!!
I would like to formally apologize to Dimantha and Dave@STRADA (Accolade USA) and say thank you very much for ............... YOU KNOW................... I would also like to thank Will at Lo Pro for his help in my situation. I couldn't be more happy. I can honestly recommend Accolade to ANYONE now and can see that have progressed a great deal in the past couple years. I can't wait til the kit is done. It is a Ken Stlye front bumper and sideskirts and a Evo VII TechSport rear bumper. I will post some pics here when completed.
Once again, Thank you Dimantha and Dave and big thanks to Will at Lo Pro. You are all great people to deal with and I hope this post lets it be known to many that they should go buy an Accolade kit right away
Will, good luck with the IT kits bro. They seem to be great quality too and I am sure that Lo Pro and Accolade BOTH will continue to provide great quality kits for the Lancer community.
Ummmmm......... THAT'S ALL !

hey h8yourv8, i don't know if you got your second hood yet, but the same thing happened to me and they sent me another one but that one doesn't fit either. there's about a 1/4 inch gap on one side and the other side is fine. but the hood doesn't latch on cause the part of the body that the hood is supposed to be over between the engine bay and windshield is blocking it. i'm thinking about bringing it to a body shop or something to make it fit but i don't want to spend money on that. anyone else have that problem?
