I say if it really depends on how the mold that you get comes out.Every mold will probably be different.That's why some people have fitament issues and some don't.I bought an ACCOLADE kit in a group buy a while ago.The front and the sides fit well but the rear doesn't fit well at all.There are small gaps buy the tailights.I'm not bashing or sayin I'm not happy with my kit (Dave's customer service was great ). I'm not saying not to get these fenders either I guess I'm just sayin be prepared with what ever you purchase (especially aftermarket),you might have fitament issues.

That's what everyone wants to know. What happens if the fenders don't fit as is expected? And how well do they actually fit, but since no one has them yet, I guess we won't be finding out for a little while.
If it doesnt fit return them, we will refund the cost, its going to fit fine, there is no doubt in mind. lol. If you guys are so scared wait awhile for people to put them on..

Online they're $225 plus $50 shipping...that is unless Accolade wants to have a group buy or have some discounts for Evom. members. And just an fyi, the Z3 ones are $200 including shipping.

this is a lil off topic..i read the comments at the begining of this thread about accolade. this is my first time dealing with them and ive heard all sorts of opinions on them. so far..they have seemed like an excellent company, but since i ordered my body kit a month ago, at times they would not respond to my emails or never told me if my credit card was even charged..i figured out it was when i saw it on my account. still havnt gotten my body kit.
i really hope this isnt one of those "8 month" deals, as someone posted before. ive asked for a tracking number many times through pms and emails..but havnt gotten one yet. i really hope that accolade can convince me that they are who i thought they are before these problems.

alrite everyone...regarding perfect fit...it is impossible to say they will fit perfectly as it is fiberglass...the only way to be sure bout perfect fit is if the seller tries the exact fender on a lancer, and then makes sure it fits, and then sends it to you...otherwise...theres no way to guarantee perfect fit...idk how many ppl have ever saw a fiberglass part being installed...but it is a pain in da a$$...i installed my body kit myself...it does take a lot of time and modifications. even taking days to install, i could still not get the rear bumper right, front bumper is ok...but it just depends, to install or modify fender, it shouldnt be any problem. but if u run into a fender which isnt a perfect fit...then ur stuck unless company wants to take it back and replace it with another one...and on that becarefull bout the shipping costs...as they are all your responsibility...fiberglass is never perfect...jus look at it that way...hope this helps

VIS is not rushed

, not like when I had the EVO VII Techsport hood on the car
. But here are the pictures of the fenders on the car sorry the car is dirty.
