cuz... the grill isn't made for a vis hood which is slightly different

 

the hell?? the grille fits FINE with the Vis Hood. it DOESn'T fit fine with the front bumper. Where did the hood come into the conversation?

the ingenious logic continues

 

Why dont YOU get the facts straight kid.... See this is rigo's car with the ACCOLADE front bumper, you can see the SAME gap as with the RRM CF Bumper:



And as you can see this is his car with the CF grill and a stock hood, no gap at all...



So it is conclusive that the CF HOOD that is causing the grill's lower portion to bow the way it does. RRM's kit fitment is as good as it gets.

 

does carbontrix make a grille that would fix the gap?

 

Carbontrix MAKES that CF grill u see... it's the ****ty VIS hood that is causing the grill to be squeezed in and thus bow upward. RRM's (carbontrix's) stuff fits perfectly fine.

 

thanks for the lesson. so its the VIS hood that fits like crap i guess.

 

yah... in your face



evo owners... haha... take it from a professional who actually did this kit.

I am not a fan of cf bumpers unless it's all over the car, but nice stuff and look good Rigo.

IMO, paint it to match

 

alex alex get **** straight man before u mouth off.

thank you

As you can see from my pic below my full cf front fits perfect. Carbontrix did a great job on the bumper and hood fitment. Its a 100% perfect fit, no gaps whatsoever. Its hard to get every cf piece to be perfect and its even harder to keep it looking clean when driving with it. So far the evo parts from carbontrix are excellent.

 

ok sorry...i had a full day today so im goona try to asnwer all the questions there is....


lets see...first issue

gaps....thats my fault....my headlights...well im in the process of getting new ones to fix that gap....between the grill and the bumper...was already answered....

jaylo and kremem pretyt muuch covered the rest of the questions...

fitment....bad fitment?...from the guy in the benzo...wow...i guess bad fitment is when the bumper bolts right up huh? what a moron...get the hell out of here...it wont fall of onthe freeway...as i already drove it 150 miles ont he freeway today....and on my way home on a private road...i speed tested it....100mph and fits tighter than...:sigh:..ill leave your mom alone tonight...

mesh...yes mesh will be installed...just didnt have anytime at all today...sometime next week it will be done...

so all in all i love it...my girl loves it...and thats pretty much all that matters...and my VIS hood and headlights and the ones that need to be adjusted...

hey ROB...hoook me up with some CF fenders? ya?...and skirts aswell
ill be back for more

jaylo...rob...again i can thank you guys enough...awesome product....

oh and my old bumper is in the trash...cus...well i ran into a pole...so i didnt pay for the bumper insurance did

 

yout car is what inspired me to do it i love it...i want golides now....but turbo first...

 

Thank you gofaster87... i respect guys like you... especially with nice taste.

 

geesh, you lancer guys are fiesty. I'll admit, i confused exactly which part was the crappy one. I haven't really bothered learning about the lancer stuff.

I can vouch for Sam (gofaster87's) stuff. I was a bit skeptical about it jsut seeing it in pictures, but the quality is top notch

 

Thank You... yes we are fiesty... and PROUD ... but Vis stuff is actually the part to blame. otherwise, stock hood with a cf grill would have worked fine. but the vis hood with a cf grill doesn't fit well to begin with... i'll get pictures of my kit on tuesday for shure. and have it posted.
