i am gonna pout

so i am really sad. i have a carbon fiber hood on the car from roadrace. great part really nice great fit.
i got a evo grille from them before we got the hood and it sat around for a long while. we decided to try it on the hood....doesnt fit...very sad.

so i am going to quietly weep in the corner. chocolates and compliments about how pretty my eyes are will help get me through this.

most aftermarket grilles for the lancer, you will have to make modification to the hood for them to fit.

if i was a boy and started a thread about pouting i would be worried. GIRL!

they said a long time ago they cannot say for sure if the evo grille would fit on the carbon hood. i dont know if we can make any adjustments or what. havent really had time to look.

The grill and hood better damn well fit. I was planning on doing that down the road...... I have read that it will fit with very little modification. Let me see if I can find the thread.

i think ROCK was just talking about that this weekend. He was ripping into a guys but over the mixup in the shipping. I'm going to alert him to this post. Think he's been trying to contact you but hasn't been able to get you on the phone.

Anyway, he'll post soon and fix what he should/can.

I had to do that with the vis grill... mounted it in with my stock hood. Wasn't hard at all but i'm sure other things are harder than thought.

its not a hard process to drill new holes, a little search would have told you that they dont go together
