Thumbs up EVO 7 front end installed!

Installed my Evo7 kit last weekend. Came out OK. Still need to put in the hood clips, as the hood sometimes bounces a little bit (1/8" bounce) from the latch.

Heres the pics!

#1 Who did you buy from?

#2 Is your front bumper hanging a tad lower than your side skirts or is that the camera angle?

#3 What are you going to use as mesh for the middle?

I like the kit, I plan on getting one around December-January...

be careful with hood pins. It's easy to crack the Accolade hoods b/c of the material and its 2 layers. I have the same kit and took my car to 112 mph and it bounced but didn't break, so just be careful when puting them in. Looks good, mad props.
get some closeup front end pics!

looks like the front bumper is hanging lower than the side skirts, cause the skirts look stock.... im interested in how you're going to mesh also, i dont have any yet and im debating how/what kind. looks nice!

AznFlip, you have a little difference in your picture.... starts with an "inter" and ends with "cooler" . Both cars are looking good though

Thanks for all your opinions, Yes, the skirts are stock, and the bumper is about 1.5 inches lower than the skirts. The skirts are in the future, depending on how long the front end lasts. The kit I bought from AznFlip, as you can see his car with it on there before.

The mesh is in the grill. AznFlip through in some extra mesh, I just had to cut a small square out to lift the hood, so its the same mesh for the bottom. Right now I am looking for a mitsu logo that I can put on the center mesh... I need side skirts that are lower, so if you got them, let me know!
