new body kit maybe

hey guys i emailed this to JTAutostyle.com the other day.

"hello,
my name is Nico Malone and i am a member of a large Forum community at evolutionm.net. we focus on the US Mitsubishi Lancer and the Evo 8. i am emailing you today to ask about possible production of a body kit for the 02-03 Mitsubishi Lancers. i know from countless threads on the forum that new body kits are always a hot topic and there are many many people willing to purchase kits. the reason i am emailing your company is because we know you focus on the "EVO" style kits. i have attached a couple of images of a body kit created in Puerto Rico for the lancer that fits the EVO tradition and has the agressive look that many Lancer owners are looking for. i am curious if there is a possiblity that you can produce a kit like or similar to this. i know that it would be a hit in the Lancer market. thank you for your time.

-Nico Malone

this was thier response. i posted pics of that blue tico racer carwith the email.

There are currently no plans to produce a kit for that car. If you would like to discuss the posibility of making a custom kit and mass producing it, we might be able to work out a group buy type of deal with you. please call us to discuss this.

I'd be willing to participate in this deal. We need someone out in cali to use as a project car. Once the first kit is made, mass production would be easier and we all could have a new sweet jt autostyle kit!!

if its the blue lancer with the evo 5 front (i think) im in, but only if the group buy price is reasonable. oh and make sure the mold is at least a decent fit. i dun wanna bring it to a shop and have them work on it jusut to make it fit properly like everyone else. i dun see how they can say this kit is for your car but then you have to spend the cash just to make it fit. but other then that im in.

I would be on on the before stated conditions. I just cant bring myself to go with Accolade, after all the probs I read about. This sounds like a nice alternative.

yo yellow, where'd u hear that? cuz if they dont do business with accolade, they might have better things now...

just so u guys know, i emailed VIS www.visracing.com, company who makes very good kits and the best carbon fiber hoods, if they were ever going to release a kit for the 02 03 lancer, and they said check by around the summer...

i hope they make a phucked up one man, i love the civic OCTANE kit...
