The shop I took my parts to opened the hood, pulled the paint code, and never saw my car again!

The hood will be going bye bye soon. I want the evo 7 front that doesnt require a hood, and use my stock hood instead.

Looks good. It is rare to see a car with a body kit that is not lowered and it looks right. Great job.

Looks great, keep it how it is. If anything just go with some aftermarket struts (I believe KYB is making these now) and maybe put some mesh in the bumper and the grill hole.

Great work! Keep your badging, no sence in trying to be something your not!

Ashame the paint isn't right because I'm thinking into the EVO 7 but then again if it was the right color you'd probably be keeping it.

I had some NEX coil overs before, but I kept denting rims, so I put the stock back on, and stepped up the tire a lil bit... its on its way! I still dont know about shaving the trunk... but we shall see in time!




Fitment was time consuming, but pretty easy on the back, The side skirts dont match up how I would like them to, but you get what you get... I am extremely happy w/ the paint most of all. The front will change soon, going to go stock on the hood, and order the accolade evo 7 bumper that doesnt require the hood... need all the paint to match! and i hate the hood :-) so yeah...hood and front bumper for sale lol!

I'm at work right now, but yeah the ride looks nice, whatever happens to the hood, MAKE SURE YOU GET HOOD PINS!!!!!! Later!

I do like the look, but what about the mesh, is that included? and I dont see a grill on that hood, just the vent on the top. Also, whats the price, and is the latch the correct size? The latch thats on my hood I have now is not the same, and I had to modify it to get rid of the rattling in the latch part on the car. Also, Im not too into watter getting into my engine bay, hard enough to clean it up as it is.

Could you give me the part number for the evo 7 front bumper which does NOT require a hood. I would like a CF hood down the line, but not just yet.

can you get a closer pic of how you meshed the grille part? i need to get mine meshed up, but dont know how to do it so i can still reach the hood lever when i pop it.

My mesh is not metal, its plastic, and I used small zip ties, and drilled small holes in the bumper/grill parts.
