The two EVO VII body kits by Accolade

Hey,
i was just wondering if the whole front side looked a lot different to anyone else. The new one from germany seems not as wide and a bit rounder. I talked to accolade and they said there arent much differences in the front but i seem to see some. Is it just me or does the older one look a lot nicer? (only the front) the back and side skirts are nicer on new body kit. I think it might also be the grills they seem to be diff on the new body kit and also the hood fits on better so i dno. Post ur comments.

By the way you can still buy them both and the older one is $900 and the new one is like $1400 so post away.

I like the new one, even though they are almost quite similar.

the front is different because on the new7kit you dont have to remove the reinforement bars and it US spec not like the other one which was more J-spec and there is a group buy goin on for the new kit , i think its 950 shipped to bussiness and 1000 to residential

new one is better, it would be cool if a company made it look jdm, but also made a reinforcement bar to go with it.

I know a guy who got the JDM kit shipped over here. He has the full JDM kit. Not sure exactly where he orderd it from but it was the real kit.

most likely if you have a lancer, you have full coverage ins. if you got into an accident with the 1st kit on you ins. co. might not cover it because you modifided the safety of your vehicle

both of accolade's E7 kits fit without removing the front impact bar. I have the first version... and am super happy with it. If I had the choice, I would have waited for the new techsport one, but it costs more and it wont even be here in the states for another couple months.

MeWantBoost: correctino, they'll be in a lot sooner than that...Accolade has got/is getting them in for a group buy that is going on right now! for shipment only...get in on the gb if you want a great price. There's a thread on it...too lazy to go look for it.
