Installing my Accolade EVO VII Body Kit

[EDIT]
FINISHED INSTALLING! GO HERE:
https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...836#post858836


I just got my Accolade EVO VII full body kit back from the paint shop. This kit came from the group buy headed up by LoPro Motorsports (Thanks LoPro )

I've got the front bumper and the hood installed right now, fitment is so far near perfect. I'm impressed, especially with all the Accolade trashtalk going around. The kit definately gives the car a wider, more agressive look, I love it! And not to mention The Evo VII Spoiler finally looks like it belongs there


I'm going to follow Accolades instructions for the grill/FB install tommorow I'm also going to work on the side skirts as well. Here are some pics!

The grill isn't attatched to anything, it's just leaning on the hood. It fell down a second after I took the pic lol.

Installation TIPS

Hi Mori,

The US lancer has been designed in such way that to remove the FB you have to remove the lights. so our first version of the Evo VII comes in such away that it has to be fitted with the lights on.

Please follow the link.

If you have any problem please PM me

regards

Accolade

Yes the latch fit perfectly

I have no problems opening or closing the hood.

At first I thought the hood wouldn't go down all the way, but all I had to do was screw in the rubber cushions (the ones that soften the impact of the hood dropping) a little bit more.

Ok excellent

Again mori remeber that when you are painting the front bumper

you have to have fully fixed on the car.

just like this pictures.

So the body ship will have to paint it while onthe car.

They will cover the lights and other areas with paper.

if you have allready painted you can touch up it anyway

Sorry if we did not make that point clear,

this method will give a better finish.
