Evo V body kit

Does anyone know of a company who makes good EVO 5 body kits? The only place I've seen is VisionAutodynamics.com. Does anyone know if their kit is any good?

You could talk to an Accolade rep to make sure they don't produce it anymore. He could tell you for certain. But if they don't I think the link Marcio gave you should suffice.

damn it nooooo.... and i thought i was the only one that was gonna be with the evo5 body kit.. if you like scraping on stuff all the time like the littlest hills... i wouldnt suggest getting it. Im like litterally, 2 inches off of the ground. i have already craked my front bumper which SUX major ***... its a tight kit i like, but the sides are not very different at all. They are urethane which is a good thing, but they just flare out on the front and the back and a lil bit lower.. that's about it..i got mine from www.importtrenz.com took a long *** time to get to my place about 3 months, cause of supposedly "back order" its the same body kit as the Jt Auto Style one. so i would order it from there directly...oh yeah. you are going to have to get your exhaust lowerd, or get center exhaust.. tooo

Sounds like it's a hassle... although sometimes it's worth it

How much is it gonna cost to get your exhaust relocated? That might be one of the more expensive things...

I believe it is a special exhaust though.. it runs out the center and you have to buy it from JT autostyle because they are the only ones who make it.

Website says the kits are made of fiberglass, that could be why your bumper cracked.
