a case for accolade
ok, so this is a minor case for accolade. more specifically Dave@accolade. he worked with myself and my roommate who owns the lancer in getting a ken style body kit. first the price was good 650.00 shipped. we were very wishywashy about it and went back and forth with questions and doubts and had a million problems (on my end) with paypal and getting payment to Dave. and through all of this Dave was understanding helpful and prompt with responses. we spoke to him on the phone as well very very nice and professional.
now for the cool part. we asked dave if we could get the "vented" rear bumper with the kit. he said no problem and no extra cost. through the process of us getting our crap together dave lost his last vented rear bumper to a distributer. he let us know right away. no big deal we'll just get the regular bumper. so we order he confirms payment and at the last second he gets another shippment of kits and there is a vented bumper in the shippment. he unpacked ours and repacked it with the vented right before he shipped it knowing we prefered that one. awesome of him.
now the amazing part. we ordered the kit on a wedensday we got the kit on friday. thats right 2 days total shipping.
now i know that there are no problems with the kit itself. quality is there upon inspection. the front and sides were predrilled the rear wasnt but i imagine that is because of the quick change when he got more in. we havent had it installed and painted yet so i cant comment on install ease or anything that may be a problem on that end so far. but with the experience i have had i can only imagine the kit will be just fine.
i HIGHLY recommend if you are in the market for a body kit and want no hassle go to Dave@accolade. really really good business very honest nice and professional and serious about making all this negative accolade press go away. i am glad to help in that.
sorry so long. will post pics and comments about install once we get off our asses and get that done

DAMN U! now you make my decision harder.
o yeah, and dave, do you know the color of that lancer w/ the ken kit on it. It looks to be the Asain model.... but i don't know.

update on a case for accolade.
the boys installed the body kit today and it fit pretty damn good. a couple of minor flaws that were no problem to handle and a slight issue with the rear bumper but nothing a little cutting wont fix.
now this is pretty cool overall as the boys have never installed a body kit before in thier lives.
next up is painting and we have decided to try something we havent done before and do it ourselves. i will keep everyone updated and post pics of the kit installed as soon as i can. thanks again dave
