Check out my car of many colors

I finally finished getting the Evo7 kit installed today. With the GT hood not fitting, Dave shipped out an Evo 7 hood the day after I let him know the GT didn't fit. OD freight lines lost the Evo 7 hood and it took 'em almost a week to find it. So now after a stressful 2 weeks it's all installed and going in to be painted on Monday. I have to work this weekend or I'd of installed it then. I ended up getting the Apex sides cause I think the E7 sides are really ugly (sorry to any that have 'em). Whats funny is I've already had 4 people ask if my cars supposed to be 3 differant colors.

LOL, lots of heavy duty black zip-ties, it'll get molded on Monday before it's painted but right now just the zip-ties

Think MORE before you mold that grill...because it will be pain in the *** if you ever want to take your headlights off or changing your bumper. That's why I didnt mold mine, 4 custom brackets is holding my grill.

Yeah, the only thing I'm worried about is if I ever want to change my hood then I'll have to change the bumper and vise-versa. Headlights, I don't mind taking off the bumper to mess with them since I won't do it that often anyways. Any way you could send me a couple pics of what you did with the brackets?

Sure, when I have the time...because it's raining and cold outside, probably I'll take a pic and post them 2morrow. Don't paint your hood yet, get the Accolade CF hood instead , that's what I'm planning to do.

Looks real nice!!!Did your kit have any small cracks that needed to be fixed?My ken style had a few cracks in the front bumper and the back.One crack went straight though.I didn't really see them when I got it to my house but when I took it to the body shop that's when I saw them.So needles to say alot of prep work had to be done.

Just had one small crack in the rear bumper. Already fixed that though. Other than that, nothing. I was pretty impressed compared to some of the body kits I've gotten in the past
