accolade mesh grilles
now this maybe the way they make all of these grilles but its very cheap. the mesh is being held up by 3 breakable little clips on the bottom and held by nothing on the top. i feel like the mesh is going to blow off when i drive down the road. does anyone else have grilles that look like this? sorry i cant get pics until i buy a new digital camera.

i bought the accolade mesh grille awhile back, first think i noticed when i took it out of the package was how cheap it looked...it was in four pieces, two mesh grilles, and 2 plastic trim pieces. anyways while going to install it, one of the plastic pieces broke, i admit it was my fault but come on...it looked good in the picture on the website, but in person, mine didnt even fit, i prolly broke it tryin to make it fit, oh well oh and you answer your question, the grille didnt seem like it would stay firmly in place when i first tried to install it, so i wouldnt be surprised if it flew off while driving

if i haven't bought mine off of an evom member (the oem mesh one) then my second alternative would've been this jdm ebay one thats for like $60 shipped. just go to ebay and type in lancer ralliart, they always have it, but yeah i think someone should try that one

the accolade grille is pretty crappy. i was kinda disappointed when i got mine because the paint came all chipped. it definitely was not worth 50 bucks. i just repainted them about a week ago and they look so much better.
hey miquelralliart, your ra is turboed? i never knew that. what kind is it? and did your friend get the tails yet?

I had the Accolade v2 mesh grills and they were perfect! Great quality and much better than v1. I had them for 6months and they never fell off and I drive pretty damn fast, . I sold them because I got the OEM mesh grill for free at the MOD06 last year because Mitsubishi was giving them away.
