See. You guys just have to have patience. stuff takes time even if you want them to happen as quickly as possible. I cant speak for everyone but i think accolade is trying and will eventually be one of the lancers top producers for the Lancer aftermarket. Who knows

Personally I wouldn't touch an E7 hood, and I really wanted the GT hood. Better test fit it before you even paint it for me Dave!

h8yourv8, i had the same problem with my CF hood ... put the hood on without bolting it on to the hindges... if it fits then u'll know its something to do with the holes on the hood. .. to make it fit i drilled the circles on the hindges into ovals so i just re-bolted it and pulled it forward

Yeah, I really wanted the GT hood too. I like it better not only cause of look but alos if I ever get a new front bumper I don't have to change my hood back to stock. Oh well, the E7 hood still looks good and I like it's grill

Yeah, I tried without bolting it. Still wouldn't latch. Pushed as hard as I could and all it did was lift the back of the hood about 3-1/2 inches and the sides didn't line up at all.
