Evolution VII Techsports Edition Fitment?

So how is it? the Evolution VII Techsports Edition's fitment? If someone feels like being very helpful, you can post a pic of what the underpart of the hood looks like, so i can see how it's built. This question is for the regular and carbon hood. Post whatever you can. Thanks, Matt

fitment is PERFECT ALL AROUND! myself, "MajesticLancer", and "imajinmyfx" mounted and installed it on my rio red es. i will take some pics for you... i dunno if i can get the inner part of the hood.. cuz im the only one thats taking the pic.. (it is built well by the way!) only part that i wasnt happy about is well.. the hood.. lol the latch isnt fitted that well.. it seems too long so it bounces up and down. i dont drive over 80mph right now JUST because of my hood.. But beware... this kit is VERY LOW to the ground. very easy to bottom out.. i've taken a few hits this first week of its installation.. and well this kit is pretty sturdy .. No scratches.. (its still unpainted n un primered)

I got a question that has not been answered yet. I'm supposed to be getting mine next month from Dimantha. Is the grill on that one already molded to the front bumper or is it like the crappy regular EVO VII kit and comes in 2 parts? Thanks man!

lol grill is molded!! all in one.. this kit is almost flawless! it is seriously pimpin'! i say almost cuz i had to take out my Rear safety bar! for my rear bumper to fit but besides that you bought a good kit! in terms of quality ,fitment and style.

Accolade got a lot of brownie points on this one!

Thanks Kid, but knowing how the people will be driving down there in Raleigh, I might keep the stock rear on unless I can find a way to fit the rear bumper over that safety bar! I gotta run though UPS truck just pulled up with my intake, PEACE!!!!

You can get it to fit without removing the rear re-bar. You just need to make a cut, down both sides of the license plate indent. That'll give you enough room to push it snug into place

yeh it was a ***** to install cuz i removed the lights then installed the kit but then it was hard to put b/c u have the grill in the way where u bolt the lights so we had to take out the bumper again and put the lights on first then re install it. i cut my finger really bad trying to make it fit. haha .. o well.... fitment was great. just as long as u use 3 screws under the housing it will fit tight like a virgin, no gaps.


dave, did u get the SS on yet?

BTW,

imajinmyfx and majesticLancer have played a big role reconstructing the exterior of my car. Just wanna give them a PRE-thank you for the moment.. but theres a lot left to be done.. im trying to get it all done labor day weekend (hey that's what labor is about!! )
