but if anyone knows where to get it holla' |
accolade makes the worst fitting fenders in the history of fenders. I have a forum member's car sitting in my back driveway with them on. 1/4 to 3/8th's gaps at best, overall fitment of 3 out of 10.
|
LoL, ive heard Veilside has fitment issues too, modifying isnt cheap i guess.. i think its the nature of plastic materials in general.. we have some local rx8s in our club here who run the accolade cspec fenders, granted they did put some work into it, but overall it wasnt that difficult or so i hear, and their cars came out looking great.
|
the only thing worse then Accolade's fitment is their customer service.

the VIS stuff isn't too bad. xdeedubbx has their CF hood and it looks pretty good.

:lol: wow, stick on hood scoop, I thought those were for 96 silverados with swampers and whips on 'em, I though wrong.
|
i couldent find those on the hookupshops website. whats the price on them?
|
I have my turnout gear on, so let the flaiming begin.
I kind of like the first hood scoop. I've been wanting a little something else for the hood. I think it looks tastefully done. Not too much like those twin scoops you see on the Silverados. But...for that kind of money, I'd rather get a go fast part. |

Why not buy a hood with real vents? |
because its easier to put something on with 3m tape than to unbolt 4 bolts... duh

Crystal Lake, Im not too far from ya.
^Oh sweet! What are the odds? Apparently 100%. As for the real vent question...I would modify the hood so it functions as a real vent. Even a nice CF hood only saves you one pound in weight. Not worth the money, IMO. |
