Personally, I would only get the kit if I can get brembo brakes, BBS wheels and and etc etc.
I don't see the point to look like an evo when you can't really be an evo
you can however make it look different, more unique
It's just my opinion.

yeah.. thats what i want..the thing is it doesnt matter this kit looks like evo or not, i really do think this kit make the car looks better :), and thats the main reason why i want it :), anyway, its better people know that, it is not evo anyway, it is really a shame when it looks exactly like evo, but didn't have any of evo power...

wow! a lots $ on that parts, i think 3k can get it done.
evo x's body kits are very nice, but i am never wanna be the same with it.
just want to have my own style of body kits on my lancer, do what i like not copy. but if i have enough $ definitely go for a evo!
ps: ur car looks very nice so far! my next mods is that tail light.

I found another evo kit on ebay

search it it should come out wiht $1000

Spray paint + fitting shouldn't be more than what... $700-800?

It seems much cheaper unless you really need wider fenders

@ alex : i think you can't do anything with that one, because he didn't sell the fenders, so it will not fit in our standard car..and it will not worth to buy another fenders from accolade.

you can get the evo styled kits for the cj lancers that dont require the fenders etc.. they are made to fit the normal lancers dimensions.. that would probably be the cheaper way without all the hassle of installing widen fenders

yeah if the EVO look is what you are after and are not particularly worried about the wider body look at ARS one of our sponsors/venders pretty sure they do the EVO kit to fit the NA lancer dimensions.

the thing is say the body kit itself 2k + postage, when it arrive here i have to spend around 500 for the custom thing, and have to install it which is around 1k, if i sum it up it already 3,5k, and i only got body kit without fenders.. and i really do think 5k is not fix price,coz the seller on ebay still got "make an offer" option, so i think i will try to do that first, and see what happen...thanks anyway guys for the help :)

hey mate just some heads up.... i know its your car and your money and you can do whatever you want but i think 5k for this kit is way too much.....

If you really want it and can get the price down then go for it. But cos its a wide body kit its gona cost you alot to fit it on unless you do it yourself, and trust me thats a lot of work >.<

$5.3k for a fake Evo bodykit. I also don't think it's real 'widebody' per the description.

Let's put things in perspective, a genuine VOLTEX Evo kits which include bumpers, CF wing, guards, etc.. cost about $6.5k AUD delivered. I wouldn't be paying more than $1.5k for a fake kit which isn't even guaranteed to fit properly without moulding it into place.

ps. There's plenty of better bodykit shops out there which will sell you the Evo replica kit considerably cheaper.
