ACCOLADE body kits, look sick but WTF

Tikolx333 · 06-18-2006, 02:44 PM

They have some nice body kit designs on their site, but why do they make the ordering part so difficult, and they dont list prices. I know there is a Accolade rep here somewhere maybe he can help us out. I emailed them about the 4 door kit for the 06 but no reply over a month now.

Forgot the site for the noobs.

I was working with them for awhile on designing stuff for the 06. :)

Their kits were supposed to be out in February. Not sure what happened after that.

Sweet kit. I keep telling myself if it doesn't make it go faster I'm not buying it, but man...

2006BlackSi · 06-18-2006, 09:58 PM

What's funny about it is, all he did was remove the grill and pull the stock bumper down. lol.

But it still looks good. I think subtlety speaks a thousand words. Are their kits poly, fiberglass or some odd fiberglass hybrid?

skittleslegend · 06-18-2006, 10:32 PM

When I was working with them, fiberglass with urethane to come. No word on it though. The owner was out in SEMA when I was designing the lip for the coupe. He said he was working on getting the urethane out sooner, but I dunno if he did or not.

Skittles, are you working on a lip kit for the coupes?

i dont think we will see to many bolt on lips do to the stock ride height being so low. then a small drop and lip on top of that!?

thats why the hfp kit is practical, but i would like to see some stuff already, its making me nuts!

I am on the verge of being sick of people saying these cars are so damn low. Have you ever seen a lowered civic, integra, prelude? My 7th gen was 3 inches off the ground...my prelude had coilovers on it that literally put the subframe on the ground if I wanted, my integra was about 3.5-4 inches off the ground.
These cars will get low...and I doubt people wont put lip kits, or bumpers out because of how low someone can drop their car. Hell, its more business for them if you destroy your bumper.
I think peoples' issue is that they dont know how to take speed bumps, drive ways, etc. Learn to take those things at an angle and you wont have any issues. I have yet to scrape my car, and I have navigated things that I am sure some of you would just laugh at. But, I have driven lowered cars for the past 7 years.
On topic...J's Racing has their front lip in development, and will be out very soon. Just go and look at aj-racing.com

I never really liked that lip. Would be ok, except the sides. I don't want my car to look like an F1 car, no matter how functional it is. Grrrr....

NoBottleJustThrottle · 06-19-2006, 08:47 PM

Im not saying its a good looking lip (I personally think it throws the lines of the car), I was just trying to make a point

My delsol scraped my driveway everyday. I had to go diagonal over speed bumps. The drop we did looked great but was SOOOOOOOO low. Unfortunately, I had to have my front bumper Fiberglassed after I purchased the car as a wreck because it was near impossible to get bumpers shipped from the U.S. to Europe without paying twice their value in shipping.

Believe me, spend good $$$$ on mods, love your car? You learn how to drive the thing around all obsticles but deer, other large furry creatures, wayward pedestrians and inanimate objects approaching at high speeds.
