i was thinking the same thing..but Accolade is a trustworthy company.. and i dont think they would lie about something like that....

genx_7 04-17-2005 10:33 AM

I don't see the sideskirts or the rear bumper?

MiamiUgen7 04-17-2005 10:36 AM

That front bumper is hot

gearbox 04-17-2005 10:37 AM

looks terrible imo

HondaGuy12 04-17-2005 10:40 AM

i think it will look hot.. i want to see how much it will cost just for the front bumper..i also emailed the company asking if they are coming out with anymore kits for the 04-05..

import2nr 04-17-2005 10:42 AM

looks like they took the stock bumper and streched it out

jhonsok 04-17-2005 10:58 AM

that pic is most definately a photochop, i hope they got Hondas permission to use that photo.

FINALLY SOME ACTION...

gearbox 04-17-2005 11:07 AM

okay so it's not released yet.///

that one is released they have ordering info for it..so they have to be able to produce it...

cubanmike26 04-17-2005 11:56 AM

It's not a photoshop guys. I had seen that kit a long time ago, like 2 months ago. Like HonndaGuy12, I too spoke to one of the reps. at Acolade overseas. He told me that the kit is not released yet for US. I'm still waiting for an email to see if they'd be able to ship it overseas. I also asked him if it was a polyurethane or regular fiberglass. Still waiting for reply.
IMO that front looks hot; we may be even able to somehow attach the OEM foglights on the holes.

beastiek2 04-17-2005 01:26 PM

so dumb lol

Pitch_BlacK 04-17-2005 07:34 PM

Looks hot but I definitely believe that is a photochop they did because that's the photo of the sedan in honda's catalogue. I wonder how much would that cost tho?

MegaHurtz 04-17-2005 07:38 PM

heh

the pic is a photochop

the kit is real

the chop is just to show what it will look like

runner1738 04-17-2005 09:10 PM

are they making just grills by any chance?

cubanmike26 04-17-2005 09:11 PM

Oppps, my bad, yeah it's a ps. I remember now seeing this pic on one of those advertisements that Honda has at the dealerships, but whatever, if the kit looks like that I like it.

aznstylez254 04-17-2005 09:47 PM

is it just me or does the front end now look like the new tiburon facelift now?

Akutenshi 04-18-2005 04:06 AM

man the whole point that the pic they use to show their product is a chop is retarded. why is this thread even here? lol. its not even real... if it was a kit out there in overseas.... why havent any of our members there seen it yet? i doubt its real at all. n the company is probably just bullshitting.

cubanmike26 04-18-2005 07:27 AM

but why does it have ordering info? I also emailed that company and recieved emails from him saying that this one is going to be in production.. they have a sister site where you can design your own bodykits..i forget the name of it.. .. and here is what the emails said.
First Email
Hi Sir,

Yes it fits your model. Infact as you can see we have so many kits for
lancer and will be like that for the civic.

So we are coming out with 2 new kits. I will keep you updated on the
Deadlines. But sadly our launch will only take place in JUNE in USA.

This is just to keep you informed,

regards

Chris.

Second Email

Sir we still on the development stage of the kit and will be producing it soon,

We just came with the concept as we want feedback from customers,

Hi

I am from Accolade and i am the designer behind the Type N kit,

We have put the concepts until they are Patented under industrial designs.

First the kit will be launched in EU. But this will take some time to come to USA, But you can get it really quick if you can convince us that there is a lot of cars sold of this model. If you can get us the figures of how many cars are sold in USA per month we can get it released ASAP. Also please this will not be the only kit we will design. We will have two or 3 kits more for this model.

Please you could email me on dimantha@body-kit.com

cubanmike26 04-21-2005 10:22 PM

:rockon:Lets get to work guys :rtfm:
Thanks for the info. Accolade, by the way...we have seen the front and many people here have already agreed on it..., but is there any way we could see the rest of the kit? :hgrin:

runner1738 04-21-2005 11:46 PM

HondaGuy12 04-22-2005 08:40 AM

im going to call this new front the m3 replica kit..because to me it looks simular to the m3 front... ( maybe we can retrofit some m3 fogs into the holes?)

well lets see there is 30 dealerships in just the chicagoland area (60 mile radius search from 60515 zip on automobiles.honda.com) from talking to a sales person at a local dealership...he says they sell about 3 a month on average (no solid figures would be given to a nobody like me..cited as business reasons). Just going off that, lets do the math:
3/month x 30/locations= 90/year for chicagoland area. thats just my own facts. Also found this:

TORRANCE, Calif. 04/01/2005 --

With strong light truck and hybrid vehicle sales, American Honda Motor Co., Inc., posted March results of 128,548 Honda and Acura vehicle sales, an increase of 6.9 percent over March 2004. American Honda posted its second best ever March light truck result with sales of 55,764 units, up
19.4 percent. All-time record sales of Honda hybrid models jumped 71.4 percent to 4,814 units including 2,896 Civic Hybrids and 1,862 Accord Hybrids. Year-to-date American Honda total vehicle sales of 308,182 rose 0.2 percent on a daily selling rate basis.

"It's no surprise that consumers are looking to more fuel efficient vehicles as gas prices continue to rise," said **** Colliver, executive vice president of American Honda. "Our entire lineup meets this demand better than any other manufacturer with three different hybrid models, more fuel efficient cars and trucks, and the highest overall fuel economy of any full-line manufacturer."

The Honda Division posted its second best March and fifth best month ever with sales of 109,949 cars and light trucks, an increase of 7.4 percent over year-ago results. This month marks only the second time in Honda Division history that the 100,000 sales barrier has been broken in March. Accord sales of 33,075 rose 2.4 percent, helping the division post sales of 59,198 passenger cars, up slightly from the previous March on a unit basis. Driven by record sales of the all-new Odyssey and Pilot, the Honda Division reported its second best March of light truck sales, up 22.9 percent to 50,751 units. The Civic Hybrid marked its third best month with sales of 2,896 units, while the Accord Hybrid posted sales of 1,862 units, its largest sales month since its December 2004 introduction. The all-new 2006 Honda Ridgeline truck also had a strong showing in its first full month on the market with sales of 3,875 units.

The Acura Division posted best ever March sales of 18,599 and its
17th consecutive record-setting month of sales. Acura posted a new March record with sales rising 3.6 percent to 18,599 cars and light trucks, including a record month for Acura cars of 13,586 units. The new RL luxury performance sedan generated sales of 1,376 units with an increase of 193.8 percent over last year's results. The TSX sports sedan marked its fourth consecutive month of record sales with 3,107, an increase of 35.6 percent. Acura year-to-date sales of 48,414 have risen 7.7 percent versus a year ago.
