Looks just like the pics on EVO-R's website:

And if they are installed backwards, why doesn't EVO-R help the guy out with instructions on how to make them work? Seems that would solve the problem and make everyone happy.

Looking at Natey's pictures, I don't see how anything being "backwards" is going to change fitment. If things were off just a little, I could see that but considering how far things are off I have some doubts.

I can't get the link to work, and I had a professional body guy with me when I attempted to install the kit. We didn't reverse anything, the shrouds weren't even close to fitting into the buckets OR under the covers, there's no way the lights could have closed withe the EVO-R kit installed, and that kit is completely worthless unless you want a set of 400+ dollar Chinese H3 bulbs.

BTW, I lost my Paypal claim since I tried to make the kit fit by Dremmeling the brackets, so I've been burned for 425 bucks to a RX-7 Club forum member. Don't let the ebay auction fool you, either. My package came from China, not the USA, and that guy ignored countless emails. PMs, and ebay massages before ripping me off.

That's just wrong if they fit this badly why continue to sell them. I'm sure fd3s777 has nothing to say right

WOW! I thought about this kit today as KS kits are no longer available.. Glad I read this before purchasing it.

This guy has it for sale on ebay and he contacted me today.

There is a reason why paypal always pushes for the buyer to use his bank account rather than a CC. The CC company can pull the funds right back out while your bank can't. Thus leaving you at the mercy of paypal to just say "sorry the the account that your money was deposited into is zero, therefore we can't get you your money back:

Good luck keep us updated.

yup same strategy i use, if you buy over the internet, be ready for issues with your product as you cant check it out in your hands before you buy it, and be armed with a quick way to get your money back, credit card!!! paypal has no business in your checking account in the first place.

Sorry to hear this man...either way you could even win your PP claim and they won't do ****. I've had 3 guys run off with money before and PP said they couldn't get funds...my latest issue was a larger transaction and put me out over 200 bucks, so I filed a claim with my bank and they got my money back

This was with PP linked to my checking account too..but since then I've switched PP to my Credit Card..much safer.

I hear you on trying to modify them to work, but that just gave that D bag reason to deny your refund =/

Nice cleavage shot btw haha

The invention of the internet has littered the market with crap parts.

I've been really shocked lately by Shineauto, those guys are the only people I've seen that can provide you tremendous replica's at low prices.

you'd be surprised how many people would sell their soul to the devil if given the chance.
