Pumping guards

[ted]

Hi all,

Just curious if anyone has had any real of half decent results pumping cc lancer front gaurds? Or do i bite the bullet and try and find some evo gaurds? Ive gone and purchased some 15x8s and they hang out a poofteenth on the front. And suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Evo guards will solve the problem and easier that way.

Will they bolt upto my wagon and match the bonnet profile? And i assume ill need a bumper to match the guards?

Yes they will bolt up and match the bonnet....not sure about the bar...might be able to work around that?

can roll guards about 10 mm. But need to be very careful

Worth a go pumping the stock guards first if you have a guard roller, can pick up replacements cheap plus would be easier to line up with the non-evo front bumper. Plus don't be afraid to run a little extra neg camber, will help greatly at getting the front to tuck.

Evo guards are valuable now, please don't ruin a set. For 15*8 I assume you are running it quite low?

I run a ce wagon (same as cc wagon) and at the moment the front is stock height and rears are half are makita coils (one full coil removed) will go lower just want to sort the wheels first. Trust me im not crazy enough to ruin anything genuine evo

Have you tried just trimming back the inner lip slightly?
Easier to cut back than fold it....

Not yet but i will, will see how far i can take the standard guards.
