After about 35 bucks at home depot, a weekend of frustration and endless dremmeling, it was obvious that these lights will never fit no matter what I do to the bracket. I emailed EVO-R and they told me that since I dremmeled the bracket, the kit's not in it's original form and I'm outta luck....and out $430 bucks.

He said on the Paypal claim that I tried to install them upside-down.. I had a professional body-guy with me the whole weekend, and there's no WAY we installed them wrong, and no way that kit will ever fit an FD3S.

There are plenty of pics in a thread I posted on the other forum. Search for "BURNED by fd3s777" (EVO-R's name on that club) to see the (lack of)quality of EVO-Rs junk.
The guy's shady as hell. His eBay profile says USA, but the package came from China. He ignored all my PMs, emails, ebay messages etc, until it was too late to make a PP claim, then blamed the whole ordeal on my installation and kept my money.


EDIT: a true Knightsports kit is what I'd buy it I was to do it all over again. Also, the Rotary Run lights are pretty much universally known as the best-looking sleek kit for an FD.
