I have been doing some more research
Ernie will not make and sell a pair of guards.
He wants to sell the moulds for the front guards, front bar std GTR, Nismo side skirts and rear bar for $6000
He has got to be joking.
Can organise the genuine Masa front guards for $1150 plus freight from Japan EMS
thru a Australian company that deals with them
I have studied the photo of the parts in the kit Masa sells and priced the parts up
Guards approx $1650
Bonnet $650 fibreglass carbon $1050 could maybe get a genuine alloy one for $1000
Head lights s/hand $400 pair (just bought some)
Front bar copy of GTR or most other aftermarket ones $500
All the factory bits needed, hinges, bonnet catch, bar support, radiator support etc $1000-1200 new
Front indicators $150
Total approx $5000
Less the sale of the factory stagea front of $1500-2000
I can do the conversion myself and most the painting, so it should cost me about $3500-4000 for the conversion.
I just need to find a car now!
I have one in the pipe line that will only owe approx $11000 landed and complied, so will see how I go. It is a petty that the conversion will cost as much as the car will
When i get the guards, I will be making a set of moulds, just incase they get broken. (I might also sell them too )
