[R32 _ULTIMATE_WEAPON]

Hi all

I've got a R32 gts-4 it has a jet speed FINAL KONNEXION Body-Kit but I don't like the look of the side skirts . I've looked around and found a set that I like on carmate.com.It's in NSW so Has anyone got kits from them what do you think and how do they fit?

[Vtec Y0!]

In my opinion and from what ive heard, Carmate kits are cheap, but have flaws. They often mis-fit, do not line up with OEM threads, and are made from cheaper/thinner fibreglass. But you get what you pay for.

Spend the extra money and go elsewhere.

you get what you pay for thats definatley the case with these guys

their kits are dirt cheap but they are also rubbish too

try Jetspeed...At least the service is better

[Trust33]

i totally dissagree with ur comments...

Bonnet was from carmate and the prep work was allot better than the prepwork that was done on the bodykit i bought from jetspeed..Imo..The bonnet needed no modifycation also.

Jspeed/Cmate both = very cheap and very nasty.

Stay away from both carmate and jetspeed..

I'd be a bit wary of carmate, I bought a fibreglass R33 Type-M style front lip from them recently...It arrived quickly enough, complete with a 6cm crack in a pretty visible location (see my avatar - the crack was the on the bottom left corner). I thought it might've been shipping damage but my panel shop informed me that someone had tried to do a dodgy repair on it (and hadn't succeeded!)...which ruled that out.

The good news was once the panel shop had repaired it, the fit was pretty damn good.

I got side skirts from them that were about 15mm short too! Imo carmate are shit, poor service, tried ripping me off and the skirts had to be remoulded to fit my car, and they also had a crack in them!! I would not recomend anyone to them, the quicker they go outta business the better!!
