Fibreglass Copies Of Jenesis Body Kits

[the big JC]

I have been talking to a guy in Tassie about geting fibreglass copies of these parts made

he recons about a grand for a kit including both bars and side skirts not sure what he wants for the front lip but he needs one of each of the parts in good condition to use as a template and he needs atleast 5 people commited to buying them be for he will make any so i recon that a grand for a full kit is pretty bloody good concidering how hard they are to get so i guess someone would have to loan him these parts to make the first mould.

so if people are genuinely interested or have any of these parts they are willing to loan to him or something i dont know how he wants to go about it. I will have more info on prices soon

here is a sample of some R31 stuff he has done

yes! got it under the house.

Problem Josh, I went down the same track you are years ago and everyone thinks .... great idea, but when it comes to putting up the dosh, there is no one to be seen.

I had a guy in Campbelltown that was prepared to make the mould for $350.00 and churn them out at about $200 each, so I could sell them for about $300 each, but I wanted 50% up front an zero response was the go.

I have a similar rear as well, if I had a scanner working, I would give you a pic of that too, but the side skirts come in 2 varieties from Jenesis and getting them was going to cost me about $2000 landed in Oz.

Makes for a VERY EXPENSIVE body kit, so I opted for the stock DR set up.

Cheers, D

Sorry! wrong pic

so if i wanted to get a front and rear bar done would he make a one off or would he only do it if he had a few buyers i dont have the money at the moment anyway i want to get the turbo conversion done first i was just talking to a fibreglasser about it the other day and thourght id see how many people would be interested i thourght that there would be more interest in them but i guess not.

what did you pay for your bars

It's not new, and it has to be repaired slightly to get a mould made, but what you see in the pic cost me zilch.

The repairs were going to cost just $50 but the 2 pak spray job was going to cost about $400 as it had to be perfect, so the mould would be that way, otherwise any imperfections in the original, would come out in the copies.

so would you be interested in selling those bars you have later down the track

Maybe!

My take on the front bar is this. As it sits over the existing bar it sits proud by about 20mm off the front guard and for my money, it looked a bit out of place, unless guard flairs and side skirts were also available.

Guard flairs for R30's are non existent, from my sources unless custom make is on your agenda.

I don't think there would be enough interest, to spend the dollars necessary to get them made, but that's up to you.

Do some homework on the other bits before you concern yourself with the bars.

i can make my self some gaurd flares fairly easy and i think that would make the world of difference so if you were to sell the bars what would u want for them
