Good Quality Bodykits In Sydney - Emphasis On Quality

[Chris_R33GTSt]

Hi Guys,

I have been researching bodykits for a while now and have read a whole heap of posts on people getting ripped off etc.

How about good body kits that are strong and fit well. Maybe even PLASTIC? Where can I go in Sydney to get a good kit, or is there someone who could help to get one from Japan... Are these places a secret LOL?

Who has had a good experience buying a nice kit? Share photos!!

we stock alot of jap kits including V-system urethane, it is not a secret we sell allot... but most general guys dont want to pay for decent urethane kits as they start from around 2k and go all the way up to 4k depending on how many pieces there are.....

The main problem with kits that are made overseas is that people who import them have little to no control over the molds which in turn causes fitting issues. There is no denying that on a dollar basis the Overseas made kits cannot be beaten. Whereas there are some really good quality fitting kits made here that will cost about 5 times what an imported kit costs. Polyurethene kits are great because each and every single one will be the same because the material is not as effected by climate conditions as much as fibreglass is nor will the mold suffer as much damage, however they do come with a high price tag. If you are a spirited driver and are likely to damage your kit through daily events like poor parking lots with concrete wheel stops then I firmly believe the money invested in a polyurethene kit will be wasted as they will be damaged at around the same rate. (I believe) What you need to do is find someone who has both the quality control checks in place and the control over molds to give you a good quality fitting kit at a very good price. I think we at PSI Parts have done this, however as with anything involving quality it will take time to expand the range of kits. As our main focus is on quality of products not quantity. These are purely my thoughts and I'm keen to hear other peoples opinions on this matter.

that and dodgy backyarders flopping bodykits that dont fit in the first place.........

if you buy a genuine kit and take a mould of it thats i first generation flop, alot of the kits you see are 3rd,4th and even 5th generation flops...

everytime you copy a kit there is a small amout of shrinkage, thats fibreglass ladies and gentlemen. i laugh everyday when yet another car comes into work with a poor quality kit or a dodgy carbon/fibreglass bonnet.. asking can you fix this?? I'd pay the money and buy a genuine kit from a reputable company.. ie final konnection or C-west
