Id tell you but i can read japanese....

on 2nd thought, the kits could be copy's of real brand names thus making it half the price

How much do they usually go for here in Australia? Because add the shipping and the commission to the people who you're paying to get that in Australia and the price would most likely double.

i was going to buy it from japan until they told me the seller is charging $200 for shipping to the agent in japan, then you gotta add in the shipping from there to aus and ended up being something silly.

Why are they so cheap? Because it will cost you equal or more than the amount you're paying for the product to ship it to Australian shores buddy. I've snapped up little stuff like badges which were like 3000en (about 30 Aussie dollars) and then by the time I receive them I've paid $60 Australian...

even if it did cost double including shipping..it still is only around 700 mark for the whole kit..bumpers..skirts..where do you get kits of that price in here? if you know tell me ..cuz i dont wana spend too much on these stuffs..thanks

If it sounds like a good buy, go for it! There will be a ~9 week wait on those parts to arrive once they've left Japan. So how long are you willing to wait?

haha I guess shipping from Japan is for you! Worse thing I could imagine would be that the kit is as shit or worse than the quality here. All that wait for nothing. Like some people say, "You get what you pay for."

Let us know how much it really costs though. Would be quite interested for future.
