Hey, I just recently bought a fibreglass bodykit off this website called vivagarage. Just wondering if anyone has bought one of there kits before and how well they line up. I also got quoted $2000 to fit and spray the kit (front bumper, rear bumper, two side skirts) Is this a reasonable quote??

I paid 900 for mine painted and fitted.

had it done in Wynnum. Not gonna advertise the guys business cause he cut the diffuser off my $550 rear bar

But maybe that comes under the philosophy "you get what you pay for"

hopefully your kit fits of the bat! i doubt it though.

we spent hours re-fitting twisted pieces, so if you could do any of that im sure it would dramatically reduce the cost if you can take it to them ready to go.

good luck :P

I bought a rear bar and side skirts from Viva for my stagea.

Took me about 40 hours to make the rear bar fit. Had to be cut into 3 peices.

Both side skirts had to be lengthened as well.

Good luck

40 hours?? did i read that right? lol that's insane! yea viva garage is the only place I could find that sold the full kit for a 4-door r33 so I'm hoping it doesn't involve too much work otherwise i'm not gonna be too happy. and yea this is the first quote I've gotten so far. The place that quoted me was 'auto collision repairs' at seventeen mile rocks..the first place I've been to that actualy gave me a quote lol

Smick panel and paint on the gold coast are doing my veilside front bar, side skirts, and rear pods for $650 painted and fitted. and I think hes doing my grill for free

Earlier in the year I got a TR bar off carmate and it wouldnt bend in enough to fit flush so it cracked and had to be repaired and they have been ignoring all my emails. Hows that for customer service.

i payed just under $15,000 for a kit and to bare metal respray. but thats with custom molded guards and like i said to bare metal.

at the end of the day, you get what you pay for and when it comes to paint, every mofo will pick it like they know every thing about paint and have bought the best of the best.

my advice, decide what sorta quality you want and then decide if thats an acceptable price.

with paint. you get what you pay for. hope this helps.

    • Is the 650rpm idle on the rb25det neo for stock cars only? I've never had my car before and after tuning it to idle at 650rpm when cold. Always idle's cold around 1100rpm, and then drops to about 900-950rpm. I've heard the r33 gtst's idle there.

    • Hi all, I’m currently running a str pipe hi low hks exhaust and downpipe. Was wondering if I change out muffler to a titanium one will it change the sound of the exhaust? Plus I have always liked the look of the titanium pipes … anyone have recommendations to one?    side note already have titanium intake pipes. 
    • I looked up my other car that is a R33 GTST series 1.5. Anyone able to confirm what a Aero Form Bumper is?     (1G) 2 Door Coupe; (2GK + 11V) RB25DET; (4B) 2WD HICAS; (7F) 5 Speed Manual; (14G) Super Fine Hard Coat; (15U) Large Rear Spoiler + Aero Form Bumper + Rear Wiper (Aero Selection)
    • Ha ha, all good! I've almost caved in and realised I'm buying one.  I know myself well enough by now that I will start chasing ADHD butterflies half way through building it and not finish it so I'm better off spending the extra money buying one instead of making one just so I can get into straight away.  I would very much enjoy making one as fabrication is probably a strength and definitely a passion but I don't want that to be at the detriment to the car I'm ultimately building it for! There's some pretty good ones around for ~$1100 at the moment so I think I'll just go that way.  At the end I sell it or as mentioned, get another project to make further use of it! Thanks gents.
