Sinista32 Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 Hmmm! - I saw one advertised on another site. I'll ask a mate BrB.. TRY the SDU forum - Skylines Down Under (I think $4K, cost around $7k) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/60836-r32-wide-body-kit/#findComment-1152265 Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkymonkey Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 yeah I have the BN Sports widebody kit. I advertised it for sale cos I needed the cash. everyone likes the kit, but not its cost though. I asked $2500 for it, which is what it costs for an original BN Sports 9 piece widebody kit (front bumper, rear bumper, sideskirts, rear pumped fenders, front pumped fenders and fuel flap). Some guy offered to copy it and give me the original back along with 2 copies, but then he dissapeared off the face of the earth, he said he was with Jetspeed, so when I rang jetspeed they said they weren't too keen to make a widebody mould. I asked one of my mates how much the mould would make as he took moulds of my vertex ket and he said it'd be about 8k. So I gave up on the whole making copies thing and decided that I'll just put it on my car be the only one in Australia with the kit, so everyone can kiss my black ass Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/60836-r32-wide-body-kit/#findComment-1152356 Share on other sites More sharing options...

wreckedhead Posted January 10, 2005 Author Share Posted January 10, 2005 where did you get it for 1800 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/60836-r32-wide-body-kit/#findComment-1152415 Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkymonkey Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 the kit actually cost me 100,000yen plus shipping, roughly it came to just under $1700 landed. it retails for about $2500. I'm not too interested in selling it now as I don't need the cash anymore. I don't mind someone getting copies of it made though, as long as I get something out of it, my original is returned undamaged and the kit is copied in melbourne. I haven't mounted or painted the kit yet as I'm waiting to finish the engine mods to the car before I get started on the body.

wreckedhead Posted January 10, 2005 Author Share Posted January 10, 2005 i wouldnt mind if you could make a copy and ill pay you what it costs, other option is to ship it to me in sydney and ill make a copy of t here, i have mates who do bodykits.( costs to much to start from scrath) are you sure you wont take a reasnable offer for it Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/60836-r32-wide-body-kit/#findComment-1152478 Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkymonkey Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 yeah I'm sure I don't wanna sell it. I don't mind the kit being copied as long as it stays in melbourne (last time I sent off a vertex kit to be copied to QLD and that was a logistical nightmare... by the time I got the kit back every tom dick n harry and their pet goldfish had one) and also the kit has to be returned undamaged. If you can organise that then we can discuss a deal for me supplying the original. If not I do container runs from japan almost every month. I can get you an original from BN Sports. I also have a trade account with URAS, so if you want any of their kits I can hook you up with a cheaper deal.

funkymonkey Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 i dunno, I don't think you can. I haven't fitted it to my car yet, so I can't tell you for sure. The rear fender for example only comes halfway down over the original guard, the rest is part of the sideskirt, so I'd say you'd need at least 6 of the pieces. The front bumper I guess you could bog and blend into the wider guard. Rear bumper forms part of the rear guard as well, so that might be a lil trickier.

funkymonkey Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 There's also a "garage V" (i think that's what its called... this was the one I wanted originally... its the one in the "GTR Story" DVD) widebody kit, a veilside widebody kit and a kakimoto widebody kit. Although I think the latter 2 are for GTR's only. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/60836-r32-wide-body-kit/#findComment-1154111 Share on other sites More sharing options...

aKTiVE Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 anyone know where to buy one ive been racking my brain for days, thanks in advance We get all our kits done by Ken Streeter. He makes fibreglass kits for most imports, they are excellent in quality. The main reason we go to him is that his kits have a lot of flex... so when/if you hit/touch anything, the kit is more likely to bounce/flex rather than snap. He gave us a demonstration by taking a sideskirt for a 180sx, and bending it over itself. I was impressed =) Details As Follows: Streeter By Streeter Un 1/ 79 Centenary Pl Logan Village 4207 (07) 5546 3033 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/60836-r32-wide-body-kit/#findComment-1155173 Share on other sites More sharing options...
