i am looking for a particular body kit for a GS



does the owner of this car post here? and what kind of kit is this?

 

thats the "Explosion" Kit... pretty easy to get now a days with a plethora of Knock-offs available... Theres actually a kit for sale in the Classifieds...

 

so there is not an original Japanese kit for this

not really into knock offs

 

the original JDM explosion is very hard to get, pm manaray about it

 

the original Explosion Kit is out there... its not cheap however.. I believe in the upwards of 2000.00 or so? Theres a few importers that should be able to pick up that kit for you... also I am not too sure on stocking of the authentic Explosion kit. I've had to wait nearly 4 months for the body kit that I ordered... but its all good.. well worth the wait

rominl... I got my tracking number... Weds is going to be the day

 

yeah, definitely in the 2k range for explosion. you can also pm supratrd and see what he can do about it. don't get knock offs, you are driving a lexus.

dude, tracking number! man, it's such a tease!

 

geez, i read it as you are getting Weds. i've been thinking about those again lately...

and i recall the real kit going for $2500-$3000. hurts even more now, doesn't it, folks?

 

that's why i still can't justify about getting one

 

Well, one thing about the authentic kits are the fitments are near flawless. Usually (not always the case) with knockoffs the fitment is so terrible that you end up paying near the price of an authentic kit just to have the knockoff kit fit perfectly... I've seen it so much in the Honda world.

As for Weds? I meant Wednesday... thats the day the body kit I have ordered comes in after, hmm lets see, 4 1/2 months of waiting??? long long wait, but hopefully, well worth it

 

That is the kit on my car. Pro Car parts .com out of Cal. Paid a $1000 for it after shipping. Rocks chips
are killing me up front. You'll lose your emblims in the back because of the slant on the wing I had
to get mine air brushed on.

 

congrats john...i can't wait to see ur kit. i know how u feel with the waiting game...it seems like that's all i do with my car. r u gonna make it to HIN in san mateo on the 5th of april?? i think i'm gonna try, but i feel like i have too much to do before then, so we'll see. send me some pics or ur ride when u get a chance.

 

hey Ryan,

I seriously doubt I will be at HIN... the rims never came

Plus, its like 2 weeks away and the kit will barely arrive this week? I don't want to rush the body shop. Remember my car got keyed at the last San Mateo car show. So I might as well take my time... especially with this kit.. LOL It was too damn expensive for something to go wrong... Why would you want to rush and add more? your car has always been ready... you have just been improving on it.. =) Did you get your seats in BTW? I really want to see that!

but damn, this kit better look as good in person... hahaha still havent seen it on another GS just yet.. just all the pics here on this board or in the Hyper Rev Aristo book...

laters

 

i just saw Manaray's body kit & i like that one a lot better

What do you guys think of the Wald "Executive" kit

 

for some reason, i like the falcon kit. maybe the pix trix me and the fact that my car's white too. i was almost gonna get it. but then i didn't. still like it a lot, but just one thing that's really the imperfection. the front and back of falcon kits dun have the chrome line, which makes it appear less "luxurious" and authentic....

 

if u all think that there's a kit renders a closer look to the falcon, please hit me up.

how about ab flug?
