Default purchasing bodykits

i am looking to purchase a bodykit but from my research it seems that only vip japanese sites seem to carry them.
anyone know of any domestic websites that carry bodykits or could order one from japan? other than www.l-tunedparts.com
i am looking to purchase the exiv ( http://www.exiv-concept.com/products/products_gs.html) kit
thanks in advance for your help

Wow... The bodykit looks beautiful! Love the Japanese VIP style!
But it costs more than 3k for the whole kit plus not inculding shipping yet!
Can't find the kit, but you might try here: http://www.japanparts.com/ contact them to see if they have the kit!

dunno...that site lists the full kit price at 400k yen...which is about 3500...

im guessing getting it shipped here will raise the price a whole lot more...you should hit up bulletproof and get an estimate.

I'll vouch for Carson Toyota as they've been one of the first vendors ever to support the VIP market several years ago. On top of their customer service and long time history with CL, why go anywhere else?

carson carries alot of parts and alot of cl members can vouch for them but from my research, they are not the most...what's the right word..."affordable"

i guess you pay for the convenience of having alot of parts in one place but please do some research and i'm sure you can find better deals for the same parts...just need a little patience and networking with fellow members =)
