Thanks, guys.
Instead of keeping all the info I have found to myself, I prefer sharing it with all of you.

Some pics of mix and match kits.

Jimmy, I don't have the pics of its side profile, the style of the front lip is almost identical to the 02-05 one. The grill for 06+ is new design.

I havn't seen these on Blitz Japan's web site yet.
The price should be the same with the one they made for UZZ40.
Also, Blitz will have a new exhaust sys for SC430 according to their web site.
Not sure if it is the one shown in the pics.

It depends on the material.
The fiberglass one is $680 while the carbonfiber one is $1080.
There is one for sale at a big discount price ($250?) on the classifieds.
I think it is a very good deal, but it is not for ur 06.

The new Blitz exhaust is a little cheaper than the current one.
I had the Blitz exhaust for only 8 days. Sold it to another guy b/c I don't like the tips.
I just ordered Tom's exhaust directly from Japan yesterday. should receive it next week.

Thx for the info about the Blitz lip. Yeah, I saw that one for sale. Too bad it's not for an 06' since I would just paint it anyway.

I wonder why it's cheaper then the current one. Is the current one going to be discontnued? I wish I knew u had it for sale...doh! You don't like rolled tips? Wow, you are straight balling to do airfreight from Japan! Are you getting the quad-tips version? When you're bored of the Tom's, please keep me in mind. I'm going to Htown in March sometime. Would like to meet you & your JDM-P-I-M-P sc430.

Guys

Just checked Blitz Japan's web site.
http://www.blitz.co.jp/new-product/ex-system.pdf

The current Blize exhaust for sc430 is Realize-TTR and the new one is called Nur-DT.
I was incorrect to say it would be a little cheaper than Relize-TTR since Blitz hasn't priced it yet.
I thought it is a little cheaper b/c the the price I saw is for IS/GS350.
Nur-DT could be more expensive.

Sold my Blitz to a guy whose brother owns a local muffler shop, so it was no charge for labor.
Don't get me wrong tho, Blitz exhaust is very good-looking.
It is just I already have aftter-market tips that look quite similar to Blitz ones, so I prefer a different look.

I didn't order the Tom's quad exhaust for the obvious reason ( don't have the Tom's $1000+ rear bumper to fit it). haha
