#54286, "High quality body kits website"


          

I have been looking around on this site for the past year and noticed everyone talking about how body kits are very cheap, poorly made, and subject to breaking and cracking very easy. A friend of mine is starting to make body kit replicas and custom kits that are made of high quality fiberglass which is very strong and also about a 1\4 inch thick. He just opened a shop and is going to start a website within the next couple of months. I just thought I would let everyone know because it is hard to find a High quality,strong body kit anymore. He just made me one and I will tell you that this kit is stronger then even the old school kits. He said he will be making replica body kits, custom body kits (for most cars, replica fenders, custom fenders, carbon fiber hoods, and a bunch of other custom parts. The prices of the replica kits run about $400 (eclipse, civic) to $1000 (supra, lexus), custom kits range from $500-$1500. I thought everyone would be interested so please let me here some feedback and I will post his website as soon as it is up and running emoji

It is the real thing but I is the same style as say the blitz or the agressor kits. The reason that I say replica is because there is already a kit out there that looks like it.

So lets say you make replica of the Bomex ground effect....I would still buy the original...the Orginals will always fit better

Examples

Bomex
Rudora


Not
BMX
Rdora
Arodora
Blits
Blitz

Ok not to be ignorant or anything but you must not know much about body kits because when you go to the internet and ebay most of them are all replica's. Only some companies actually go to Blitz,etc.. and buy them direct. Everything else out there is a replica. The reason why I am telling everyone about this guy is because he make his kits easily fitable and very strong. When he made my kit it fit with no custom molding only drilling holes because they are not predrilled.

even ViS makes replica bodykits now, Usually companies only produce one of their own original kit, then make knock off kits and sell those.
