Bringing in a body kit?

I think Jap spec has spoken about the Origin kit, which is the one you are pointing out in one of our previous posts.

Drop him a PM to find out the price...

If memory serves R20 000 - R25 000 excluding shipping and import duties. Poly - what what urathane bodykit - fancy plastic or something...

The sides look similar to the ones I have on my car now... Got them from Jerry at import parts - Fibreglass - about R2 800 for sides depending on exchange rate.

What about these kits?

Origin Stream line kit

I want this one!!!!!!!! 😮 😮 😮

Whats the price?

If the current exchange rate from the Rand to the US Dollar is still roughly 6.75 R to 1 USD then that particular kit would cost, without shipping, 5,454 R. Assuming you had it shipped to South Africa from the US. Assuming you buy the kit from Japan, without shipping the kit will run you 4,225.35 R

Other than that Origin Lab is a company based out of Japan. The kits are designed by, fellow drifter, Kazuya Bai. Kazuya Bai currently owns and operates Westco

@GoldenEagle - It's the shipping I'm worried about!

I hear yeah. Shipping even within the US is still relatively expensive. Considering the fact that the value of the US dollar is still falling things here are starting to cost more. A large number of the US population is living below the poverty level. As an example: Someone making 81 R an hour (12 US Dollars) still has trouble paying bills on time.

Tell me about it.

For anyone looking to buy a body kit from a US company Raceon know that you will have issues with the gaps when you mount the kit to your vehicle. Other companies to stay away from due to poor quality, Erebuni, and Importfan.

The company Version Select is known to have high quality body kits for less than what you would pay for authentic brand name body kits.
