All our aerodynamic are manufactured with FRP mixed with PU components(to allow flexibilty and certain level of bending). Due to the material used in production, the body kits will not be a direct bolt-on. These body kits may require prepping, sanding, shaving, filling gaps, or other extensive body work and touch-ups. However, we do have a professional spray painter workshop with our kit's experience to perform installation and body kit spray painting to ensure the best results possible.

This is our own website, we also have customers overseas, which sees to the reason why we have other makes of cars not available locally.

Normally not alot of extensive work has to be done, however I pointed it out just in case people "assume" its a direct bolt-on and spraying of kit. Originals kits are simpler to install, but it comes with a costly tag

yes, it may be costly to buy originals, but the labour is a breeze. even me n you can bolt ourselves.

buying a replica, the labour to make it fit ur car is a killer. U may end up spending even more on the labour compared to buying original kit. WE ALL KNOW cos we have seen replicas kit with our own eyes on our club members' RX8s. We noe the standard, we noe the quality. Even the best body and paint shop cannot deliver an immaculate job.

When I bought my bodykit, how come I didn't have to do "prepping, sanding, shaving, filling gaps, or other extensive body work and touch-ups". I don't understand... I guess I am not very good with cars.. I just asked the shop to do order it and fit it for me. When the parts arrived, they show it to me and they immediately put it on while I waited. I don't know...Call me impatient.

Let consumer decide.

Cos not everyone wish to pay $3000-$8000 for a bodykit.

And for those willing to Spend money they would not want a imprefect bodykit .

Its not up to us to decide what is good for ourselves is also good for others.
No point "flighting" over it.

Be Cool.... :D

Hi!

Yes we have the carbon bonnet, boot and also the doors..

Sorry about the pics in my website as its just launched..will update the pics asap..

Just to clarify a few issues that had been raised:
The bodykits Im selling are replicas, and with replicas, there is always a certain degree of imperfection. However these imperfections are definitely not extreme, and I may say so that they are relatively minor.

As for any bodykit's installation and spraying, certain prepping needs to be done to achieve the best effect. My kits are definitely presentable enough and I welcome all who are interested to view the kit as ready stock is available.

cheers!
