There are a few threads about their products. I have emailed them a few times about shipping to the USA and they never respond.

This is the only person I know of on 8club that has purchased anything from them. He did the R3 front bumper as well.

Ive contacted him as well. It breaks down to this:

Shipping is 750 by boat, 1500 by air. We would need a group buy to make the products even half worth buying.

You can get roughly 4 or 5 fronts and sides in a box, as, much like here, the size of the box it would have to go into is too large, and weight isnt even close to a factor.

Find another 4 people, and it would be worth it.

That shipping is a complete joke. Did they say $750 USD or in their currency?

Huge difference when you know you are buying top quality product from Japan than a replica kit with unknown quality.

Absolutely, to say that the AutoExe hood had OE fitment out of the box is no exaggeration
