Custom Body Kit GD Info...

ok I want this to happen I got info from one company, Im talking to another one and ill get that info up here soon.
ok first company.

10 orders
$675.00
$130.00 shipping

once all the money is sent in 5-7 weeks before
the kit is shipped. The kit can be made however we want it to look like(most likely skyline style.)
it will be a complete kit, with bumper replacements.
we will need one car in walnut CA 91788 to donate there car for 3-4 weeks and they will get a free kit(installed, mabey painted)

so how many people can we count on? if your not sure or you know you wont be able to come up with the money then please dont commit and ruin it for the rest of us.

i m very interested, let everybody know that this is gonna be a skyline style kit. What model R33/R34? Is it cash only or can we use plastic for it. come on people if you want to have a max that is like skyline save all your pennies because we all know we can't have a skyline.

I am down to... I have to take my car into the shop on Wednesday and depending on if I have to replace the VTCs now or can wait for a few weeks will decide if I can commit to this now, or in less then two weeks on Friday April 26, 2002.

Call me at (859) 224-9551 if anything drastic changes. You are also talking about the Skyline R33 front and rear right?

actually

the kit is fiber glass I think, and 675, for a custom fiber glass isnt too bad, and I was thinking r34

this is what maxximum tuning's kit for the 4th gens looks like, it will probably be something like this but a little less drastic.

I'm all for being the test dummy, as long as the finished product looks better than the one the 4th gen guys are getting. I wouldn't want my car to look like an insect. But a little less drastic and a little more like a GT-R sounds great! If we do this, anyone want to buy my WW kit??? It's only been on for a week!!!

Considering how long it will take to get this together (CFhood as my example) I will start putting away some money now. If i have it by the time the deal is rolling then i will be more than happy to get a new kit for my car. I would just like to see some pics asap. Photoshopped or whatever.

ok

since I have a shop after we get the first ten it will probably be sold only through me, I just talked to the first company and he said there doing a kit for 5th and 4th gens,and he wont be able to start ours untill the end of june. so I called PJ at maxximum tuning and see who he went with, he was going to go through the first guy but then chose someone in brooklyn, which will be better, so I can mabey use my car as the test car, and use the money I would spend on the kit to front the money for one so we only will need nine people.

I just called another guy he recomended and he is going to call me back soon. so once i talk to him ill get the details.

I would be really intersted. Of course depending on how the kit comes out. My Brother is going to inherit my fathers GXE. So as gift I would give him the kit. What happens if we do not get the 10 could a deal be worked out with what we have? This might have been already addressed however, when will we be able to see a prototype?

Erubuni in Brooklyn ??? makes custom ground effects kits and molds them to the car/paints them. The cost is like $2K, though... and it's "shogun style" I personally would rather have the Skyline style...

Nismo89 this has been bothering me for a while, you would not have happen to be in Brooklyn near the Linden Theater about 3 months ago would you have. There was a car just like yours parked in drive way about a block from the theater I literally circled the block to get a better look.

Did PJ tell you about his plans for a R33 kit for the 3rd gen? I personally think an R-33 kit would look more fitting for a 3rd gen, leave the R-34 to the 4th gens. But maybe you and PJ can work togeather on that R-33 kit, cause i know he's got his hands busy right now with the 4th gens, so maybe you can do the grunt of the work and he could help or something.

Count me in. Please keep me updated. I will volunteer my car but if not, I think $650 is a reasonable price for a whole body kit.

I am definately interested! When are you going to definately going to start getting them made I need a date so I can have the money, because if it is not for a month I am going to do my VTCs. I am getting my timing chains, guides, tensioners, serpentine belts, waterpump all replaced on friday. I also am getting a compression check so I need to know if I am going to need to have the money by the first of may or not.

Thanks,

$650 is a GREAT price for full bumper replacements, even if it is fiberglass...

Thanks for the 411 and I am definately in, if you need a little deposit to confirm this say $100-$200 let me know and I can send it to you using paypal.

Hope to see everyone at the INDYMAX2002 meet if I can get my *** up there I will as I work 3rd shift, but it would be a shame since I only live in Lexington 180 miles from INDY.

im all up for the new kit, but it really depends on how this looks when its done. im planning on getting a body kit this summer and was gonna go for the stillen one. i do like the fact that the ones your having made are full bumper replacements. i just think that one you posted is too agressive looking for a max. if it was tamed down a bit it would look alot cooler.
