Body Kit

[marcair]

Does any have info re obtaining same or similar front spoiler and side rails as shown?

What is the color code for yellow?

Sidenote: last week, from a can of aerosol styrofoam, I carved a big boat anchor. After paining it to look old and abused, I attached some plastic chain links. So now and then, parked in the neighborhood, I throw the anchor out for laughs.

the kit in the picture i think mathis has mentioned before - only available through the japhoo auctions so it might be tricky to get. :(
most specialist importers over here seem able to get hold of the bits once they look into it, i guess its just a case of finding one stateside that can work out a reasonable price for you and is happy to do a bit of research?

I have been interested in the hondatwincam (feels) bodykit for ages now, but getting it to the UK just seems impossible for even close to a reasonable price, never mind finding someone reliable to be able to sort it out for me, does anyone have any ideas at all as to how this would be possible?

I had my cozylights body kit imported by New Era Parts, they were fantastic.

hi scott
as WL said it is possible - i have a full feels kit on the way from japan right now. Im using Hyeline in wales - their prices were really good compared to some of the quotes i received and so far their service has been great and very friendly.

Am I converting the Yen correctly? I typically see front covers and side rails at approx. $400 and $400. The original lines look better and better.

Also, I find these sport shocks at $1000. Amazing.

TADO, if you dont mind me asking, how much are you getting the feels kit for inc delivery?

hi scott
ill drop you a pm :)

Again thanks for the information offered. I contacted a local importer and purchased a Cross 3-piece kit consisting of a frt spoiler, sides and rear bumber as shown in the pic for $1250. Sorry thing is the wait for delivery. Like daily seeing a present under the Xmas tree for 3 months. I will have to bond thin strips of stainless steel on the lower surfaces of the items to protect against damage due to out lousy speed bumps.

hi marcair
that should look really nice - the kit looks very similar to the one in the original pic as well! i understand about the long wait - my car has been off the road almost 7 months now - i have all the new stuff piling up in the lounge which my girlfriend is extremely happy about as you can imagine... :suicide:

Additionally, I found a local importer that has been sitting on a set of used aftermarket 15" rims & tires (90% tread) for the Beat for a while considering the qty of Beats in the neighborhood. I snapped 'em up. They are a 2 piece polished ring w/ powder coated 5 spokes. Right now they are disassembled getting polished and new powder coating the yellow body color. They are of lesser height than my current 185/14 setup and the offset is such that I will not rub the well anymore in extreme wheel turn. I may have them back late this week. I'll post pics.

Yes, I'm keeping my current 14" set as I believe the ride may be harsh on the 15" set.

[TADO]

that sounds great! look forward to seeing the pics :)

RE Mags: Any 15" will be fine for the Beat. Specs r PCD 4X100 offset rear is 45 Front 35, so if you get any with a 40 you use a thin shim to balance out. I also returned the angled look of the car by beefing the tyre sizes not the odd rims, there's a pic somewhere....my hpage or in the posts I think, too easy. In fact you guys in the UK have better choice than in Japan for those.

The 15" are on hold. After closer look, 1 rim was different. They were Work Meister .... I think
