Where to shop for bodykits

[charliebrown]

Im after a bodykit for my integra. Is there any sites you guys recommend? (or shops in melb)
Ive looked at some usa sites but not too sure about the fitting as they're under "acura integra" and i dunno if USDM differs from AUDM

It comes unpainted (black ABS or Poly). You can then either get it painted, or leave it black. Up to the person who purchased it.

Lip kits etc. generally look better to most than bodykits, however it is preference. If you like bodykits go for your life, just remember that alot of people will not like it (but who cares right? It's your car!).

Only issue? When you try to sell it. You already have a GSI... You paid a pretty sum for a GSI, and you're already going to struggle to try to get anything near what you paid for it. If you bodykit it it will be worth less...

Lastly, most bodykits are fibreglass. From reading your posts (scraping and it's not even lowered), are you sure you want to get a bodykit? Instead of just a scrap, fibreglass will actually break (it doesn't flex like your ABS bumper). It's very brittle in that respect and much less durable.

BTW are you chinese?

Mugen front lip and Type R front lip can be bought on this site. Go marketplace > JDM Yard > should be a link saying Lip kits or something. They're about $130 I'm pretty sure. As above, its up to you to paint it or not, I think a lot of people prefer it to stay black, but when I get one I'll probably paint it.

androo: Nah i'm not chinese, what led you to ask that lol

act_gooner: since you've got a dc4 as well, you would be able to help me the jdmyard dc2 front lips are sure fit onto the dc4s yeah? just chuck the screws in and done. and also it's $149 if posted i think. i believe we have the same coloured car, dark blue?

[act_gooner]

Ummmm I'm pretty sure its the exact same fit, just make a post in the thread asking or pm the JDM Yard seller, can't remember his name, to be certain. Yeah, adriatic blue pearl, real nice color!
