i want to buy a gp sports kit, but i dont want a fake or crappy one.

i know i can buy one on rakuten from gpsports
Rakuten: [GP SPORTS] FC3S RX-7 Furue alloKIT G-FOUR

but the other problem is shipping, tenso only ships ems and a kit is way to big for ems(right?) im sure some of you have done it before, so how?

 

are you willing to spend about 2 grand on just shipping alone? if not just get a knockoff

 

^^^

yes

 

Rhdjapan.com

 

I spent 150 bucks on my gp kit and it looked just as good as the real one but hey It's your money boss lol

 

where did you spend $150 on a gp bumper? My friend hit my car and is paying for a new one. Cheapest i found was $270 shipped for a gp front bumper.

 

No I got the hole kit for 150 I just pieced it together Craig's list and on the forums

 

just dont want it to end up being huge amounts of wort to make it fit, and then have it look wavy. from what i understand the real ones fit well right off the bat.

sure id like to save money, who wouldnt? but more so i want it too look good, after all, isnt that why we kit our cars to begin with?

 

I did it to look lower lol but yea I get you....good luck on your search...

 

well thats some serious dedication. i considered gettin a legit bn sports kit when i first got my car but decided 4k on a kit wasnt exactly in my budget for now. i don't think rhdjapan has any gp sports kit but they do have some other nice ones on there (Uras, Foresight, RE-A, Tamon).

 

i emailed rhdjapan and asked them about getting the kit and this is the responce i got.

"Hello,

Thank you for contacting RHDJapan! Are these in our site already? dding
to the shopping cart will give you the shipped total. If they are a
bunch of aero parts we could do a test order to see if there is anything
better on consolidated shipping we can do."


i replyed telling them no its not on there site but the kit is the g-four kit for the fc on gpsports.co.jp and asked if they would be able to give me a rough price on getting one as gpsports does not ship international.

so well see.


@p0tat0s

ya i was thinking about the bn, i do really like it but it is alot more and i think the gp kit just flows better. though to be honest if they were the same price id probably chose it over gp.

 

if you like the style of the bn check out the uras kit on rhdjapan since it has a bit of a similar style and i believe it was cheaper than the gp sports

Uras Type 4 Full Aero Body Kit FC3S

 

no i like the bn for the ftp cutout, like on the foresight but i dont like that the foresight kit makes the openings smaller and goes further back, which would just make it more work because i would want to get rid of that.

i got a quote from them they said i can probably have it shipped to ontario for $2600 so thats not too bad.

 

^you could buy a few knock off kits for that price. And considering im going on my 4th fiberglass front bumper (only 1 time was my fault) Id never pay that much for a kit unless it came with over fenders and ect.

 

well then who would you recomend buying the knock off from? i havent heard anything good about any one in particular. and remember that a real kit should be alot more durable than a knock off.

 

Regardless if you hit something or someone else hits you its still game over. I got from extreme dimensions before and just had a friend order me another one from them as of today. Not like dirt cheap but still wayyyy cheaper than $2600. Fitment has been OKAY, my fenders are 2 different fenders welded together (yeah its a long stupid story). I'll stick with my shitty *** knocks offs because i daily my 7 and the roads in NY are terrible/hilly. I can understand if your dead set on going legit if your not in my situation and willing to drop the money on it. Last bumper i had fitment was nearly perfect, i hope my new one is as well. Good luck dude!

 

through more research iv heard that version select kits are of good quality, they are made of frp like shine autos stuff. so price pending i may go with them for the gp kit.

 

I have one of if not the first authentic GP Sports kits ever shipped to north America currently on my car. I would be up for a heads up trade on a set of S5 bumpers, side skits and moldings if anyone's interested.

 

Try VIS racing. I have a kit from them and they're pretty durable. My car is fairly low and it was lasted (besides losing a sideskirt).

 

Buddy maned up and bought me a new bumper through extreme dimensions. It arrived the day after x-mas.

 

how is the fitment? they seem decent.

iv been in contact with version select and they told be the eta for stock on their gp kit was 6-8 weeks and that was dec 12. havent said anything about a price though.

 

My VIS kit fit great.

 

It looks like it has a pretty hefty wave in the main front opening.

 

lol @ spending $2600 on a gp kit...

 

I have 3 of these in my possession now, all of them have some kind on wave.
