GP Sports body kit?

How much would you guys be willing to pay for this kit? I was just wondering, because if you're really interested, I could get them (I hear they're rare?). However, I'd have to know what the going price is. This would be for a brand new body kit.

I inquired about the kit about a year ago

and these are the prices i was given by the guys at garagefive.net in Vancouver BC Canada...


As far as I know, we are the only distrubutor for GP
Sports in Canada.
The kit is $3800 cdn after taxes.
Individual pieces are (no tax yet)
Front bumper $1065
Side steps $ 875
Rear bumper $ 935
Rear Spoiler $ 685


i think people like the kit more for the "show aspect of them but i have a hunch there wouldnt be too much of a market for them for street application. Especially at those prices. If you could get it for cheaper that might change

That's about 2900 USD, I could probably get it to most people for around 2400-2500USD+shipping, so more like 3200CAD+shipping.

front bumper is $1000? if people are willing to pay that, they'll probably get the refc2000 replica.

the only nice part of the gp kit is the front, $1000 is ridiculous for it, considering there's no light conversion.

Hmm, I see. Nevermind, then, because that's only a little more than I could have gone...oh well. I just thought people would pay more because it's supposed to be rare...or something.

If you're really desperate and for any strange reason want to buy it from me, I'll give you the 3-piece kit for 1850 and 4-piece for i guess ~2400. I dunno, you could probably get a better price if you shopped around.

Anyone interested in GP sports exhaust? 80mm piping, 115mm tip. I haven't been able to find it on any of those other sites. I'd price it at around 550-600 dollars.

My buddy has two FC kits coming in next month from Japan. i just got my GP kit on this weekend. It will be in the Endless booth at IAS, LA convention center. April 2-4, 2004. Come by and say hi.

If you PM me or stop by the show he'll offer special pricing on the kits if a deposit is placed. They will be here in one month like I said.

snub. buy the kit for your car, then sell replicas . I'd pay $800 plus shipping for a decent fitting GP replica.

Yeah, I know, those were the prices I had in mind, but then i realized the kit is readily available. Someone just told me that it was a rare kit.
