Anyone buy body kits on ebay? If so, how are they, good fitments and such?

 

if your just talking about a lip or a spolier, then your ok....the fitment wont be too bad....

but if your talking about actual kits, you might as well just paypal me $400....cause your throwing away money

u might as well find a local shop for body kits or keep an eye out on the classifieds section. body kits on ebay may be cheap but they end up raping u on shipping.

 

NO NO NO
Waste of money. Cheap body kits, bad fitment, overcharge on shipping. By the time you get them, I guarandamntee you your body kit won't be in one piece. Either crack or break. If you want it so bad, buy from http://www.nopionline.com

 

Body kits are GAY. There just Rice. I hope you have your flame suit on.

anyways, how much are you looking to spend on ebay? im pretty sure the local shop could sell you a better condition kit for almost the same price. its better to be able check the condition of a kit before purchase. rather than be stuck with what you got over the internet. im sure the ebay seller will not take responsibility for any problems encountered during shipping. which means youre screwed if the kit cracks or chips etc.

 

Generally, most of the kits that come from ebay are junk. Def look into kits from companies like VIS.

I was planning on spending around 400 for a complete kit, if even possible, any ideas or places where I can get good deals online?

 

Nopionline.com and extreme dimensions are the two I know of. Also TwiztedOzone.com but they don't have many up on there site so you will have to call them to see if they can get one you want as they can get a lot. I would probably go with Twizted Ozone as I know the guy that runs it or my second choice would be nopi I haven't heard that much about ED only the link to them from Cardomain.

 

dont ruin your car with a body kit unless you really no what you are doing body work wise and painting its gonna look like **** crack and break and be held on 3 wood screws and even with expensive body kits that **** never fits right either
a friend of mine had countless hours putting his wide body and bumpers on and he worked at a body shop and it still looks like ****

aww thats cute Mr. black widow and lambo doors himself to the rescue. based on your username i hope you're not one of those emo kids who cries to himself every night because he thinks everyone hates him. you might want to check your grammar before you go critique others.

the one way to avoid any problems with cracking is to not buy a body kit at all and spend your money on something else. If you really wanna throw it away like that i will take the money off your hands.

If your heart is really set on getting a body kit i would recommend not molding the kit, because later on down the road when you want to get rid of the kit which you probably will, you will be able to just take it off and put your stock bumper back on.

 

im with FW, just paypal the money over this way, that way you still end up with nothing and someone somewhere is still happy.

 

guys seriously....stop making personal attacks....its one thing to give some useful/factual information, and then giving an opinion....but just posting insults has no place here...use a PM for that...if the kid likes a body kit, more power to him, hes just asking a simple question

just find a body shop / "import" shop and talk to them about it....not only will they be able to get you a quality kit, they'll be able to paint and install is properly, which regardless of how ugly it is, is essential for you to be happy with whatever kit you choose.....

the local shop around here charges about $350 for a full kit. and theyre pretty trust worthy. you can mix and match as well as evaluate the product before payment.

 

I just bought a body kit from ebay.. (415, thats with shipping) for my integra though. the fitment, is as with anything fiberglass require a little modification. it is suggested that you get profesional installation.
However my fitment was relatively close.. I have pictures if needed.

the average price for a fiber glass body kit is about $400 around here in southern california.. but theres always much cheaper places.

 

They are so cheap these days, you'll find one you like for sure within your alotted budget.

 

Yeah that price they quoted you seems high I am not a huge fan of fiberglass kits though.

 

Don't mess with ebay. Save your money and get a Urethane kit. Don't want to drop all that money on the kit and paint and then end up cracking it when you hit a pothole too hard

importfan.com = GTP

 

washington doesn't have as much aftermarket support as california

I don't see too many good looking accords with body kits for your gen, but I know there are a lot of H22a powered accords of that gen!

body kit: $400 at least. install: $500+? save your money for the swap and you can continue driving without having to crawl over speed bumps
