| Hi I was talking to the Guys from DMD The Image here in Brisbane and their BN Sports Body Kit looks awesome. Apparently directly from Japan and fits real well and they fit it. What i would like to know is has anyone had experience or heard of anything good or bad about them? And also has anyone heard anything about the BN Sports kit??? Thanks guys Nath |

| I have a mate with a full DMD copied kit for his GTR. Pricey but it looks quite good. No gaps and it fits well. |

| ive got this kit and my car and it looks great. it alittle old now and could do with a freshen up as it has a few stress cracks in the front bar from sitting low and catching the odd gutter but overall its a great kit. |

| Looks like a Vertex kit with B&N skirts and rear bar to me. |

| ^ Exactly what I thought - I thought you had uploaded a photo of a Vertex kit by mistake. |

| the only real difference between the b&n front and the vertex is around the fog light area. other than that they are pretty much the same. |

| nah its full bn kit. the sides of the front bar are more sharper. you can see it better by the behind shot see how triangular the bottom bit is. the vertex is more rounder at the bottom and doesnt stick out as much |

| i wouldnt mind a BN kit, do they come with twin cutouts on the rear bar for 2 mufflers? are the fitment on these 100% like the genuine vertex kits? and where can i get one from, how much? |

| try this one. http://www.dmdtheimage.com/body_kits//toyota/blister.htm they have them here in brissy.like any kit they sometimes need alittle fitting to get the 100%. mine has abit of a gap where the bonnet meets the kits and under the front lights just a touch. other than that its prety good. |

It's a copy kit so God knows what the original kit was before they made their copy. Warren, go genuine Vertex. These fibreglass kits won't be anywhere near the quality of a genuine Vertex kit mate. I'd definitely stick to that if I was in your shoes. |

| dmd would be a copy of a bn sports kit. there are so many copies. some are ok... most are complete and utter not worth the time even looking at them. if you want a genuine vertex front bar talk with masato hara on here or visit www.vertex-aus.com i spent the extra on a genuine kit and never looked back. nothing on my kit had to be modified. just painted and put on. this is the fitment of a genuine bar. |

| id prefer a genuine vertex over a genuine bn but i cannot get in contact with masato, i have sent him countless emails, pm's and facebook messages but no response. i was under the impression he no longer did vertex stuff |

| So are you guys saying that ever vertex kits will bolt straight on and need adjustment to fit 100% every time? I find that highly unlikely as no 2 cars are exacly the same in my experience. I personally like the look of the BN kit better than the vertex anyway.if you get a copy kit then spend the left over cash you saved on buying the original vertex kit on getting the bn kit fitted correctly it would look just as good as the vertex. In my opinion . |
