found this. anyone used this guy before?
anyway, for the price it sounds pretty good. i am only after the rear bar, dont wanna buy the whole kit, so if someone wanted the front bar and skirts (preferably from adelaide or SA) it would work out sweet.
Cheers.

"We are able to supply kits or individual pieces including front bars, side skirts, rear bars, fenders, bonnets and spoilers for many Japanese built Vehicles. Simply check out our ebay store for our full invitory, and don't forget to check out our "about me" page."

Oh and i dont think Peter will like this, so expect it to be deleted.

Also notice the gap between the side skirt and door area, is this the same with all vertex side skirts?

Adam, nearly all of the Vertex sideskirts I have seen do have that gap.
My car didn't have it though, but I purchased it like that so I don't know what the previous owner may have done to cover it up.

I was surprised how much the flexi kits actually flex, I thought it'd only flex a small bit but you could twist it about halfway without breaking

Thanks Vinh. Also Tim are Flexi kits better than fiberglass kits as they wont crack in the event of a slight knock. Is is common for them to sag and do they look the same as normal kits once installed?

Sorry i dont know much about this kind of kit and am trying to decide which one to purchase in the future. Thanks

HA, there it is!!! That's the bonnet vent that I have, so to everyone that wanted to see it... Maybe I should start making them out of flexy resin, I know of at least 3 places in Adelaide that sell the stuff (ssssssssssh, trade secrets)
