BSM kit (japan)

Don't thank me, just:

Several board members were interested in the BSM front clip from japan.

After months of translating and searching, I finally found the link:

EDIT: OLD LINK REMOVED

The entire kit runs $2,000

They also make this SWEEEEET kit for the C4 Vette:

Oh wow! I was expecting a completly different body kit when you said "Japan". That front bumper looks pretty good, IMO. That's a STEEEEEEEP price though!

The kit I was expecting was something else, and looks weirder than that one.

Cool, not one for body kits though, I think Camaros look clean with just a good set of wheels and a drop.

It's a pretty cool kit, not for me tho

Thats a good find!

I too did a search a while back for Japanese kits and was able to find this one...

http://www.topspeed.gr.jp/index2/camaro/camaro.html

:: The price of the TYPE II kit is about 1,300 bucks::

AERO KIT TYPE II is the one that a lot of people seemed to like. Only difference between that and the pic that most everyone else saw is the hood inserts that were molded on. But I believe you can pick them up for like 75 bucks each and they're held on with tape??

BTW... If anyone actually buys a kit from one of those websites let me know! I'm interested in the steps you took to get it shipped over here. I'm sure the people that run that company can speak english. Who knows, one day I may actually try giving them a call

Does anyone like the spoiler on those cars? The second link with the red AND white camaro has the same wing (maybe double stacked). I actually like the wing, how it looks on the white camaro...what is your thoughts?

I think it'd look pretty cool on your ride. I've been checking up on the progress of your car since you've signed up for the boards. I'm about an hour south of Roanoke... I lived there between '82 and '87 when I was a lil kid Does your car club still meet up pretty often? I wouldn't mind making my way up there sometime or another to hang out with some fellow F-body guys and check out some the other sweet rides in your club.

Hit me up with an e-mail sometime if you'd like.

For those that haven't really been following the developments on the overseas bodykits, here are some better pictures of the front clip:

Obviously, this kit looks like *** without some larger aftermarket rims...

That wing looks identical to the Wings west Commando wing, and it sells for around 549 unless you can find a used one like I did. If you want to see it on a white camaro, do a search for Crakhedmat, or something like that. He has one on his, as well as numerous one in Brents appearance guide. Hope this helps you out.

I want that front bumper....BAD. The side skirts and rear bumper I don't care about really, I could just mix and match. I wonder if they would sell just the front part???

Guys, keep in mind this is a San Diego warehouse dealing with overseas imports/exports, not your typical performance shop

IF you dont get a response you could try the headquarters in the UK at:

Here is the main page:

Way to go pure energy! We have been trying to figure out how to get this kit for years now and you finally found the answer other than taking an 8 hour plane trip.
