Yeah my best friend just got back from a snow boarding trip in BC and he was talking about that how he almost felt like he was off raod the whole time becuase the roads were so nasty and we actually had that exact convo about how I would go insane if I lived up there with my car as low to the ground as it is.

shyt, i dunno if this is out of desperation, or that i've been looking at it for so long..... .....but the Kaminari kit is acutally starting to look pretty nice....

i just wish it was a bit wider and if the bumper acutally sticks out more, i dont like the fact the lights above are sticking out too much, if u know what i mean, i like bumpers where it actually bumps out furhter than the light,.

Dinan- Yes, those bumpers seem to look a little thin to me, but i'm still wondering about how the website says kits are made in HPP and then come in fiberglass like some of these guys are saying... I just want to know if i can pay 8 or 9 hundred dollars and get an HPP kit?

I am thinking the Exact same thing... Uraniums car looks real tight w/ that bumper.. You can get the Kaminari kit real nice and easy for 800 shipped in about 2 weeks from Concept Auto Creations. That seems to be the safest thing to do at this point, unless you want to wait till summer... and even then, who knows..

if they haven't shipped it yet i say go for it, and email dinan or someone. but u gotta expect to pay double or more than what ur paying now....

i'd get polyurethane if i were u. its the best quality there is out there in this industry. its like rubbery plastic. its better than HPP for sure. but HPP is from what i hear way better than fiberglass, so if ur willing to pay the $bling$bling$ i say go for the polyurethane FOR SURE.

note: fiberglass chips and shyt

but polyurethane doesn't, it may scrape and maybe crack, depending on the extent of the damage, but if its gonna crack on the polyurethane, the fiberglass would be destroyed.

hmm....i coulda sworn i saw their website that u can get polyurethane or urethane for like 1800$, the reg. fiberglass one was like 750-850$.

i guess they updated it and HPP took over. sorry. but it wouldn't hurt to ask 'em.

Depends On Stock

Hello Sir.

Our Kit prices are based on Material.

When it is price at US$ 1200 + Shipping

When the prices at around US$ 850 it is on fibreglass and that means HPP stocks are over.

A kit on HPP will cost US$ 1200 + Shipping

We manufacture on Special Order.


regards

Sharkracing

Hello Sir we only provided to Sharkracing 1 container of thin kits,

And that was Last Year June. All the kits provided after that are very strong.

If you ordered a GT kit from Sharkracing it will be on HPP plastics and if you ordered a Apex kit it will be on Fibreglass. Pls see for yourself once you get the kit sir that it is very strong.

All kits supplied to Sharkracing is Very Strong. The Sharkracinf container is on the way to USA. Attached are pics of the container just before leaving to Sri Lanka Port.
