Not sure if its these body kits have been posted before, I couldn't find them in search so I'm assuming they haven't been! Personally I think these kits are so much more affordable in comparison to PISA's front bumpers. Haven't found anything that tops the looks of the Mad-Arch wide-body yet though..
You know, I'm not a big fan of these bulky styled body kits, but the last one looks really nice all together. If they had the grey part on the sides painted red, thatd be a really beautiful car.

How good can the bumper be for less then $200? I mean, who is making them, some sweat-shop in Asia? It seems materials & labor would cost that much... Not to mention the fit on that front bumper (to hood) don't look too good. Anyone try these yet? How much prep was required??

At least there are now more options for the Fiero. For many years there have been only rebodies. It is good to see people like Dean, Jimmy, Rob, and now these guys making new parts for the Fiero. Now, how much is shipping going to kill you Candian guys?

If i remember correctly they make them out of a far cheaper material. Newer composite very flexible. The price did get me too... cheap for body panels.

From the looks of that warehouse and their overall operations in the video it does not seem like they are messing around. Looks like a higher volume operation and it also sounds like it is not laid fiberglass panels either. It is some kinda fiber reinforced plastic or something and they probably made a higher production mold. There has gotta be a couple hundred different noses just on that one rack in the foreground in the video so I would guess they make up for the lower cost by selling a bunch of parts instead of just a few. I would love to see one of these kits on a fiero that is not that crappy low front end view that does not do much for the car it seems. Is there a picture anywhere that has these kits in a full walk around video of the car? Some of the hondas and BMW's in those pics look pretty nice. peace
Just added a bumper to the cart and checked shipping....listed $165, so almost $350 total for a front bumper. Looks like they're making their money off shipping like many EBay vendors tend to do.

$165 for shipping. Duno how much profit there making... Go to UPS.com and gestimate what the size and weigth of the package would be. You will be supprised at how much it costs to ship an item this large...
that has to go either ups / fed ex oversize shipment or truck freight which isn't cheap either way its reasonable. I agree with roger about the Ferrari styling. The other two are on the tuner side and that's good for those who are into the scene. I also like some of the side ground fx they have subtle variations in shape that add to the car and gets rid of the ruller look between the rockers.
Thoes shipping prices are reasonable.. they dont ship these things through UPA and places like that. The last kit i got from them (back in my honda days) came in a crate off a rig.

Slick visuals and hot women. Although I like both of those things, they are not what motivates me to buy. I can't help wondering why such a huge inventory is neccesary. If anyone here buys from them please post your satisfaction. I'm doing the replica thing and I've never seen so many rip off sellers in any other industry. Not even close. Just be careful. Maybe they are legit.

I know the company IS legit. been there done that. The neon kit i got from them years ago was really nice. I asked some of the guys at the local car hangout i randomly visit, and these guys swear by them. so... who knows.

Anything I want shipped to Maine will cost me $175. The front and rear I want just fall short in cost, w/shipping, as a whole kit would run me with shipping. Not a hard choice for me.
One more thing to add to the "list"

Check with them to see if theyre going to any major events, like Daytona or Carlisle. You can save all the shipping by picking it up there. I bought my Ferrari body at Carlisle and brought it back with a rented truck.

I wouldn't mind the JDM nose, but I would ditch the side vents and just have the fascia smooth on the sides and make the lower defuser smaller and protrude less.

A lot of very bad reviews on the products out there... EG: Product arrived with very visible repairs, when it was sold as new. Customer support from VFiber amounts to "If you don't like it, ship it back at your cost, and pay a 15% restocking fee" even when the issue is with the product and not a "dislike"...
Just google "Vfiber review".

Just from looking at the pictures on the site, I can tell that they are cheap, poorly made kits. What can you expect for a entire 4 piece body kit for $500!? (not shipped)
A well designed and crafted body kit will easily run you $1500-$2000.
Just in the pictures in the post 2 posts above me, Look at the line of the meeting of the nose piece to the hood. Hood has the "peak" in the middle, bumper does not. (unless thats just a POS hood scoop) Look at the massive shadow on the rear bumper under the rear reflector. Not contoured right. But for that price, you cant really complain. I would say they would make great starting points for someone wanting to make their own body kit but hacking up and modifying them to fit right.

Yeah, those two are perhaps the best ones the company offers, but I too don't know the quality of the product. I agree with you regarding the side vent on the nose, but the rear bumper ground FX doesn't continue at a higher level similar the door's ground fx. That said, at least the company trying to produce some products for the Fiero.
