I hope your pockets are deep haha

It looks like the rear 1/4 panels just sit on top of the stock panel. Going to need to cut 1/4s a lot. If you can do all the paint prep/fitment work you can save a lot of money.

Kit: http://www.bulletproofautomotive.com/catal...ail.php?ID=7057
Wing 1800mm (if not different): http://www.bulletproofautomotive.com/catal...ail.php?ID=7165
Canards: $xxx
Exhaust (if not custom): http://www.bulletproofautomotive.com/catal...ail.php?ID=7166
Wheels: $??? fenders are like 70-80mm wide i think
Tires: $??
Paint/pre/fitment/install: $??

$$$$$$!

It's one of those kits that would look pretty cool if done right, and absolutely god-awful if done cheaply.

The parts alone will be very expensive. And from my own experience with fitting aftermarket stuff, I'd say it'd cost at least 10k, possibly even more. That is, if you want it to look decent. Maybe some shops would do it for less money, but the quality might suffer.

If you're serious about getting a kit like this, have you considered the ASM widebody that Bulletproof is selling? https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=826905
Might be easier to go with that than hunting down the elusive J's kit.

It's a sick kit but I'd do it if you have enough money after that on engine mods as well, or the car won't deliver the speed it looks to have lol.

i agree you get what you pay for pretty much if im gonna spend 7500 on the kit im gonna do it right but i think the rear quarters just gon on over top not cut and rivet so i think that will be a huge money saver and me with help from my buddy (works at a body shop) can fit most of the kit i think so everytime i see a pic of the kit i like it more and more but if i order it i wont get it until may... haha
