Thanks for a on topic reply mate!!
I mean, even with just two sets purchased, it works out to be under US$980 delivered. And with the high AU$, it will just work out to be just over AU$1000.
At that price, i'm already smiling
Hahaha... No worries mate! i recently bought a new IS 250 and i wanted to get the bodykits installed but the salesguy advised me not to get it cos if i did, the additional cost for the bodykit would have been subjected to LCT!!! So yeah... As i've already spent a bomb on the car, i would prefer to bring down the cost of the bodykit as much as possible. $1200AUD is an ideal figure incl shipping.
By the way, in the event if we go ahead with the group purchase, do u have any idea how much it will cost me to get the bodykits installed on my car?
I would take my bodykit to my local smash repairers. Since the kit is already painted, and ready to fit. I would say its a 3hour job. The front and sides are really simple, however the rear is more involved.
From memory, my smash repairer charges $60-$70 an hour. I will call them tomorrow to make sure.
The ideal place for installation would probably be a lexus dealership, but their hourly labour rates are close to $100. And i dont think they can get the job done in three hours. Coz they installed my boot spoiler, and it nearly took them 2hours.
