I checked their site and looked thru their catalog and found the kit but when i click on it it goes to the sport line instead of the executive... dont know whats up with that. so then i went to look at their dealors and found one that is located in CA (fairly close) and they do not offer it so i would need to get it special ordered from wald throught the dealor... anyone have any idea how much that would cost? oh and i have no idea how much the body kit its self is either because nobody has prices anywhere..

thanks again!

I would talk to the shop, and have them get you a quote. They would know best.. Or you could try contacting Wald directly.. Oh, and the front looks like it's just the JDM Aristo front bumper with a lip.. Should save you some pesos in the long run..

It's discontinued as of about a year or so ago.L-tuned used to be able to get it, but now you're most likely going to have to find it used. I'd like the front lip. You could always try your luck with memoryfab.com or ebay. Just a fyi, its a lip kit not a full bumper replacement

Thanks for the heads up, i had no idea it was only a lip on the front.. so i guess that means that i would need to pick up a aristo front bumper? and i emailed the dealor and they said they could special order it for me WOOT! but the whole its discontinued thing has me worried.. maybe he is thinking of a different body kit. although i was pretty specific in my email..

Thats strange. When my bumper was in paint, I was looking around for lips, and since thats always been ones of my favorites, I checked back and it said "discontinued"....I think that may have been the Memoryfab.com site, either MF.com or L-tuned for sure.

I may have to give them a call if they can special order it though. Thank YOU for the heads up

ps. and yes, you'll need the Aristo bumper. Ebays your best bet but there are plenty of other sellers in classifieds or what not. Try clubaristo.net too, chances are good finding one there since theyre mostly all real Aristos

did you try contacting auto fashion in San Diego, Ca? for the Aristo front bumper contact Venus Auto in Sacramento, Ca. I picked up a whole Aristo front end for around 400. headlights and bumper and the bumper supports, and fogs.
