Default Where to find body kit pieces in US?

Guys,

I have been trying to find a rear bumper and sides of certain bodykits in the US. Every website I find that sells just parts of a kit and doesn't make you buy the whole thing seems to be in Japan.

So basically my question is "Who in the US sells body kit pieces as opposed to making you buy the whole kit?

Right now I am open to any decent kit as long as it isn't Bomex or any other cheap crap...

Thanks,
Jonny

There are a bunch of places that sell good quality piece kits. Look on Ebay the Durakits are good quality cause the molds are taken of the original JIC Magic and Vertex body kits!

Also note that with all PFG kits there will be some shaving and maybe "Very slight chance with these kits from Raconusa" refibergalssing to fit the car! Overall my 2 friends had there real kits from Vertex taken and redone in the raceonusa duraflex material and they are crack free for for almost a year now! I talked to Raceonusa a while ago and they say they make molds of the real kits and do there best to have them the same quality in fitment as the originals for a fraction of the price! So just go look around! and tone of links for kits are posted by people on CL so use the search function!

All the kits I have found that are <$2000 look like crap. I was looking at the AC but I have a perfectly good front bumper that I can use so was just wanting to put a kit together. Thanks for your help though

I can only assume that you are talking to me.

Are my limited to posting or what? What do you mean "what's up with it?"

I did try searching, if you can read you would see I already said I searched to no avail.

Thanks.
