I am spending my summer here in Hong Kong and I just found out that my friend opened a company in the US that sells exterior parts but he gets all his parts produced in Hong Kong.
I am trying to get eyelids from him, which he doesn't have since the US doesn't have FTOs. But, I can always buy them from another company and just have him make the same ones.
These are the only type of eyelids he can get. I still have to discuss pricing with him. So let me know who would be interested so I can give him an estimate on the quantity.
Hmmm thats the same photo that SRS Auto in Sydney use. So i guess you can get it from them.

No, that's a picture I found from a company here in Hong Kong.
Anybody interested in the eyelids?
Funny do you work for SRS Auto, if not, how do you know these are not the same photo Because these are the same photo they send me. & they get their kits from HK too

No, I don't work for SRS Auto. I don't know if these are the same photos, but I meant to say that I didn't get the photos from SRS. These might be the same photos, but SRS got them from the company here in HK (as you can see the background, it's HK) and I found that same picture on a HK company's website. So I am suspecting that I know who SRS Auto's supplier is now.

by the way, I spoke with my friend, and he said they will be $80 USD shipped, and $40 USD extra to have him paint them to match the car. Let me know who would be interested. Thanks.
Hmmm around $103 Aus, thats not bad hey. Can your mate do something like this? (picture below) I know Camo is doing something like this with his mate, but i want to see what kind of option we can get.
Just out of curious why are you repeating what i said? And YES i'm from HK too, so i speak your "engrish" too heehehehe

Yea, I think he can get that style, since he can just get the eyelids and cut out the shape of those eyelids you posted. I will be seeing him this afternoon, so I will see what happens.
Haha, I just didn't understand what you meant the first time. I am actually kind of an American. I lived in New York for 15 years, then moved back to HK, and went to Sydney for school.
Ohhh & the front bumper too.....well thats what i mean really. but the eyelid is nicer then the "square" one.

$400USD would be for everything besides the spoiler, the wing should be just a little more, maybe $70-80 USD. Getting the kit is easy, it's just shipping it that's hard. He asid he shipped a from bumper to Singapore once and it cost around $140USD.
All his parts are made of fiberglass reinforced plastic, I just saw him install a Mazda 3 kit today and it was quality stuff.

topmix? did you know topmix isn't original to begin with? they are a company here in hong kong that copies bodykits from japanese companies in their factory in china.
he has no idea how to ship to melb, if someone does, please let me know.
serious? so who made that kit originally.? i love that kit though. if its plastic, good quality and costs lesser shipped to me than i can get it from here in oz im interested. see if anyone else is as well so we can make it a group buy , would cost heaps lesser in shippin costs
