Nup, is the genuine article I think. I think someone of the forum has already bought one of these and is in the process of fitting it. Have a bit of a trawl through the old threads and you should find reference to it.

Postage will be the killer though!!!!

Not bad for the $, freight could be a bit though.
Something else to think about... Looks like you've got a Veilside front bar on yours from the pic you posted in the Newbies section. Means that you'd also have to source a stock front bar from somewhere as well to get this on your car, the front is just a lip that attaches to the bottom of the stock bar.

This is helpful too:

EDIT: He he, you beat me Dstocks. Mel_Star_1 might also want to ask you about the cost of stock front bars...

Yep

Yep, but unfortunately I havent done the images for that bar yet :oops:

If someone can get me front and side piccies of each of the kit parts similar to the ones shown on Virtual FTO, I can probably rectify that :D

I wouldnt really say "too good to be true" cos that's GBP, will work out to be like triple that amount, and the VS u have currently is a lot cheaper than that 8)

700 bucks..i think a veilside costs more then that

wait.. is that the full kit? if so then i spose its not so bad for the price, altho if something doesnt fit, u cant send it back.
and its a really subtle looking kit, almost stockish like the facelift model so i could see why the price would be reasonable IF thats a full kit.

its sideskirts, front and rear aprons. its not a full front bar or rear bar.

Oh i see, i thought it was thw whole front and back bars not just extensions. That changes things then maybe not what i'm after right now. Thanks all for the comments :D
