those projectors are cheaper than cheap (a guy here sells them for USD $850, which is suppose to be very cheap) , but still quite alot to spend

I got up at 6am this morning just to look the the front strutbrace


and then later on I'll get the side skirts and rear splitters

Rusty I see you paid $1056 for the hight and low beam projetors. Is that the full price? does that include shipping?

[Rusty]

and thats in NZ dollars remember that. Yup thats all I paid for them as for shipping, it was FREE right to my door step and they arrived at my place in just 2 days after entering the country.

I looked into Projectors, CPA in Wellington offered me a set for $880 brand new, NZD, I thought that sounded like a lot at the time. Bad call...

[Rusty]

I'm still happy with the price (still alot cheaper than everybody else/most people) that must have been quite a while ago then? aussie dollar isn't doing to good with NZ dollar?


Anyway a little update, parts arrive in the country in about 5-6 days time, now I want the get them just after New Years, just so theres no chance of them getting lost in the post, because of Xmas

I lived in Wellington at the time, it was about 12-18 months ago. Sorry, I wasn't suggesting you got a bad deal, more a slap of my own forehead at missing out on a good one!

[Rusty]

oh right, yeah price must have gone up. I'm happy with the price (after hearing what the best deal my local toyota could do, NZ$1500 roughly)

[Rusty]

yeah rest of the body kit arrives this week

[Jaws4God]

[Rusty]
