EOI: ORIGIN LAB GROUP BUY LEVIN *VERTEX STYLE KIT GENUINE**CANCELLED**
|

Hello,
As I am currently sick to death of trying to organise a vertex style body kit locally(one that fits, one that requires no modification, a kit that is prooven not to be warped or bent and promised by the supplier to be of a quality part), I have come across an Australian supplier that currrently offers 100% genuine origin lab kits direct from Japan(http://www.origin-lab.com/sae86levin.htm).
Im trying to find interest in a group buy for origin lab body kits(5 people required). The kits are going to be organised through slidewize imports who are currently teamed up with D1 garage and are the suppliers for Origin Lab kits(http://www.origin-aust.com/).
Currently the price for a Levin kit is $1095 + freight to your door step($150.00) and will require a 50% up front deposit(kits will arrive Julyish). This is a non-group buy price as I am currently finalising a price for the whole group buy.
Even so the current price for the kit is a bargain for a genuine imported kit. So don't waste your money and time on local copies that don't fit and require modification and cost alot more. I also have been informed there is no 86's which currently sport the origin lab kits in Australia at the momment, so these kits will be one of the first or if not the first to arrive into the country.
The only benefit for myself in organising this group buy is that it will lower my price for original purchase and also helping out the toymods community as there have been alot of unhappy customers who have purchased local vertex style kits who have been promised a quality product but in fact, have been fooled and stung into buying something that is a utter piece of shit.
Aero parts that I am also looking into about doing a group buy is Genuine Vented Carbon Fibre Origin Lab Bonnets 100% genuine(have been quoted $995) for non group buy, Vented Front gaurds, and rear pumped gaurds.
Keep the flamage out of this thread , even if this Group buy doesn't go to plan or go through. It is just a heads up of the quality parts that are currently available, which are genuine and available at a awesome price.
Cheers
UPDATE
Currently there is still a fair bit of interest, but as many people are pulling out due to the fact these kits will require Japanese bumper supports and can not pay the deposit by the required date. I will have to cancel the group buy.
If you are still interested in the kits, you can contact Zack from slidewize imports on (03)93188569 or 0401588550. Or can drop him a email at info@slidewizeimports.com.
Furthermore, I have recently been approached by a person that is offering TRD N2 wing copies at $210 and CBY flares for $400. If you would like the persons contact details drop me a PM, and I will pass them on to you. Quality of the parts are of the highest grade, and are to begin production very soon.
Cheers...

You would need the jap spec bumper supports, only 5% discount is given on the group buy of 5 and 10% discount is given on the group buy of 10(this offer is available for all origin lab kits). $595 is needed up front for a deposit, and a further $595 needs to be payed when the kit lands(this includes shipping) regarding group buy of 5. Price will be less on the group buy of 10 etc.

Ive never seen anything roght with ANY of them............ ask Simon, his shit was warped and fucked, beau yates kit is noticeably badly fitting. He is a legend up here with regards to his kits inaccuracy to fit most cars, not only ae86 but 180, silvia etc etc. bout the only kit ive seen fitted properly has been the one on his own car..........

update...
Front fenders are quoted at $550ish depending on how many people do the group buy and the rears are $300. I will be in contact with Zack in the next few days and will finalise price's, dates on arrival and all details. I currently have 3 people interested in kits(so another 2-7 people), and to find more interest may do a combined group buy with some of the guys from nissan silvia as the deal applies to all kits from the origin lab range.

Can everyone please keep the business bashing out of the thread, not being a tight ass but would prefer if the thread can stay open rather than get locked.

the group buy price is 5% discount on retail price for a group buy of 5($50 or something like that, not really worth the effort) and if 10 people go through with the group buy 10% discount. Not huge savings but savings none the less.

It will cost the same, if you buy from zack as the retail price is $1095. However, if get the numbers for the group buy (another 5 more people needed for the group buy), it will cost a 110 less.

You can pick up the kit FREE from Zack if u are in Melbourne as Zack is located in Melbourne.
|
Sorry... i was mistaken... Zack actually aquires the kit from interstate (D1-garage). So the postage for the kit will cost $150 to be sent to Melbourne. (As driftpig180sx stated in the first post)
If you go with the group buy though...u will save $110 on the price as driftpig180sx said, therefore paying for most of your postage.
Zack also says parts of the kit are avaliable individually.
Each piece (front bumper, sideskirts[pair] and rear bumper) are $395 each. (i dont think indidvidual pieces would apply to the group buy though).
Hope this info helps.
And for those that have only seen the 'RED origin-lab' AE86...
Here is a diffrent 1. Enjoy.

You would require jap-spec bumper supports, Truenosedan can get them but I can't remember the cost. There would be a way you could modify them to make the bar fit. I myself am going to be using jap spec mounts.

Sorry mate, due to the fact 3 guys have pulled out because they lacked the funds. The group buy was pointless if it were to be of 5people(saving of 50dollars each), thats why the group buy was cancelled. I was only contacted on tues/weds about the guys pulling out, so was not able to post this msg up earlier.
If you would like to purchase the kit, contact Zack on the above number, he has regular shipments of the kits every 6 weeks(my kit will be included in the next shipment) .
