hey guys I was brousing the web and came up with a site that sells the replica Vertex full kit for the 350Z for $700. Now the question is, how would you think it will fit the Z? Would you buy the replica since the real version costs close to $2000 just for the bodykit. I mean if the replica fits nicely and only $700, I wouldnt mind. What do you guys think about this? Worth the money or not?

 

where do they have Vertex kit for 700?

 

Replica's are known for replica quality and fitment. Some are good, some are bad.

You basically get what you pay for.

they dont even mention that its a replica.

 

would you buy it or not?

 

NOPE. Replica's qualit is always replica, no matter how good it is, it can't compare to original.

 

By the time you spend the money on getting the replica to look like the original you could've just paid for the original. Don't buy the replica unless you do your own body work and/or don't have to pay for body work labor.

 

yeah thats true replica kits are crap...i got the original kit and i gotta tell you its one well made kit..fitment is like OEM..i personally saw this kit in person its real cheesy...VIS quality...by the time you buy this kit and take it to the shop for prep and finish your gonna end up spending more money than the real deal...word of advice you pay for what you get..go original..

 

plus, you have to take durability to consideration also. I mean after all the work, they might looks the same, but what about few years later. I heard many story regarding the replica kit's become curvy and such. Althought both the original and replica's material are fiberglass, the quality of material itself has big difference.

 

you know there's something wrong already when they use the word "fitament"

 

I agree....with replicas you get what you pay for...get the real Vertex....

 

Its worth getting a real deal vertex...

 

True!

 

get the real thing, or ill make fun of you

 

if i may,
take a look at what you have spent on your car. tt kit, defi guages, volk wheels. all are pretty high quality parts.

support the REAL people who have spent the money and time in their own ideas and not the ones who rip-off of what others do.

replicas

 

Yeah you guys have a point. I am going to save up for either the real Vertex half kit or the full. I havent decided yet. The half kit is a very clean and subtle kit that I like very much. The full kit is the most cleanest full bodykit out there. I cant decide I need some opinions! My girl wants something clean as well and not too crazy.

 

I might be a guinea pig for the Vertex replica.....

 

Well, I'm fully prepared to be a guinea pig for the replica kit with full write-ups all along the way.

I just want to track down anyone who has bought from this site before, and if at all possible someone who has fit this kit....or someone who knows someone who fit the kit...or someone who knows someone who kno....you get the picture.

 

GO for it lets see how crappy it will look next to the real deal... lol.. ill even meet u up since i have the real vertex to back it up.

 

not everyone has 2000 dollars to spend on a body kit (pre-installation). if someone can find a good replica for a good price, i dont see what the problem is. personally speaking, i wouldnt buy a replica because of the inferior quality. but if someone else wants to go ahead and try... more power to them.
