Beware of ebay kits, they usually are backyard companies doing this with cheap fiberglass materials. We sell both genuine and replica nismo parts, and the kits we sell that are replica are made with nicer and cleaner fiberglass than most of the knock offs on ebay. you can get kits that fit ok, or well on ebay, for good prices, don't get me wrong, but just beware.
Also, shipping for $100 is pretty scary, that would more than likely mean it's in one box, and there is a huge chance for damage during shipping if they are shipped like that.

The kit on ebay is made from urethane?
that's too good to be true. I don't believe that one for a second.
If you meant the real nismo kits, then yea, the US ones are urethane, and the JDM ones are fiberglass as are the replicas

yeah i just looked at the ebay listing now. that's believable. all urethane would be a bit higher.

I order this kit and received it last Thursday. The front is made out of urethane and the sides and rear is cheap fiberglass. The side & rear skirts were somewhat cracked. The price wasn't bad for it, but i hope it just fits correctly. I haven't had a chance to take get it painted and installed yet because my car just came out of storage. I let you know how it works out.

got a quote from the seller for the sides and rear, $200 plus $100 shipping. I paid for it on Sunday, but mis-read they are NOT Polyurethane, so I emailed him to cancel it.

He just refunded my PayPal money this morning. So at least the seller has decent customer service! Plus 1 point!

Been having bad luck with replica fiberglass bodykits, so I think I'll pass for now..

I'm dropping off my kit at the body shop before my vacation on 4/1 and my car will be done on 4/8. As soon as its done, I'll have pics of the whole body kit from this seller. FYI, this seller has a lack of communication and didn't send me any mounting hardware. Hopefully, my kit turns out good!
