Default Is this price too good to be true?

I found a fiberglass Nismo Z full body kit for $480 on ebay? Seems kind of cheap... Is it real or some crap imitation?

It's most likely a crap imitation.

They onyl good imitation I've read about so far is the ones sold by Gruppe-S.

Depends who made it as said above - I have seen a few, and the quality ranged from excellent to back yard amateur

We also have a replica version coming in ABS plastic which is very very nice as well.

In another thread, I read that the factory USA Nismo body kits are scheduled to be released in early December. You might want to hold off on your purchase until you see what the prices will be.

all those kits are probably from canada. not 100% perfect fitment, will need a few adjustments to the front bumper to fit, but for the money its good. only nitpicky individuals would be able to discern the fitment issues. I personally have a knockoff Nismo kit from Canada, fitment was average, but no one can really tell except me. Everyone loved it
