Hey all, so whats up with this Duraflex thing?? Commercials of it being extremely flexible and durable? Marketing gimmicks or serious business?
I love the V2 kit but theres no way Id be able to afford the real deal. So I started looking for a replica. (Wanted a Kenstyle replica but sadly no such thing, what a beautiful kit though).
Heres what I found:
http://www.andysautosport.com/nissan...r00230672.html
Too good to be true? Seems like, and if it seems like then it probably is.
But andys does great business from what ive read? So what do you guys think?
I know theres another replica site (SHine?) where I can get just the front bumper for the same price as this entire kit and it'd have much better quality and fit, but would a N2 bumper fit well with an 03 Tourings sideskirts and rear bumper?
Lemme know!
Thx in advance!

I have yet to see someone use the Duraflex brand / material.
Shine is a great vendor on here.
Heard many good things about them on their quality and fitment.
Kind of expensive, but worth it.
I personally have the V2 kit from Strafe Automotive.
Happy with the fitment and product.
Only 500$ shipped to my door.
Andysautosport has outrageous shipping.
Screw that.
I ordered my hood from them a long time ago.
Before I found the glory of Private and Vendor Classifieds.

I have the V2 replica from duraflex and the fitment is great for the front end. But I wish I can say the same to their rear add ons and their side skirts. They didn't come even close to fitting for me. I made the rear add ons work. Just need minor adjustment to them but I am still in search for some side skirts.

My dad and I are not mechanically inclined whatsoever.
Turned out just fine even for the kit being fiberglass

And I'm pretty scared to get fiberglass because its so fragile... if anyone bumps into me thats cracks and fractures... eughhh
Thanks for the replies everyone

I'm never going to buy anything else from them. I bought smoked tail light cover way back when I had my first car. Price for part and shipping was reasonable but it took me a month just to get it. And their customer service wasn't that great neither. Just trying to get in touch with someone to inquire about my order over the phone was difficult. I would just save up and get the kit from Shine Auto. You know what they say. "You get what you pay for."

I have the bumper sitting in my garage, but unfortunately I won't have time to get it on and painted until around Thanksgiving this year. I ordered through AAS along with some other parts, and a $1300 order became a $1700 order after shipping, and took about 4 weeks to get here, due to a back order on my hood from ED.
I've read pretty awful things about AAS and don't think I'll be doing business with them anymore. What you should do is use them as a catalog since their website is extremely organized, and then go directly to the manufacturer's website and order through them. The kit directly from ED would have probably cost quite a bit less, especially on shipping (see above post by extreme dimensions).
Sorry I can't be more helpful as far as fitment goes, but I will have the bumper installed in a few months if you haven't yet made your order.

No one wants to sell a painted kit because each kit still needs to be slightly modified specifically for your car. As well as the hassles of the possibility of something happening to the paint as it's being shipped.

Just to advise you. DONT BUY FROM ANDY AUTO!!!!
Those guys are scammers! I ordered a set of Bride seat brackets and they sent me some knock offs from China. To boot they only sent me one set but they had "a pair" posted on their site.
On contacting them they keep dodging my email and told me to hold on for a prepaid box to send them back. It's been 2 months. I paid full price and they are being d*cks about it. I will suggest people to boycott them.
