So what does the wide body version cost for this kit? I'm guessing 10k shipped?

I'm sure with enough work and know-how you'll be able to fit them just fine.
Voltex and Chargespeed are Aero companies so that makes sense. When performance/tuning shops make aero parts, generally the fitment can be hit or miss.

Not new news or new post. Already a Rocketbunny/ stardast / Garagemak thread

Spoke to Bo about a year ago about the kit, but never pulled the trigger. Depending on how it comes out with you may help me decide if I like the looks. I'm not sure if its wide enough for the cost (IMO)\


It will be interesting to know how much labor needs to be put into it to get it to fit, if any. I know Brian (BMcCann) has put weeks $$$$$ into getting his Stardast to fit and was suppose to be "perfect fit."

i also feel that the kit is mixture of other brands body kits..

just a feeling.. sexy though

yeah, it's one reason i just dont know if I like it. The lines dont flow as well as the stock fenders or a custom widebody bodywork.

Not sure about the complete kit, but I was given a +$2,000 for just the front fenders and rear overlay(?) pieces.

Lol ^ yeah this last looks revamp has run me 35 grand so far this year. . Soon to be more.. fak.

As far as the Stardast fit.. it was absolutely perfect and thr most incredible fiberglass work I've laid hands on.. im simply customizing the sht out of everything lol... and reshaping an entire car of parts that aren't meant to fit together at all.... i could have bolted them.on in my driveway..but chose to spent several thousand redoing minor and major things to make.things flow ..so it's perfect

I'm in love with this kit. Looking forward to some finished pics.

I've tried to track down pics of this kit on a black Z but can't for the life of me find one, has anyone seen one and can repost?

I thought I saw some on the Garage Mak Facebook page, but all I could find are their white one and one in Silverstone. You may want to check the Garage Mak blog.

where is the best place to buy this? interested mainly in the rear bumper. assuming the rear reflectors and center fog would be sold separate.
found a site online but wasn't clear if it was the rear bumper or rear fender flares as it was called rear adapter - dunno what that is

I was considering exactly the same. Having the garage mak rear, with the reflectors and fog light. Not sure what side skirts I want but was thinking of the Nismo V2 front. Hard to know if it would balance well. It was very difficult to interpret whats included on the websites I visited too.

Rear fog light is simply the EVO-R 370Z rear fog light. As for the reflectors...they're actually reflectors with LEDs inside. The quality of the pair I received was very low. I had to order my own LEDs, open up the reflectors, then put them in. I'm not sure where they source it, but the quality can be much better. Just a warning from my experience!

Also, the front bumper is a modified Nismo V2 with a lip/splitter. It would balance out well, since it'll look pretty much the same! The only difference is the vents by the middle opening and the grill is taken out on the Garage Mak version.

i reccomend the EVO r light as well. or at least just a 370z oem fog light.. the Garage Mak is 450.
