thats not the real buddy club from japan. That is some american company that makes knock off kits! How dare you get the two confused. The Real buddy club is at http://www.first-inc.co.jp/

They would never make anything so horrible looking. Clearly that buddyclub2 kit is a Veilside V.3 knock-off

If anyone cares to know I called to inquire about the regular kit (not the widebody) and the price they are asking was $1200 with $150 for shipping tacked on so $1350 total.

No, it's not by the same Buddy Club of Honda fame. This is a kit by "Buddy Club 2" of no fame. It's a sound-alike US-based company. Kinda like JT Marlin and JP Morgan. The true Buddy Club doesn't make an aerokit for the 350Z.

Was never a big fan of the V3 front...but that Buddy club 2 one looks ALOT cleaner without the circle holes/ fog light housing in front...

link didn't work for me but if this kit is the buddy club 2 from henshin auto design the quality of the kit is very good. i had the BC2 kit for my old 02 se-r specV and the kit fit perfect. i made no modifications prior to installation. the kit was hand laid fiber glass and gel coated. not sure how this kit will look on a Z though. oh ya, price was good, $800 for the full kit.

i had been checking henshin's website from time to time hoping they would come out with something. i think i will change to this kit and sell my current vs ver 1. i also think it will look hot painted!

does anyone know if the exhaust in the pics on their website is the stock exhaust? They almost dont stick out at all. Still looks nice though.
