    2 questions:
    1) What make of car would these kits be for mostly?
    2) Is that USD or Canadian dollars?

    Too much IMO.

    Other sellers have tried what you are doing, and have sold around the $800 region.

    Then again, i'm not sure what kind of quality the kits you are talking about are, so whose to say? I would much rather pay a couple hundred extra and have it fit right, then pay a lot more to get the body shop to mould it right.

    I said it sounds fair because I am unaware of the style of kit. I do trust you'd only sell quality products.

    Tottally off-topic, did you end up getting that bike?

    Depends on the quality, urethane, fiberglass, or abs plastic?
    Replica kits?
    Full kits? full bumpers or just lips?
    What vehicles?
    Fitment issues?

    I've paid $2500 for a Rieger Kit, and almost bought a Hamann one for $4000, it depends dude......I assume you are talking about Hondas/Toyotas here

    like others have siad it depends on kit. whether its fiberglass, urethane or whatever..........

    i think i paid ~$1600-$1700 for a complete front bumper which is not bad... considering i have a friend that paid over $2000 for his..

    $1100 sounds fair, compared to most stealth/3000gt body kits which are about 5 grand.

    Eightfive used to sell them for 800, and they were great fits. From what I remember, the Wings West were about 1000 or so.

    $1100 sounds high for fiberglass aero kits especially for just the normal applications like Honda/Acura/Toyota etc.
    We could possibly do a body kit group buy for most stuff on our website (www.importadrenelin.com) for kits at around $750 or less for full kits. But price depends on quality. You best bet always is to purchase Wings West, Kaminari, etc. for best fitment.
    Authentic C-West, Bomex etc. is also very good but is still fiberglass and very expensive.

    Spend $1100 on your engine instead
