Unusual Body kit

[mrcrazyrolla]

Sup Guys. I'm trying to get a sportivo body kit for my pre-face '04 ascent.

I found this on ebay.

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...E:X:RTQ:AU:1123

Wtf? a front lip? doesn't the sportivo front bar replace the ascent one?

$400 for the full kit + $380 for painting (Cascade blue, factory) + $120 for freight.

I can install my self quite easily.

What do ya think?

FYI, I was quoted $2,750 for the full Sportivo Kit (including spoiler + installation) from my local toyota dealers.

Cheers,

-Azza

The sportivo kit that i have put on mine is 100% Toyota Genuine parts for the Sportivo Corolla.... not fibreglass lol :P

And your car isn't an accent but an Ascent... accent is those damn hyundai's <_<

I don't think of my car being an Ascent... its too good for that name LOL 1zz Sportivo FTW!!!

Bad quality? Pros and cons of fiberglass rather then...what are genuine body kits made out of?

if you run over something with a fibreglass kit, chances are you would need to discard the kit.. the genuine part are made out of ABS plastic.. easier to work with and a lot more durable too.. (Some panel beaters actually wouldnt work with fibreglass)

yeah i've had a really good look...northy accessories makes me cream.

The hard part is telling how low it will sit on stockie suspention.

With my lame driveway it's either:

50/30mm Kings (50 back, 30 front) with monroe shocks

OR

Sportivo Body Kit.

If I get both, the kit wouldn't last a week.

so on stockie springs...if i install the kit...maybe an inch less clearance? 2 inches at the back?

Can anyone confirm?

FYI I don't have access to a sportivo otherwise i'd just take the lips off and measure :P

EDIT: pre-face. made 04/04. We just celebrated her birthday

I believe the face-lift started in 06/04?

for your info, i have kings Lows all round, and i don't get scrubbing anywhere... the are roughly 30or 35MM, i can't remember lol :P

but if you get the 50mm springs in the back... it will just level out your car, not essentially make it much lower...

You will be suprised how much it is to put the stivo kit on my car... something that you don't want to know about :o

Oh ok thanks evo.

It's also the overall ground clearance i'm worried about. I've never scraped the stockie ascent body on my driveway but I often scape my 3" catback (it's cos i got a dump tip) if i'm not thinking about my angle.

So as you can tell getting a body kit is a large concern to me :P

I appriechiate your time everyone!

I'll post some pics of my baby once i get my windscreen fixed (goddamn trucks).

Trying to set up a refund system with the seller in Melbourne...he seems like a good guy.

http://www.creativebodyworks.com.au/home.php

These guys will be installing it for me ^^^^

After all is said and done, its only gonna be a 8 - 900 dollar kit.

I can live if i do some damage to it.

It might only be a temporary thing know what i mean? I can always remove it...have a good looking ascent again. Plus i'll gain a sexy wall feature :P
