Hiro Protagonist Posted April 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 Hmmm, found a bar on Yahoo Japan (through Import Monster), along with a few other tasty bits....I'm severly tempted, not too sure on the bar though as it might have a bit of damage (don't you just _love_ Engrish), no indicators or foglights, plus freight etc....

Hiro Protagonist Posted July 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2010 Preliminary front bar shots - still need to get it painted (I'm not one of those douches who drives around with mis-matched body panels) and get some indicators. Despite the lack of foglights or the lip extension (which I really hoped I was getting, but they turned out to be window trims.....) it still looks better than stock, and who knows - maybe someday I'll find another FXGT being wrecked in Japan and I'll get the extras Old front bar off Old v new New on Sunlight angle wasn't conducive to front-on shots, might try for some better ones tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satyr Posted August 25, 2010 Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 Very curious about the cost of that (item + import/delivery). Been wanting one for ages myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hiro Protagonist Posted August 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 Very curious about the cost of that (item + import/delivery). Been wanting one for ages myself. Which one? The FXGT bar? Bought it from YahooJP through Import Monster, the actual bid price was only about $75 but when you add comission, shipping (has to come via container as too big for air-mail) plus domestic delivery from Melbourne it came out around $350, if you got it privately or somewhere more local (NZ supposedly has significantly more FXGTs than Aus, and shipping is a lot cheaper) then you could save a bit of money.
