Same as I said last time. It's the SAME KIT, so it's coming thru the SAME FOLKS.

I actually think it's a different business, but selling fake kits. They've already got a fake Veilside kit on their site. Any place that's selling fake kits (Veilside body kits labeled as VSide or Agressor or Shogun) is a place that I would stay away from. No telling what the quality or fitment would be on any of the kits you order. I'd suggest getting either an authentic Veilside body kit or the Zefiro from KSpec, just my opinion though

The Cuda kit that Shark Racing/Team SR sells is a knockoff of the Concepto "C1" bodykit. Definitely not the same quality material and it will more than likely have some fitment problems as well (but nothing serious). The reason SR/TSR can't get the fogs, foglight rings, muffler tips, or emblems is because they haven't copied them! And have you wondered why the price came down from $2000+ to just over $1000? Der--it's a knockoff itself!

If you're looking for a high-quality bodykit, then I would take majiktib's suggestion and go with either the Zefiro "Turbo" or "Evo". Not only do both fit like a glove, but they are also are made of a very high-impact fiberglass that is sure to last quite a long time.

However, I'd say to visit us over at ImportShark.com to purchase it, instead of Kspec. I am part of the exclusive North American distributorship for Zefiro and would be happy to help you guys out.

PS: Shipping to Norway is in the $350 range, and import tarrifs usually run about $125 in most European nations...

Welcome to the site man, and of course we'd refer anyone to Rick at REAL, then to you guys.

Kspec just doesn't sell bodykits anymore. Too much of a hassle.

Rick and I are business partners--we share the importation rights to MANY different bodykits (Zefiro included). Basically, it doesn't matter which one of us gets a sale, the funds are going to the same bank account! wink1.gif

Rick has been extremely busy these days, and asked me to (finally) make an appearance here on RDT.com to help him with all of the inquiries he gets...

Well, I might be able to get them. The only problem is that my business agreement with Concepto is only for their Tuscani and Elantra models, not the Tiburon bodykit. I think they're pretty pissed that their C1/Cuda kit was copied and do not want to allow any more of these parts into North America.

However, being that I'm Mr. Importer Man, I'll see what I can do... wink1.gif

That will suck greatly if you can get the fog lights and rings. Cause I've lost faith in finding a set and bought a set of Sanat Fe lights. They measure 5" in diameter and fit pretty well. With a little modification they WILL fit. LOL.

Just more headaches than I need right now.
