hi all, i'm desperatly looking for good quality kit. it's my first time with a vw and modifying anything actualy. it would help if it's in really good condition so minimum work is needed. i'm in victoria but i'll be happy to pay for courier!!! reallly really want em!
Learner ·
can anyone help? or if some one could direct me to a shop that could provide them (i guess i'll have to spend more $$$$)
aussiebaja ·
why dont you look at modifying the steel ones ,,,they would be a lot stronger ,,you could see what people think in the offroad section
makntracks ·
i know your in melbourne but you could probly try cor they might have an old set. i think they sell new kits to not shore tho.
Learner ·
who's cor? custom off road? they advertise for 990 seems a bit costly but would that be the price to pay? about modifying steel ones, i have though about that but i want to try to get a kit first.
thanks people

heaters are for sissys, toughen up!
u can however get 4 into 1 setups that retain the heaters but they are alot more restrictive.
look at the CVW website offroad section

Geez.... god DAM! they are getting more and more expensive... the last 18 months has just been price rises on that kit :o
U can get a alright 2nd hand kit for $150... spend at most another 100 on sanding, paint and fibreglassing materials, along with a little bit of elbow grease, and it would be as good as a $990 kit for sure.
Learner ·
they went up all round for brand new ones. Boof, is there much work to do on the kit? i'll call tomorrow cheers

check ebay there was a kit there under volkswagen

I'm paying 280 for a second hand kit and it has rectangular headlights:puke
however living in the best state in australia ( W.A.) has other advantages
Learner ·
yeah there nothing in Vic i checked ebay everyday i must have missed it!
Let me know if you want it, I can pick it up if you arrange a courier to get it down to you.
bajachris88 ·

Learner ·

alright so where do they make thoses kits? i know custo(i think it's called) but i'm not sure about the quality either.
those 3 places (plus many more in the states but i wouldn't go that far) have em (new) Where else? and does anyone know their quality? this would be helpfull for many people like me.
go around and have a look. the ones from south australia was just a side project and they sold on ebay they where of really good qualitiy im sure fibre fab ones would be good also
