That is very tastefully done, looks great. Especially like the front bar.

Agree wouldn't be my preference for wheels but they still look OK I think.

Anyone know what that front bar is? Definitely the best looking front bar I've seen for the FTO.

No, Nengun state shipping once you add to cart.
Bought a few things from them.

That's just the price of the bar, which still, even if you add a rough price of shipping on top, is not too bad.

They do not ship large items like that internationally anyway (which would probably get damaged in freight anyway)

Perhaps.
But it will not be close to the original.

Dwayne has been down the route of importing a front bar, so knows what's involved.

As before, you get enough people interested, make a mold, etc, then in the end you have paid less the cost of the original regardless.

Still, even Dwayne I think has 1 bar left, and people do pull out of the EOIs.

Am I the only one who doesn't like this car? :\

The paint job looks like they've used black spray can paint, looks really cheap. The wheels don't suit the car also. The only thing that looks "ok" is the front bumper.

I agree, im not the biggest fan. Yes, I can appreciate that a lot of work and or money has gone into it but eh.. not to my taste, except the front bar.
I fix cars.

You would need to make a bracket to bolt them onto the FTO hubs.
