Type-R bodykit

SimplyTheBest1989 · 29th November 2008, 20:19

How much would the cost of the standerd Type-R bodykit be in nighthawk black??

It would be getting fitted to my Type-S so if anyone has had this fitted off Honda how much did it cost them??

Hope to hear from anyone soon.
Thanks.

Just paint your S trims they are identical.

That is certainly going to be your cheapest option.

If it was a five dr then sensible, but as it's an S it is the same bodykit shape, just unpainted.

Some people if memory serves were talking 500 quid+ you'd be looking at shed loads more from Honda. It should not be a problem if it is prepared properly.

A decent bodyshop would be able to do this for you for about £350-£400.

They use a special primer which would allow them to sand down the trims so they are smooth. Also you wouldn't have the hassle of fitting a kit yourself.

A good paint shop can source and mix paint.

Robbieee · 29th November 2008, 21:08
