[LIB80T]

hey guys,

ive been searching and searching but like everyone else it is soooo hard to find body kits for gen2 libertys, does anyone know where i could get a nice looking kit? i can buy everything separately not in a kit but theres just not much out there especially rear bumpers for a sedan thats what im mainly looking for because thats the only thing i havent found yet, anyone seen any around? any websites people know?

 

thanks, adam

Apart from getting one from Japan, which are mostly for wagons from what ive seen, they dont exist. That said the best "kit" imo is the standard RX/GTB side skirts, rear skirt and front bar

Mine is an rx hahaha yeh the front bar is nice, the sides are alright id like something a little different and imo the back is just plain boring i did find a different set of sideskirts and i might just put a splitter on the front to make it look just a little nier

Had this problem about 6 yrs ago, when the Gen 2 wasn't as old. Import Monster is good, there's also a site that was called TakaKaira.jp but now it's changed, it had all sorts of kits on offer but I never bought from them, Hippo Sleek, C-West, Tommy Kaira etc.

 

I also found a few fibreglass fabricators in Aus that were making customs bars for any style car based on production bars, so that is always an option if you're desperate for a different look.

 

Also, just adding little bits on to the skirts just behind the front and rear wheels like on a Gen 3 RX can improve the look a lot, get's done on SH Foz's all the time. Also don't be afraid to get down and dirty with fibreglass, I've done a few fibreglass jobs and it's quite easy with a home kit.

 

Plenty of options there.

Haven't done it in a while Bumpty, but just remember it being a lot easier than I thought, you couldn't fibreglass an entire bar yourself, but could add to existing bar eg. Lip etc.

If you trawl around enough you can find plenty of examples, there's also foams you can mix up and mould, some guy had a youtube vid where he did it to his GC8 for a boot lip spoiler, I tried finding it for Kong months ago but no luck. It just needs a bit of pre-planning. But wouldn't be my first choice.

Searched for TakaKaira.co.jp, it shut down, but there should be something like it around.

I just picked up one of these Hippo Sleek bars for my Lib. I'm hoping to have it on by the Christmas BBQ cruise

Them flares

[Bumpty]

Those flares are different to Nick's, ..no?

[Barbbachello]

Those look like universal bolt ons whereas mine are molded for gen 2 but don't add any clearance lol

[aekOne]

..yes

[Bumpty]

Ah okay, yours are more subtle too.
