    wouldnt matter if the engine or any part of the car is fully stock, with a bodykit like that you would get cop attention.

    what price are they looking for? or is it your car and looking to sell it?

    no its a car my mate is looking at buying, the bloke wants 4000 and we offered him 3500 and he is thinking bout it, but i think its to much, but then u gotta think the kit is worth 1000, and i know the steering wheel cost him 250 and then the stereo cost bout 800, and the last few services and parts fixing ect aparently he has receipts showing he spent like 2000 in the last 8 months, cause when he brought it it was rough and now he has got it running perfect

    $4,000 for something with that many km's on the clock is a bit rich...especially if its stock.. Thats my 2 cents anyway. $3,000 perhaps?

    $3500 for a VN with a kit are you crazy?

    I got $3200 for my vp calais. With a full respray a month before, and an $700 stereo. (Head unit, amp and 6" rears)

    Your getting ripped. Don't pay extra money for mods especially not cosmetic ones. The respray added about $500 to the value of my car and it looked like crap before it.

    Be careful where u get the VY kit from...alot of them are cheap moulds with large gaps at the moment...hard to find a good mould, unlike with the VX kit
