Question Recommendations for Toyota MR2 Spyder (2002) Body Kit Vendor?

Hi guys,
I've only been focused on my FR-S so I have basically next to nothing on information regarding older Toyotas and which vendors still have kits available.

My sister's MR2 Spyder was damaged in the front (front bumper and part of the hood is scratched due to hitting another car) and she thought it would be a good time to replace it and get a body kit. Are there any great vendors that still make kits for that model that are trust worthy?

We were thinking of doing a body kit + a carbon fiber hood.

Any suggestions or thoughts would be appreciated!

-Gi

Duraflex? Their bumper looks very good, and their prices are not that bad. I'm planning on getting their spoiler sometime.

Duraflex is cheap but I have heard that their quality and fit is not the best so you pay extra to get everything to fit properly.

There are still a lot of vendors in japan that make kits and aero parts but the shipping prices are high. japanparts.com has an extensive list of those kits and Nigel from this forum may be able to help get them over here.

VIS makes some parts and the quality is said to be superior to Duraflex but they are more expensive.

Check eBay. Search under Toyota MR2 Spyder and Toyota MR-S.

That is the Luxurypart kit. It is pretty much a full conversion and the guy is from Thailand. It is an amazing look.

I've had great luck with Shine Auto Project on my past RX7's... there pretty limited in the mr2 department. Though you may find junkyard replacement parts plus small lip/gfx kit would look nice.

I really like the one above but, I've never been fond of the MR-2's lines... that and the $8k+ price tag.
