Monaro VXR Bodykit

[5ohmustang]

In the UK is thr vxr bodykit available?

If so how much is it? I was just wondering if it is cost effe tive to buy one for a gto.

It's the HSV kit and it is definitely not cheap. In fact it is seriously expensive. Found that out when I had to replace the front bumper on mine.

The front bumper alone, is around £1,200 ($1,800) Think the entire kit, factoring in shipping, you are going to be looking at over $10,000 easily. If you want the original 19" wheels to go with it, factor in another $2,500

Basically anything with an HSV logo on it is mega money. Standard Holden parts aren't that expensive really by comparison.

Can see the prices on JHP here.

I knew jhp sold the kit but I thought the 10k price was just them overcharging for it.

Why is it so expensive?

You might want to try contacting the Monaro breakers, might be less money than JHP although not sure if they'll send overseas.

You still have the same set up costs as the Holden parts, but with a much smaller customer base. Less parts produced = more of the set up costs apportioned to each unit sold.

Thanks, the bodykit in the uk is the same price as a used gto.
