to put it simply, on your stock front and rear bumpers, no overseas lip kits will fit. You'd need a plastics/fiberglass workshop to extend and reshape the sides of the lips as they will not be long enough to reach the wheel wells.

Replacement bumpers will fit, but may require the removal of the metal bumper brace that sits in there.

so my only viable alternative (I don't like either scenario you described) is Kaminari? blah.

Essentially, yes.. Unless you get the smaller OEM bumpers from another country, if they can fit, then you can use any lip kit you want. I think that is what adriaan is looking to do

I would really appreciate some help in figuring out if mexi-yarii dimensions are any different from a Vitz. What sort of measurements should I start taking and where? I'm not sure if I can get this kind of info at the dealership, but I'll give them a call tomorrow and check anyways.

BTW, I'm leaning towards the Ings or (even Burnouts)... those things look hot as hell.

show us some pictures of your car, the best way to see is to look at the bumper right in front of the headlights, and the "step" on the rear bumper.

Thomas can you get a price on the OEM RS front and rear bumpers? Also will need the jdm front re-bar. I also need to know whether or not they come with the fog ligths already and if we can use our stock OEM front fogs for the RS bumper? Let me know mang! Me wants more goodies!

Thomas?

Just to chime in again I think I may be the only person who's shipped a kit from Thailand (correct me if Im wrong).
I purchased the kit on the premise of re-selling more but it all fell through, but thats a another story.
There are other "cheaper" alternatives to those mentioned above.
The shipping is a killer, half the total cost is shipping if its by air and per kit.
Like its been mentioned the only piece which will require no mods are the side skirts. The front requires very little, its tight but works. The rear is a whole different animal, the shape is totally different. Personally I wouldnt bother with rear lips, spend the dough youll undoubtedly spend getting the rear to fit and buy a whole new JDM bumper.

The prices are insane for this stuff, youll spend about 1/3 the total price of the car buying/shipping/fitting and painting this stuff....

Im another for 'cheap'

Thomas, please take a look at my garage. I took some quick snaps of the front and rear bumpers and reduced them a bit. Let me know if you need any other pictures. Thx bro!
