Accolade. The guy said its 550 USD shipped to the sunshine coast. Then you have to add the cost of paint and fitting. I have no clue how much it would cost

Panther -
That kit looks absolutely amazing on the sexy CJ shape mate!
I'd leave the eyelids off though but that's me
Best of luck with your mods
Cheers Chris - mizta_b.

To get painted and fitted will set you beck maybe 500ish bucks.... That's gestimating though.
Lower your car first otherwise won't look that good

550USD + any import fees and any other related costs with the shipping and customs/taxes. Can be an extra 200-400AUD on top of that.
They were worth it when the aussie dollar was around 90cents, but at the moment you're probably better off getting something locally made.

I reckon that $550 price would be wrong especially seeing as shipping alone would cost heaps.
painting and fitting all of that would be more than $500.....
accolade stuff is supposed to be crap and doesnt always fit properly. Apparently alot of body shops refuse to fit them because they are such a pain in the ass....

My thoughts - 1 if you get that kit would look better with the EVO bonnet.
2- Depending on the quality of the construction job painting and fitting can reach as high as 2000, seen this on a fibreglass kit that was full of pinholes. Most panel beaters/ spraypainters don't like working on other peoples kits it would be cheaper to get them to paint inhouse.
3 - that back bumper does nothing for me.
