So July 1st is the deadline for everyone.
We need at least 5 people to get this pricing.

As for shipping, things have changed this GroupBuy. When you place your order with Kevin, most quickest way of course being calling the number below he will take your zip code and give you pricing.

Each Kit is $670 + $hipping you can call in your order to Kevin/Xaviar at 678-429-3000.

He takes Master Card, Discover, and Visa.

Be sure to call, email, PM him your complete shipping address.

If you prefer/only have paypal please send $670+$hipping+Paypals 3% to: sales@wickedweaselmotorsports.com

From the time the entire order is placed with Kaminari it will usually take anywhere from 4-6 days, maybe sooner.

Here are the other two threads about the Kaminari GB / Q&A / ETC:

It fits both, theres just a few more screws for the Gen 1...

PS: If you decide you want to, i know redgen1 wants one and he lives in NOVA with you, ask Kevin if you guys could combine shipping for somewhat of a better deal...

I'm just concerned with how the gen 1.5 kits looks on a gen 1. I know u have to use screws to hold up the front valences, but i don't want that too look bad and not sit flush. I want it to look clean and if that means wait for a true gen 1 kit to come around then thats what i'll do. If u know of anyone on here with a gen 1 with a gen 1.5 kit and has pics of the fronts installed let me know so i can check it out. If it looks good and can't tell the difference then most likely i would hop on this gb, especially since its coming up in the next week or two.

^^ It will flush. I believe you will need to make more holes.

Unbalanced,

Are they actually taking orders right now?

I am also curious of the dimensions and weight of the package. Of everything I shipped if DHL is available they have been hands down the best priced shipping method.

I assume shipping will vary by location. If we want just a shipping price should we call the number in the OP?

The kit was designed for the Gen1.5 but can fit the Gen1 with no problems, perfect filament. On the other hand, the gen 1 kit cannot fit the 1.5...

He is taking orders NOW, so call and he can answer most of all your questions on the matter.

Call him so you can get a shipping price, im not sure what they are using to ship the packages out. I know that the original shipping price was $125.

Package is 45lbs, 82"x13"x26"

Anyone have pics of a gen 1 with this or a gen 1.5 trd kit installed... The reason being is that I've heard that it doesn't sit right on the bumper. I am not trying to drop a G on the kit and paint and have gaps between or looks like its about to fall off. PLEASE post pics or links to pics. If it looks good u can chalk another up on the list.

Hmm thats weird because I have a new-in-box Gen1.5 trd kit at my house (from a Toyota dealership), and the entire box weighs in at 18lbs. Just wanna make sure you guys aren't getting ripped on shipping.

I have a Gen 1, my kit is for a 1.5 and it fits. Check out the other threads (links above) and you will see the your same concern over and over, and over and over people will say it will fit. The only difference is in the front 2 pieces. You will need a shop (or someone that knows what they are doing) to either screw them from the bottom or use something else to make it flush (again, have someone that knows what they are doing). If you need to see what it looks like, check out my sig and my cardomain page, you should find lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of pics, or refer back to the other threads and ask everybody that bought one to show you pics :)

We never stopped taking orders :D they were probably a different price if outside the GB but we are always taking orders. Of course with GBs we can get better deals, but we take orders 24x7 my friend. :wink:

check out the other threads and you'll see we do our best to avoid people getting ripped, which is why we have offered other alternatives to some members. If i remember correctly, on our last GB some southern cal peeps combined shipping to one location and then everybody picked up their kits from that one place... or maybe it was the scion tc peeps, dont remember, but if you want to research here is the link to scionlife: http://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=171330
btw, i'm not trying to contradict you man but i know my kit wasnt 18lbs, and out of curiosity, why would you have a trd kit for a gen 1.5 still in a box? if you got it from a toyota dealer that means you must've bought it months, maybe yrs ago as they discontinued the trd kit until kaminari bought it, which means you've had it in a box for months/yrs now. I mean if there is a dealer out there that still has them please let me know because they may still have Gen 1 kits and i would love to get my hands on one of them (and have Kaminari make the mold for the front balances ... seriously!).

+1 you have nothing to worry about as far as 1.5 fronts on a gen 1... I got the kit through Kevin a couple months ago and installed myself- I had no clue what the hell i was doing and it fits perfectly, anyone could install the fronts and have them look oem... you have nothing to worry about.

Bump for good guys and of course, a sick kit :)

I did get one years ago. about 3 years ago to be exact. And its still new in the box. I never put it on. The only reason I went and weighted it is because I lifted a 80lb bag of mortar today for some brick repair at my house, and when I read it was 45lbs, I thought no way was the kit half the weight of that bag. I had to go weigh it to make sure I wasn't going weak.
