Wald Body Kit

[spookie]

How about the Wald kit? Do anyone know about the quality of this kit because I´d like to import that to Germany, it is totally rare here

[jnolte]

my freind had WALD kit for his Lexus. Fitment and quality was number 1

[spookie]

Are shipment costs from 320 US Dollars ok for the shipment from US to Germany? Sorry, but I don´t know anything about those prices

[nokia8860]

seems ok. I once paid 200 to ship a bodykit from hawaii to san francisco.

[xstream]

how much is the full bodykits cost for W202? thanx

[spookie]

Good question, 2 months ago I see the kit at www.autoblz.com for 700 US Dollars, but when I look now I don´t see it. Any other company available?

autoblz is replica kit, wont fit as well but is cheaper, so its a trade off. Cheaper kit but harder to fit so more money at the body shop, you decide

[xstream]

that's true. but i ask iun the bodyshop the original is cost about $1600, and i think is too expensive for it. do you guys have any idea, any place selling chepear than that??

[spookie]

Oh shit, replica, good to know that now.

Wow 1600 Dollars is a lot of money, with this costs I can buy the AMG kit in Germany :rolleyes:

imo Wald kit is cooler than AMG kit but it matters on oyur own opinion and where you are coming form i guess :p

[spookie]

Most of the young drivers in Germany wants ´the AMG kit, its too normal - except you have a real AMG. Thats the reason why I´d like to have a another design.

i liked wald a lot before now i like it but not more than amg kit..reason is that wald is too round of a body kit, and our cars are way boxy for it..so it really does not match all that good...on a newer C class i like very much

the car that you are displaying is beling sold pieces by pieces? i ask about the bodykits? and he selling $1000 and he wants your orginal bumper to be exchange? So i guess, its the same like buying a new Wald bodykits.

ken..i know someone who is interested in your C36 kit...let me know if you're serious in selling it...:D

[autoblz]

replica kits is all about fitment problem
Problem face = minor modifiaction or heavy modification
there are some hidden cost for replica kits

are you saying that there are hidden costs in the replica kits you make? ;)

[autoblz]

there will be charges for you to install thats for sure
it depend partly on the shipping
you guys need to remember that the kits are shipped via Seafreight
and it takes like nearly 1 month in the deep sea
the chances of the kits to get expand and contract are high
Cause it is Fiber material hence there is a chance of the kits to be off.

However if you install in the bodyshop which expertise on FRP
i think that would be easy, cause the kits will need minor modification for the fitment.

[c_lee]

Ken I emailed you about your kit. check e-mail pls...

interested.

wald is located in osaka, japan and they sell it for $800 US.
due to shipping difficulties, i purchased my wald kit from kartoyz unlimited in fremont, ca (talk to art) for $1600 including shipping to seattle.
apparently, the kit is manufactued in osaka, only sold as a whole, and then sent to US distributors. total wait was about a month for delivery but comes with diagrams and all necessary hardware. check out www.waldusa.com

do you have any pics? how's the fitment/ quality? did u also get the wald exhaust as well?

[c_lee]

ya i got quoted 1600 today too from wheelexperts. but its 1600 plus 250 to shipped to LA. But if they do really sale for $800US, that crazy how much they make in profit!!!! When I asked for a discount they said the margin is super slim...I really don't think shipping from japan to the US is $500-$700. Craziness...

solodough, do you have the contact info for the person you bought kit from?

thanks

HEY GUYS, JUST WANTED TO SHARE..

i found a store that will sell the authentic wald to you for $1450. Its the cheapest that i've been able to find thus far!

their site is http://www.carrozzeriadesign.com/

i think i'm going to go for it. I haven't been able to find anything cheaper in the US.

[xstream]

is it $1450 including shipping??? and is it orginal and unpainted?

[KenzBenz]

original, unpainted, shipping not included most likely.

[c_lee]

100 bucks additional for shipping.

But he said that he can go lower and work something out if we can get 5 confirmed buyers.

YES THEY ARE ALL AUTHENTIC AND READ FOR PAINT (UNPAINTED)

[harlock]

wald kit is nice

[autoblz]

i think it cost like that
cause japan free trade service for port is increasing and increasing for export

The pricing that you get for the shipping is quite fair i think
cause i have import some stuff on japan
and the price of shipping is as high as yours
