Wowzers, so many Sonic accessories in Asia...

Unlike the other kits, which were made in Thailand, I think this one's made in China. Not sure.

so much product.

This thread is great! The amount of rice coming from overseas make me throw up in my mouth a little. Only a couple of them i'd even consider. I wish they flowed better into the original body, similar to how many of the newer Audi kits are.

 

[Eric Smit]

Well said Beastlick, but I'm still binging hard on this lip.

 

[FloSonic]

Personally I'm liking the idea of the R8 front piece and side skirts paired with the Sonic AT rear bumper. Aggresive yet classy.

there's one big underlying concern i have with the bodykits from thailand. I know the price is cheap, but how is the quality and fitment without seeing it in person?

I use to manufacture kits for scions when that was the big boom and there were people selling kits for half the price of what i sold mine for, although the fitment on the kits I made fit almost perfect, the lesser priced ones were flimsy and didn't fit well. People that went with the same looking but cheaper kit ended up spending almost double of what mine was incl paint to get the fitted and painted.

just a concern for sonic enthusiasts out there.

on my car i run the 3d carbon. all designed, developed, and made in southern california and it's urethane instead of fiberglass.

3d carbons kit is a factory Ford approved accessory for Ford's. thats a pretty sweet gurantee on fitment imho.

Agreed.
As the adage says...

"You get what you pay for."

I think the main thing that appeals to us here though is that there are many kits in Thailand that aren't available here. (granted quite a few of them are fairly tacky) It's definitely nice to have options though since the 3D Carbon one is the only one that seems to be available for the U.S. market thus far. :/ (Nothing wrong with the kit. I personally like everything but the front lip on it.)

Also, from what I've read, there are a few kits that are made out of ABS instead of Fiberglass. As you stated though, we don't know anything about how fitment is, and the fact that these are made in (that part of) Asia doesn't really help with that. lol

On the other hand, having a really unique Sonic might be worth the risk...

I guess we'll just have to wait and see... (and if we can get these darn people to reply back to us. lol. My gut tells me that they just don't understand English. haha)

In the meantime, I joined the Thai Sonic forum, and am posting there with a translator. Lets hope this works. XD

Well said Beastlick, but I'm still binging hard on this lip.

The fact that it covers the trim around the lower grill doesn't set well with me. Otherwise, it's not bad.

Upon closer inspection on the myriads of other images of this kit on the AT Facebook page and Thai Sonic forums, this particular kit actually DOESN'T cover the trim on the bottom.

I do agree though, this kinda bugs me with some of the other kits.

So far I like the Z-spec kit the best, followed by this one:
Minus the goofy panel on the side.

 

[FloSonic]

Yeah whats up with that bump anyways lol look very tacky! Now I agree about you get what you pay for, but with the right research...and right connections you can have that "one of a kind" car. I already plan on re-enforcing my body kit. I hate seeing ricers going down the road with their body kits flapping in the wind.

More pics of the Access AS1 kit:

Apparently, this kit can also be purchased from that lovebodykits.com place

I couldn't find this kit on the site, I just want to entertain finding out the price.

Does anyone hear speak Gangnam Style? Can you help me find the price?

 

[wingman]

Looks like a storm trooper.

 

[Preloader]

Yeah, it's a bit ridiculous, I'm mostly interested in the wide side effects.

 

[Macehammer]

Doesn't look like the front will work with RS fogs.

lmao the website is in Thai, not Korean.

According to the link I posted, the full widebody kit is 22,900 Baht, which is roughly $768.59 USD.

"The AS1.
Includes (in skirt round 11 pieces).
- A one-piece front skirt.
- A two-piece side skirts.
- A one-piece rear skirt with the LED.
- Bulging wheel - the LR 6 pieces.
- One-piece rear spoiler.
Price is set at 22,900 baht

2k paint dries slowly and successfully installed. The one-year warranty.
Club 10%."

I think the price includes paint, but Google Translator is a little wonky. lol
Our main issue right now is finding someone that's willing to ship to the U.S.

I've been talking to the forum people but it's a little hard with broken English and Google Translator. lol

This thread is awesome!! I love a lot of the kits coming out of Thailand too. I too am using google translator to try to understand what's up with the links. Great work Thaifight-R!! Have you heard anything from your emails and or Thai postings? Hopefully when I get back state side the availability will be there.

Thanks! ^_^

Sadly, I haven't had any luck yet.

In the meantime, I noticed that AT Autosport made/ is making 2 new kits!

They made the Z-Spec kit for the Sedan:

and my new personal favorite:

Looks like the TJinn replica "Racing front bumper" but with carbon fiber, and a side skirt piece. Super ultra mega WANT!

Again, I got this from the AT Autosport FB page:

Hopefully we can get some better luck in communicating with them. Gosh I want this kit really badly now. haha
