Styling FX are they still going

[nitric4k]

i have read they have changed names but does anyone know what name they have changed to or have they stopped trading altogether?

reason been is i know there border bumper was a good fit and i am in need of a bumper thats a good fit

i have searched without joy on here regarding a good fitting border bumper

or if anyone knows who styling fx sold there molds to great stuff

i read though pretty much every post that mentions replikits fit even since they moved there stuff to the uk and according to people there is still fitting problems

that was before I tried to fit my skirts today I got from them, they are not a very good fit, luckly they were not to bad..they had also forgot to drill a hole in one of the tabs, and the winglets are completly out of shape. I was quite disapointed.

not worth the money IMO

I've had a replikit border front and it WASN'T a good fit either, i'd try find somewhere else tbh

[nitric4k]

what were the fitting problems with the replikit bumpers?

im goin to styling fx in a few weeks to get a few kits i hope there still goin lol

i know there stuff is a great fit because 3/4years ago they had my mr2 in for a month or so, they got diffrent kits and fitted them to my car modded them to fit properly then made the moulds to reproduce actual kits thet fit an i got minepretty cheap for helping them out

not sure if they have changed there name but the guys know there stuff they can make anything. around here every 1 had a kitted car but not anymore so i hope there still goin

tell him andy with the white veilside mr2 they did reccomended you , i might get a discount lol

[nitric4k]

don get there new details like company name, website address etc and postthem up

theres been plenty of threads wondering where styling fx vanished too

[don young]

will post as soon as i get them , i know they moved pemises , but still in the same industrail estate . i hope the are still trading , i dont think other bodykit makers like them to much because they buy the kits and fix them and make moulds to reproduce them.

i even witnessed them taking dlivery of a kit from a certain place and when it was unwrapped the bumper had a hole in it, jst like as if it had been hit with a hammer. he told me it happens alot.

any kit my dad has fitted in his bodyshop was always from them, the only time the kit didnt bolt on was a corsa that was a cat c and wasnt perfectly straight

...They offer the same guarantee that most suppliers do last time I checked. Anyone who offers a GURANTEE FIT these days is simply stupid, it doesn't exist unless they have your car in the shop and are fitting it for you in a deal. Nobody spends enough on molds to ensure consistency and maintains cost -effectiveness.

Pays your money and takes your choice, Rogue have sold me the best fitting stuff so far TBH which is RMG / RGM (can never remember). I'm still on the lok out for a bolt on BOMEX bumper myself though.

...And I've ordered stuff from the supposed "god" of MR2 kits and it was a million miles out from a fit compared to Rogues stuff

i have seen 2 of styling fx bumpers veilside my own, and spittinflames border front bumper both were a pretty much bolt on fit

[don young]

as above but more than 4 , when i picked the kit i wanted them to fit to mine they mixed n matched till i was happy , didnt even need bolted on , got the veilside front and rear and border skirts.

i dont see how a bolt on fit is stupid , toyota made all the cars the same didnt they ??? also seen with my own eyes , working in my dads spray shop , pick the kit up , fit it and prep for paint, not just mr2s all chav cars aswell lol

[nitric4k]

ill get contact details and tell him to get on here cause i reckon it save folks alot of hassel with cheap ebay copys , when ye can have good copys instead lol

[redmr89]

my undesrtanding of bodykits is they never fit perfect first time. they always need fettling . hence the " bodyshop will need to fit " statement. im no expert on grp but surely it does shrink/warp on molding and may need adjusting...

[nitric4k]

is this the estate styling fx used be on don??? and does the name raymond ring any bells?
