thanks for info Van, I checked Speedalliance.com, but no info on Vertex body kit, not even a price, so I'll just be patient for time being. And I'm also going to Japan in Dec. so I'll check to see if anything interesting is overthere. I was hoping to check that JDM navigational monitor for my xB...I wonder if I can pick that up as used..hmm....

I don't want this to be seen as commercial, but I am in charge of importing items from Car Make T&E for Speed Alliance. Car Make T&E is the maker of VERTEX and other brands.

I won't discuss prices and we actually don't carry anything that will directly work on your cars, but here is some information that you may find useful.

For information on VERTEX aero kits, please go to www.vertexaerokits.com.

The brand of the kit that Car Make T&E makes for the bB is actually not VERTEX. Rather, it is under their ISM line along with kits for the Vitz, Honda Fit, Toyota Estima, Toyota Noah and Voxy, and Nissan March.

The main reason that the bB aero kit won't work on the US xB is the difference in the length of the rear bumper. The ISM kit is a "half" kit. That means that it is half lip spoilers (chin spoilers). If the parts were full bumper replacements, it would work. We have not imported any of these kits and so have not tried fitting them to US cars. I don't actually even know if the front lip spoiler will fit the US car. I imagine the side skirts will...

In order to bring any of these kits over, we would need to bring a minimum of three full kits. With the uncertainty of fitment, you can see why no one in the US will probably ever have one of these kits. If fitment is not a concern to anyone, we can import them.

Thank you,
Jonathan Carson

People will buy them, even if they have to fabricate them to fit the USDM bumper.

Thanks for the info Scott

Someone had sent me the link for that company "Avanzare"

Iwas looking for a daily driver and have always been a big fan of toyota

Right now i drive a GS400 supercharged but, with the way Gas is i need something a little more pratical.

After modding that, I dont think i can drive any car stock

me likey AME wheels. I may look into that company for my next set of blings.
as for Vertex ISM, no use buying that lip kit if you have to spend that much money to modify the front and rear lips to fit the xB. The front bumper of our cars is 6 cm longer than JDM bB's. Of course their is the issue of license plate placement on the rear bumper.

reminds me of a toned down Spirits kit (the front bumper doesn't stick out as much and the nose drops down at a smoother angle).

on the fabulous kit you have to remove the front bumper core to install the kit and you have to modify the kit a lil bit to properly fit it
