Hey Tony, how've you been? I finally tracked down the Z51 bars to match your springs, but they mis-shipped me a 24mm rear instead of the 26mm, so I'm mucking around getting that corrected now.
Looks like $2400 is for the whole kit, including the rear spoiler. If I'm reading this correctly, the front/rear caps are $1230 & sides are $662.
I've never been a fan of body mods for the C4, but this kit looks reasonably well-executed. Timpo has one bad-azz looking ride there.

These are the prices...
Front bumper: 136,500 yen (approx $1,228)
Side Skirts: 73,500 yen (approx $662)
Rear bumper cover: 73,500 yen (approx $662)
+ shipping, import duties, etc.
I'd suggest you guys contacting some retailers like Autobacs in Japan. They will normally give you a bit of discount. If you buy them directly from manufacture, you won't get any discount.
Autobacs USA might be able to help you out too. http://www.autobacsusa.com/

Good to hear from you. Sorry to hear about the bar mix up, the wait will be worth it. You're right about the kit, looks real good and the price is not bad if it's not an arm and leg to get it shipped to the US. I'm waiting to hear back from a company in Calif. that can get the kit.
My car is about ready to bolt the body back together after the paint job, but I'll wait and do the kit if I can get it before the weather breaks. I'll keep you posted
Have a good holiday
Tony

for brand new ones, I guess you would have to ask the dealer...

that hood is out of production and you can no longer get it.
the hood was made by carbon fiber and the price was 367,500yen(approx $3,303) for that price, I think you can find something similar or better one.

some updates
ok guys, I just called BSM and they said although they have never exported overseas, they are willing to ship to the USA. 
They told me they can't figure out the shipping cost until they know where you are, what state, etc. (or if you want to pick it up at the terminal, etc)
From what they told me, there might be a possibility of saving some shipping cost if you guys can group buy. (I am not sure if this is going to work, since all of you are from different locations)
They told me they will ship the kit with wooden box thingy(???) instead of cardboard box.
(btw if you can speak Japanese or have friends who can speak Japanese, you can contact them: 01181-45-594-1193)

That is the best looking body kit I've seen short of the big money Callaway aerobody.
Does the rear bumper cover replace the existing piece or does it bond onto the lower half? Anyone?
