Knight racer

Just wondering if knight racer stuff (I'm after the oem spats and a RMM/ww front lip) is pretty good fitment?

Also I was sure they sold the RMM front lip but I can't find it on their website? Anyone know if they still do them?

its fibreglass and unless its expensive its all sheet mate.... look on tradr application thread i wouldnt

Don't be under the impression its just them that are a bad company. Most fibreglass after market kits require some modfications.

Mitchell had an AWEFUL job of fitment on his doluck bonnet, and ended up selling it due to not being able to get it fit. And that wasn't a knight racer product.

To be fair I've not dealt with knight racer. But pretty much 9 out of 10 comments related to the customer services rather than fitment.

Most fibreglass components can be made to fit with enough work, it's just if your prepared to give it some time and get it right. I bought an item recently and I had to get some major work on it done to suit my liking, but in the end its worth it. So you take your gamble.

Ok many thanks, any idea on where else to get one of the rmm/ww front lips?

Unfortunately I don't have the budget for a urithane one so I'll have to settle for a fibreglass one!

My trial rear bumper wasn't a to bad fit from them

I bought trail rear, TRD rear wing and ridox front bumper and skirts from Knight Racer and Rob Mitchell fitted them. He said that it was all pretty good, needed some work to fit but he was happy. I have heard of problems with after sales service but I didn't need to bother them. They delivered on time and did what I thought was a reasonable deal for the whole package.

If you want the lip to fit, buy it from MVP, its the real thing, fits perfectly and is durable as its plastic, not fibreglass.

As they always say you get what you pay for.

rich

As said all fibreglass bodykits need work to fit, my Ridox stuff from Whifbitz were a good fit, but still needed work. I got a TRD spoiler from Knightracer a couple of years ago and it was a perfect fit. Just be prepared to spend a bit to get it perfect...

imo these are very good but still need work for that perfect fit,but a very good starting point

My car is at Knight racer at the moment having a trial rear fitted. There has been a few hiccups but that was mainly down to the courier used initially (two deliveries and two damaged in transit). Albert offered to fit it and the only delay has been the bank holiday and a problem with the diffuser having to be redone. I'm picking it up tomorrow so will see how good it is (I have some photo's Albert sent me of a couple of stages during fitting/prep which look ok to me, there's also another supra next to it having skirts fitted) My experience with customer service so far has been positive and the quality looks fine, as people have said there's always some work to be done to get it perfect wherever you get it from. I know there is some people who have had bad experiences but as you can see there is also good ones as well. I might need to update this when I pick my car up but up to now, all good!

one off?

will do, I was a bit worried at the start, I'll put some pictures up too if anyone's interested

what you having done on yours?

your car is in the background to some of my pics too!!

I got a TS front, Varis Side Skirts and a TRD Spoiler from them, The fit was brilliant but that was over 5 years ago.......... I miss her.

I know Knight Racer have got a bit of a rep lately but i must admit, i got my old Bomex bumper from them and it fitted great.

Just got some Skirts and another Bomex bumper from them last month which is in the bodyshop getting painted now so i'll report how they found fitting this one.

Hopefully photos attached. Car back and looking good. Fitment and finish pretty good, I did have a few hiccups with the lacquer so it took longer than planned, but customer service from Albert and Mark has been good throughout. I have had to spend all day cleaning the car inside and out and did expect them to do this before I collected so that was only disappointment thing. I certainly didn't have the experience some have had and only thing that would prevent me using them again is the distance. Hope that helps anyone thinking of using Knightracer

I wouldn't risk it myself, too many horror stories.

Thats mine there next to yours!!

cant wait to see it in the flesh

Thread revival!

I've searched high and low to find some oem spats, and came up with nothing, so I've taken a punt and bought the knight racer spats, firstly, I went to collect them (as they're about 40 mins from me), seems like a well represented company, and the staff were very friendly.

Bought the spats (which were the last two) and drove home. I tried them straight away and found that the top wasnt a great fit so i called them.

They are having a new set made, and will be with me tuesday! And I can keep the old ones.

Now that is what I call customer service (considering the parts were only £50)!

I just hope these are a better fit! I will report back when I have them!

My Ridox kit was a good fit

They need change their makers, the parts are really poor fitment, the guys seem great but be honest the trd wing I tried was way out even the ones they had were the same.

It Might be worth people putting down what year they got their bits from KR. Back when I got mine KR were a well respected company and I didn't hear a bad word said about them. Not sure what they are doing differently these days?

I got my bits back in 2006 - Good fit.
