Be interesting to know...

hope you have extensive fabrication skills because you'll need them to get a flip front fiberglass to hold up to street use and look good too

not for a novice!!!!

I've got the US Body and am very happy with it. Like has been stated before, where ever you get it from, it's going to take a lot of work to get them fitted and prepped for paint.
