Thanks dutchie. I am ready to order a CF half moon (and more), but I cannot find any links to complete a sale. Any suggestions? Also, have you seen any work by the new manufacturer? The product in the picture looks fantastic but a new manufacturer could really change the quality.

Technopope, I handle all transactions for my friend Naoki, since he can't speak or write English.
If you have questions just pm or e-mail me, payment goes through paypal and waiting time after ordering is approx two weeks.
I guarantee that the products of the new manufacturer are equal to the "old" one, since the new company is closely related to that of the other one.

Serge,
Your friend has some really nice looking goodies on his site. Need to save up for some:D
Love the side skid plates and the carbon fibre. I'm sure it's a little cheaper on the shipping if you order multiple items.
Quick question; is there any way you can influence the Jp VX club to post their web in english also, so the rest of us (who don't read Japanese) could enjoy the pages too?

Serge,
Do you think Noaki could make duplicate hood insert like the cowl induction type that Rickster has? I'd buy one right away. Please advise?

Time to get that second mortgage:D

Mmm that means that I have to translate.....it's easier and more fun to use translation software, try it and be ready for some really interesting English....tip beakloss=vehicross

Sure can you send me the dimensions once more

I don't think there would be enough interest, and even if we could generate interest, he would need deposits to ensure the orders...and that's something he doesn't want.
Have a great VX 2005!
These accessories look great!
Can they be ordered matching VX paint colors?
Thanks for the help guys.
Max.
Dear Dutchie,
This is great stuff.
Can they be ordered to match the colour of the VX? Mine is Foxfire red.
Take care.
Max.

Maxw, we tried to experiment with colours, but it's almost impossible to get exactly the same colour...it's close but not perfect. Furthermore the price would go up to much, so it's better to order the unpainted products and have them painted yourself.
Dutchie..how do I contact you to get more info?
Max. :confused:

they are pretty, but they all way too expensive.
i'd do some mods for my vx myself rather than wasting money that way.
dutchie

, but they all way too expensive.
they look expensive, but it won't be cheaper if you manufacture them yourself at the same quality, actually more expensive.
dutchie,
Are you still handling transactions for your friend, Naoki?
Thanks.

Does Noaki do the chrome mirror covers?
Serton, do you have any idea who was the maker of the covers when Albert was selling them?
Joe_Black

IIRC, the chrome mirror covers and a lot of the other stuff Albert (N1) was selling came from Isuzu's domestic accessories catalog.
Anita
09/18/2006, 10:11 AM
What Joe? I never heard of that. I thought Alberts source was special made from a non-Isuzu source.
Joe_Black

The carbon stuff was custom made, but my understanding was that the chrome mirror covers and some other similar doo-dads came from Isuzu but were Japanese market only, small-run stuff and never exported. Likely items made for the 500 unit JDM-only Limited Edition VX.
But, I could very well be wrong as that was merely the understanding I had at the time. :confused:

Albert initially sold JDM parts/accessories through his sources in Asia - at some point these started to get very difficult, if not impossible to find, so he found someone in China to produce CF parts - the door thresholds and mirror covers were the first he experimented with before falling ill with SARS and dissappearing. I managed to get the wind deflectors, mirror covers and splash guards through him and they all had JDM instructions and part numbers.

stuff all looks great dutchie. Just one question...a lot of this guy's products are similar to the guy at vehicrossconcepts.com. Only his are quite a bit cheaper. Is there any difference? Are naoki's skids made of the same material or are they actualyl metal? Thanks

I don't think dutchie visits the forum anymore since he has sold his vx!
He has to travel a lot by train now.

Sorry sorry, yeah I went back to my roots and I ditched my VX in favor of a bicycle and a pair of wooden shoes!
Miss my VX though, since we don`t have mountains in good ol` cheese country, but plenty of them in Japan...
My son is driving his though.

Ok back to the questions, Naoki`s products are made of FRP and Ron`s, from ABS with each their own plusses and minuses. The difference in price is mostly cause of the fact that a second party does the manufacturing, Ron does his own work.
Here's how it works:
1-you send me the order and I verify with Naoki, about the complete price incl. shipping
2-you get my e-mail with the total costs, and if you want to proceed from there than..
3-you paypall me this amount, which I transfer into Naoki's account, minus paypall costs...
4-upon receiving I'll pass your order through to Naoki and he'll have it made and shipped, wich means that you receive your product within approx. 2 weeks, from the time I received your payment.
Sincerely,
Serge... I want one of those VX toys for my boys! Can you hook me up??
Your son is looking BIG!

I`ll ask Naoki about it Dave.
How`s your little one doing?
