quality could be the factor there. not sure about them, ive heard good things but nothing about their quality that would give a justification for high prices. also, they are in austria, dont know if they have production facility here in the states.

but i must say, that nose is ugly. it sticks out waaaaay too far. the sides and rear are cool, but no thanx on that front.
i got a 90 pgt...but wish it was a mx-3 bp-t!

imported body kits are always more money. For the cougar we had the same thing with the No Limit Tuning and Stoffler kits. It's cool to have something rare but I don't know about spending that kind of money.

Just in the last year US body kit prices have come down so much. $500 kits seem to be the norm now. When I first got my cougar I bought a bumper from Andy's Autosport and with shipping it was over $400
