240's arent like civics with 1,000 different cheap ass body kits to choose from. Quality kits like DRFT, vertex, friends are made in japan, super high quality, OEM fitment. you pay for quality. look to spend $1500+ for a complete kit, unpainted.

for DRFT kits, thats probablly the cheapest its going to get. actually that DRFT kit is on the cheap side (for an s14 kit). expect to spend at least a $1k for a good kit. maybe you can go with chargespeed/uras if you're looking for a japanese co. with cheap kits.

DRFT kits for S14s.. *yum*

Those prices aren't so "UNGODLY" Like Mikes13 said, you pay for quality and good fitment.

Yeah Bomex's stuff fits EXCELLENT. And their prices have dropped dramatically...I paid for their stuff when there were significantly priced higher.

Selling simply for the reason of being different. I cant be different if everyone and their momma can afford this kit :(
