I've got a 1992 Camry and I'm interested in getting this kit for my car. I've got a couple of questions though... I spoke with Albert from Erebuni and he told me that the "bumper reinforcements" would have to be removed to install the front and back bumpers. I assume that he just meant the foam core and not the entire cross member and bumper struts, but I wanna make sure before I buy the kit. Are my Bosal cat back exhaust tips gonna match up to the rear bumper notches in the shogun kit? Is this a quality piece to put on my car? Any opinions would be greatly appreciated. (especially if you've put this kit on your car)
Well, i brought my car into the shop today to get my Shogun kit put on (style 52). I should get it back in about a week or so (the reason its taking so long is because they have to fix it where it got hit :sad: ) I will let you know how it goes after it gets on, but as of right now, i have no idea of the answers to your questions
i tried to put my front bumper on ith the reinforcement but it would go on all the way. i just think you might have to shave some of the foam core out until it fits the bumper.
MisterCool56,
the same exact kit is available through tons of different places under different names. The best price that I found was through mbautosports. Erebuni is selling the 4 piece kit for $1071.00. They wouldn't budge on the price. Mbautosports is selling the same kit for $650.00. The only problem is that they don't have the wing, so you'll have to buy that through Erebuni for $286.00.
Rice-a-roni & 92CamryGTS,
let me get this straight than... The only thing that needed to be done was shave some of the foam core off when installing the front bumper. You didn't need to remove any other part of the front bumper assembly? Did either of you have a problem with your exhaust matching up to the rear bumper notches? Rice-a-roni what exactly did they have to remove to put on the rear bumper? Did either of you guys have serious problems with the kit not fitting properly?

From what their saying yes, the shaving should work. As far as the exhaust, probably or probably not. Depending on where the exhaust was hanging it may or may not. BUT if there is a problem, I am more than sure it would be an easy fix.
Well, i got some bad new for you guys about the kit. either i got a real POS of a kit, or they are all like this. My guess is that the shogun kit is designed for the 95-96 front end, so thats why it fits on my car like cookie goes with ass. I need about $1200 dollars worth of work to get it painted and installed. This includes doing custom fiberglass work, and other sorts of crap. This does also include getting the rear bumper to fit over the bumper support, so that is a plus. All in all, its going to take them about a week to go from start to finish, and 1200 dolla of my money. :sad: I still believe its worth it, since i bought the body kit for $500 dollars.
Pretty much, if you buy it, do not be surprised if it does not fit worth a crap, and you have to do some work to get it to fit.
thats why its better to go with direct from erebuni. that way you get it from the first mold, and not a duplicate. either way you will end up having a good looking car. i got totally ripped off, i got the invader front and its going to take 350+ to get it fixed :sad:
So I should only get the kit from Erebuni cause if I buy it from another company it is not going to be an original mold? Is that why Erebuni is more expensive than the other companies that have the same kit? Has anyone actually put the kit on a 92 Camry? I don't wanna buy this thing and not have it fit.
