Hey,
Busselton is in the lower south West of Australia which is about a 3hr drive from Perth.

anyway got a reply back from Hyundai Aus:
Further to your recent enquiry, I would like to advise that the UK is a
very different market, as is every country, hence they would have their own
requirements as do we.

The Australian i30 SR which includes mag wheels, side skirts and rear
spoiler is only sold in Australia.  We in Australia currently do not have
the i30 wagon. I have not heard of any cases where the side skirts have
fallen off, but they can be difficult to install.

hope this helps everyone whose been reading this but i reckon its a load of crap as Australia has nearly or about the some amount of people with Hyundai i30's. Hence we could have what the uk has with the body kit. australia's body kit is shite it only has the side skirts and spoiler.

well anyway

Hi Ash,  Thanks for the update.
Not much of a reply from Hyundai.
Still no wiser as to what the hell is going on with your body kit!

Hi ash,

did you managed to find out the exact deal? curious to find out.

i did some searching too on the other kit (M+S or MS), which is made from fiberglass, it cost about the same around 1.2k...

I believe I've mentioned this earlier somewhere....

The bodykit has been recalled by Hyundai Australia, apparently due to paint/glue issues.   It's currently being redesigned, and should be available in December.

This was confirmed to me directly by the Australian Hyundai product manager.

The bodykit comprises of front, read, and side skirts - the spoiler is an additional cost.  I'm led to believe that around $1500 will have it painted and fitted to your car.

I have one on order, and will be notified when it's ready - I'll post in here to let you guys know.

Rgds
Simon

Now that looks nice - I have an SLX in Shine Red and am also looking for body mods - Do you have a contact you could share for purchasing from Korea? - Also were they good to deal with?

Hi guys: The picture has been taken in camberra, I went there for the long weekend. I've purchased the front and rear skirt from Korea here is the link
http://www.auto-show.co.kr/en/front/sho ... e=00000048
I made my order with a guy call Bruce Hong. he told me the price and I paid via paypal. I was very lucky to purchased the body kit before the AU dollar droped.
It took 2 1/2 week to get it.
The front black light got it from here: http://www.koreanautoimports.com/store/ ... 7af5da58d2
 
Have a nice day guys
