S/O: AAC 323 BJ Bumper Brackets

Have you seen or heard about the AAC Bumper Brackets? Have you seen the great improvement they make to the look of your BJ Protege / Astina front bumper that has started to sag or has broken headlight clips?

Have you thought "That would be nice but ...
- I don't want to deal with overseas shipping
- Shipping one set from the US is so expensive
- I don't have PayPal."

Well, Noah (AAC) and I have done a little deal and I can supply you with AAC Bumper Brackets. Kit includes all brackets, hardware, detailed photo install guide, and limited AAC vinyl window decals.

!NO BRACKETS CURRENTLY IN STOCK!

Guys, I currently don't have any bracket sets in stock. The last lot took a while to sell so I'm not keen to get a whole new batch in at the moment. I will probably look at doing a small order in the future once there is a bit more interest in the brackets.

In the meantime, perhaps there are other AAC products that you might be interested in (see below). If so, post up in this thread or PM me and I will see what can be done :)

I will be getting an 'Aggresive Auto Culture' (AAC) email address sometime this week. This will give everyone direct contact with me and will also be something that Noah will be able to monitor as well.

A bit more information about this batch of brackets. Noah is out of the States at the moment and will be back on Wednesday. He has a box of brackets with my name on it, which he will be sending out immediately. I am hopeful that they will arrive in Brisbane before Xmas, but I cannot guarantee this.

If they arrive before Xmas, then I will be able to send them out on the Tuesday (27th December) and I imagine that they would arrive at people's doorsteps in the first week of the New Year. I might be able to arrange something with local (South-East Queensland) members over the Xmas / New Year break.

To order, just post in this thread or contact me via PM. Payment will be via bank transfer and I will supply details via PM.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Cheers,
Darryl.

Yeah, let me know if you have paid Noah yet (either by posting here or by PM).

I will add a list to the first post to keep track of who has ordered, paid, and when each set of brackets has been sent. This will keep everyone in the loop with the status of their order.

phildough 12-12-2011 01:12 PM

Put me down for a set, my passengers side is a few mm out and it will only get worse.

marcs_sp20 12-12-2011 01:29 PM

offtopic, but with now having a aus dealer of AAC products, that mean we can purchase any of his other upcoming items as well???

Well, that detail has not yet been finalised. The only other product AAC has available at the moment is the rear lateral link kit:
http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showt...-Rear-Link-Kit

But of course, Noah is developing adjustable endlinks:
http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showt...ayBar-Endlinks

And Willwood brake kits for the BJ platform:
http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showt...ege-Brake-Kits

Probably the best I can do at the moment is to suggest that you PM me with what you are interested in. If there is a reasonable amount of interest in these other items then I might be able start a thread to deal with that.

Cheers,
Darryl.

*facepalm* man i knew i should of waited another week.. just ordered these brackets the other week.. setup paypal etc and also paid WAY more due to shipping costs for 1 set.

phildough 12-12-2011 05:13 PM

Im also interested in a set of adjustable rear swaybar links to go with my 22mm progress rear sway bar.

Added you to the Bumper Fix list ;)

I assume that you mean the endlinks. If so, I will keep everyone in the loop with how things develop but I am expecting they will be available in the early part of next year.

If you mean the lateral link kit, then PM me please.

Cheers :)

Ice88 14-12-2011 02:38 PM

Yeah I originally wrote lateral link kit but will have to do it next year sometime as there's other stuff that needs doing first :)

No worries :)


UPDATE:
Noah has shipped the brackets to me. All things going reasonably well, I should have them by the 23rd :D

Orion 20-12-2011 02:39 PM

I have sent everyone that wanted one of these a PM regarding payment ;)

If you haven't already, please let me know when you intend to send funds.

Don't forget to include your address in the reply PM! :p

familiagtx 20-12-2011 06:32 PM

I'm not sure of the compatibility with the BJ-I (SR2) style bumpers :confused:

I'll direct Dan to this post and see if he has any insight into whether they will fit.

Otherwise you might just have to be a guinea pig ;)

EDIT: you could go through the installation guide and see if the bumper holes and mounting points look similar.

No idea on that one! But yeah, checking the guide vs mounting holes would be the way to go.

marcs_sp20 21-12-2011 01:21 PM

Um, I could check, seeing the laser bumper is indentical to the SR2 bumper (bar the lip obviously ;))

All Good :-)

Orion 30-12-2011 11:04 AM

Good news!!! :D

The brackets have landed in Australia and I expect to be able to pick them up in Brisbane sometime next week.

That means that I should be able to post brackets out to those that have paid by next Friday. This all depends on what happens next week but I will keep updating this thread as this progress.

Cheers, and have a Happy New Year everyone! :)

Lachlan 30-12-2011 02:31 PM

Great news! Cant wait for mine.

Ben 30-12-2011 05:47 PM

Has mine been sent? or is it in this shipment??
