Angry Website problems?

Im in search of a Trial R body kit and by searching the forms ive heard that AFS Motorsports has them and that the trial website has them. When I go to www.afsmotorsports.com I end up at onlinemalls.com. I cant find a link or anything that has anything to do with afs motorsports. I once found a link to the trial website, but it ended up with a htp 404 error message. could tell me how to fix these problems or give me a link to a site that sells the trial r body kit?
Thanks

The only way to fix that link is to put that company back in business.

No clue, I've never shopped for body kits. Just wanted to give you the heads up on why the website is probably down.

Thanks for the headsup.
Im just really passionate about the trial body kit and its one of the last steps to my project, a project that has taken a lot longer than it should have. Sorry if i got pushy.

You weren't pushy. I just don't have your answer, but others will. Try the Interior, Exterior, and Lighting forum.

I didn't find anything after a quick search using Google. Here's a Trial Try-R kit for the later '96 through '00 cars, but I have never heard of the company that sells it. Buyer beware...

I searched for information on AFS Motorsports and found that they probably closed for business before August of 2004. There were reported problems in the last few months before they closed about some orders not being fulfilled and messages ignored.

I've never been in the market for body kits or pieces so I haven't any idea on where to find stuff like that.

I just tried the vivid racing site. Believe it or not, they actually have a "Trial" catagory for impreza body kits, yet, once you click on the link it says "There are no products to list in this catagory"..... crummy

That link for the trial try-r
thanks, that is very close to the kit im looking for, but i only need a 4 piece. plus, to spend more on a kit then the car itself is ludacris. Well, for me it is. I NEED a kit because the original bumbers were damaged and since i will be replacing them, i decided to make it look a little sportier. The original didnt have spaces for rally (fog) lights plus the look is just eh, not wow. So you understand.

Thanks for help

Try www.takakaira.com and www.japanparts.com They're expensive now since the yen is strong.

Thanks for the links

Unfortunately JapanParts only has kits for the wrx

The other site has lots and lots of kits, but i dont understand what it all means.
Under the seperate companies they list the cars it can fit on. I know that a 94 impreza cannot take a wrx kit, but there are some codes i dont understand. What is an Impreza GD#, Impreza GC8, Impreza GDB, Impreza GGA, Impreza GGB, and Impreza GF8?

All i know about my cars model is that it is an Impreza L 1994.
And if anyone is EXTREMELY bored and wants to find me all body kits aplicable to the 94, go for it, but i think ive found the most of em. (Veilside, E990, E105, E197, C-Speed, Demon, Type-S, and CWS) If theres anymore out there, let me know.

Here's one thread on the codes I found in the General forum using Search keywords 'chassis' and 'code'.

Thanks for the chasis link. I shoulda checked that myself. One question regarding that though. I believe i have a GC* cause i have a '94 impreza L 4 door sedan. but heres the question. the number that replaces the * depends on the engine. Im swapping out a EJ18 and putting in a EJ22t from a turbo legacy. so do look for a GC2 (impreza sedan EJ18) or GC4 (impreza sedan EJ22)? I appreciate you putting up with me since im trying to learn my way around subarus
