I was looking at their website the other day and fell in love with this body:

Problem is, I don't really know anything about their quality. Be it forming, decals, or fit of the multiple lexan parts. Anybody here had any experience with them? I really hate to experiment with a body set that will end up being around the $50 mark after shipping.

I have 2 of their Limited Edition Trueno "Lights up" versions. I was impressed with the quality.

Lexan is good quality, and they make some of the cooler and more rare bodies out there for JDM imports. I had a customer recently ordered one of those RX-3 bodies and it was quite detailed. For the money its not as bad as Yokomo bodies, but I would say go for it.

That DOES look like a cool body...I'd like to see it from all angles, though. And does it come with a decal set?

i've had a couple of abc bodies, i'd put them close if not the same quality as tamiya's bodies.
good stuff, have no fear. the decals are not as nice as tamiya's, a bit thinner.

Yes, it comes with decals. Looks like at the moment they are out of stock of this particular body. I sent an email to the "support" to find out when they planned on getting them back in and this is what I got:

I was looking for a slack-jawed head-scratching smiley, but this one will have to do instead: :?
