Daihatsu Microbus

In Japan, there is a micro-subcompact class of cars known as "keijidosha," or simply, "K." Under current regulations their engine size is restricted to 660cc, and their appeal in this land of super expensive gasoline and narrow roads is fairly obvious. They are also cheaper than standard size cars, so it cracks me up when I see a lot of money put into their modification. This microbus mod has been getting more and more popular recently, and on my island alone, I have seen red, orange, yellow, black, tan, and lime green versions of it.

Would you know of a website where I can purchase such a kit for a Daihatsu Hijet? I know they're funkylookin gbut I'm also a VW enthusiast and these things will rock the local (Philippine) car scene as soon as someone shows up at a car show with one.
