Default BodyKit Coming Soon

Hey GuYs I have a company willing to work with us to get us a body kit made. The company is API Motoring in Cypress,Ca. I know these guys very well and have work with them and for them. They are recongize for installing STS rear mounted turbos on Vettes and Mustangs. They are even thinkin about doing sumthing like that for the crossfire as well. Heres the problem I am currently stationed in Hawaii and cannot get me car there to start the process of them makin a body kit. So I am askin anyone in the SoCal area or LA area if they can loan their car to start the process on this body kit. The car will need to be there for about a week. Attached is the picture of the bodykit that we liked and want to produce. I am not sure on the price yet but would like to know who is all interested in it. For the person who can drop their car off give the owner a call an setup a time to drop off your vehicle. The Owners name is Gavin and the shop number is 714-229-0880. Thanx

Nice. But that front end is very low and belongs on the track. It will be toast the first hump or dip in the city streets.

I like the front, but the sideskirts could be a lil more subtle. They look a lil ricer to me. I've always liked subtle lipkits the best.

As of right now we want to leave the rear bumper as is. We have discussed about doing the rear bumper with the mopar diffusers as a one piece but right now just the front bumper and side skirts. I know there are people in Cali with these cars lets make this happen.

voyager, you don't want to hear what they had to say...and their price was rediculous...I have crafted an idea, waiting on my junk yard friend to get in the rt wreck, which may take awhile...but I am hell bent on producing my own...but I would try the AMG skirts or consider Alexs idea...would like to keep it less than a grand...

That's because they didn't make it to look like the artist's concept.

That's too bad: in the artist's rendering that front end looked great because it made the car look meaner (I always thought our front end wasn't agressive enough), but the actual unit makes the car look like a damned smiley face.
