Grip Tuning Body Kit at Carlisle

I was at Carlisle this weekend and saw a body kit that will be coming out for our cars within the next couple months. Is made out of Polyurethane and uses all stock mounts. Price will go for $1300 from what they told me. Here are some pictures










The tailights they used the Niteshade

it looks very stockish to me. but thats something most people want to stick with. so i think this will sell well.

mines coming along excellent. some have visited the shop and got to see it first hand. as far as exterior - there is not much left except little things like lighting, mesh etc. the interior carpet is swapped and dash and rear deck are in. we have about 12 days to get the seats, door panels, headliner, and trunk finished as well as everything wired up. in the mean time we are waiting for a double decker trailor to be delivered from out west so we can load the probe and my car in for HIN AC. i think even if we dont finish in time im still going to take it ....i cant miss another huge show especially after seeing HIN Boston and knowing i could have placed. IT KILLS me.

no new pics right now. the others werent supposed to be posted but i was too excited ...lol

Yeah that car went into my dads dealership 3 weeks ago had a bad cat. I don't like it much it was at my house for a few days. Stock ss's look way better.

yeah the only part i liked about that kit is the side skirts. but 1300 is freaking crazy for that kit. They said in 2 weeks or something they will be available.

I could do so much for $1300, but getting a laugh out of that body kit and rims cost me nothing.

That's kinda what I was thinking...of course without the SS/SC spoiler it might totally destroy the look/flow of the kit. I also agree with Mercury, I can't stand those rims!

But I still like Grip. If you were to put the grip front on this car with the side vents on the front bumper. use these side skirts (which are customized from another car) and if grip made a rear bumper with a center exhaust I would be ordering that. I the grip front look as others do but the rest of it is not putting out enough wow factor for me.

I think it flows and almost perfectly. This is a custom kit! he took a drift 2 bumber and then side skirts from a cavalier and the vent was made. truly the most wow factor I have seen out any other body kit I have seen. it actually looks fast and not plain. other kits mimick the factory SS areo effects too much. the Garvana rear bumper is nice for the vents on the side. just the rear is to plain looking.
