ATTENTION: New Body Kit Possible

omat5e1 · Post by **omat5e1** » Fri Jul 22, 2005 1:15 am

I've been researching body kits for the Vibe, and so far, have come up a bit short. I really like the Psychovibe / Aerogear body kit, but honestly, I think it's a bit expensive, and I think the Vibe community could use some alternative options. To that end, I've been contacting several companies that might be interested in making a custom body kit. I got a response from Extreme Dimensions saying that if enough people are interested, they'd put one together. Pesonally, I'm not very good at designing a body kit, but if there's anybody that has any ideas, or any body kits for other vehicles that you think would look good on a Vibe, please post pictures, and we can decide on one. Then, if enough people are interested, we can get a new body kit made.I'm currently waiting for a response from Extreme Dimensions about how many people they'd require for a body kit. As soon as I hear back, I'll post here.

I'd try and get them to make something close to the GT-R kit that seems to have a lot of intrest !!

id like to see something dramatic on the rear bumper, straighten it out almost to square but keeping the lines of the car trueas for the front bumper, i want to see something going on infront, a new grill design or something, focus more on the front and middle of the grill rather than fog light accents

If you have a link to some pictures of the GT-R kit, I'll see if it's possible...

Google search Pontiac Vibe GT-R and you'll see many pics of this famous Vibe. Or check Genvibe's own gallery for the photos.

I agree, A GT-R body kit would be excellent. If it ever gets done, put me down for one! I would also like to see another kit for 03-04 users, I like my grill! I don't like the 05's and thats why I don't want the psycho kit.

Awesome artwork! Can you build it too?

It seems that the GT-R body kit is getting the most interest, so I'll send a message including pictures and see what they say. As soon as I hear back, I'll let everyone know...

i agree with tecton about the grill. as for the style i wouldn't mind seeing a evo style with the oversized fog lights. i have always been a fan of those kits! put something going on in the rear right now its kinda boring. i also don't like the "bumps" on the rear bumper

meistees · Post by **meistees** » Sat Jul 23, 2005 1:10 am

i dig the front and the hood too

I really like the way you incorperated the little Diamond like extrusions on the body kit, it is a theme that the Vibe has that gives it good aggressive styling. BTW I could do drawings in CAD if you would like, you just have to give me dimensions when your done (2D of course, I'm not yet that skilled in 3D ).Edit: nevermind, my copy of AutoCad doesn't work on Windows XP for some reason

omat5e1 · Post by **omat5e1** » Sun Jul 24, 2005 12:54 am

It'll definitely be available for 03-04 Vibes. If not, I won't be getting one. Who would prefer something more aggressive, like NascarXprt's drawings, versus the GT-R kit? Personally, I'm leaning more towards NascarXprt's stuff, because I don't think the GT-R looks like it has a minimalist body kit if anything. As long as I'm going to be paying for a body kit, I'd like it to stand out.In the spirit of democracy, can we at least have a vote between the 2 options, either GT-R, or "something more aggressive"?My vote: Something More Aggressive

Mr. Poopypants · Post by **Mr. Poopypants** » Sun Jul 24, 2005 2:43 am

I would still prefer the GT-R kit. The EVO is OK, but the GT-R kit would sell through the roof here.

McVibe · Post by **McVibe** » Sun Jul 24, 2005 2:54 am

I would like to see a mesh opening in the rear of the new kit, not just smooth like all the other kits...

Emerica13 · Post by **Emerica13** » Sun Jul 24, 2005 4:08 am

Dear God, please no evo kit...the one from Nascarxprt (sp? ) without fog lights looks alright, but it looks a little excessve IMO. I vote for the GT-R style kit witha little more aggressiveness

Raivis · Post by **Raivis** » Sun Jul 24, 2005 10:00 am

what are the peices coming from where the fogs are now???

NascarXprt · Post by **NascarXprt** » Sun Jul 24, 2005 2:33 pm

thats exactly it adjustable struts for the front spoiler. and i forgot to add the fog lights where they origonaly were. i cant put the rear and skirts or the front w/ the foglights cause my scanner is not working the way it should. also theres no offence taken i under stand that it is an opinion. i personaly like the diamond accents on the vibe. i am also not a fan of the Evo kits there just a little to rice 4 me, but thats only my opinion.

kerrykerrykerry · Post by **kerrykerrykerry** » Sun Jul 24, 2005 4:18 pm

yea, i actually like both of them a lot. I reallly really dont like the 05+ front grills, they are very lackluster and look too much like the rest of the pontiac lineup, which isnt a good thing to me. But i would buy that front end in a heartbeat, foglights/no fogs.

omat5e1 · Post by **omat5e1** » Sun Jul 24, 2005 7:39 pm

So far, it seems like the consensus is a cross between Nascarxprt's pictures and the GT-R kit... If anyone could sketch something that would cross the best features of both, that would probably help quite a bit. I would, but I can't draw worth crap.

Mr. Poopypants · Post by **Mr. Poopypants** » Sun Jul 24, 2005 10:43 pm

No offense to nascarXprt, but I would just like a copy of the GT-R kit. No additions, no subtractions, just the GT-R kit. Keep in mind, the more your kit is similar to the GT-R kit, the better it will probably sell, that has been the talk around here for a long time. Just my opinion.

That makes sense, other than those things, I think it looks good, now that i know they serve a purpose, they are ok I would buy one w/o fogs in a heartbeat, if i had the cash
