Has anyone installed a gm sport apperance ground effects kit on a two tone vibe - or at least seen pictures of one with the kit on them..??Kit installed - 04-16-05

http://forums.genvibe.com/zero...age=2bottem of page...there should be a burgundy 2 tone with it on...how it helps

thanks a bunch...I came across a factory sport kit cheap and before I installed it, I wanted to see sort of how it would look... thanks again...

glad i could help

where do you get the kit at?how much $$$

This might be unbeliveable, but I got it free... I work at a dealership, and we sold one of our other stores and all theparts were shipped to the main store, where I work at... for some reason the part was unaccounted for and the part number on it was discontinued..some kind of hooplah like that... so the parts guys saw what was in the box.. complete body kit minus the two spoilers...and remembered I drove a vibe and asked if I wanted it - because they were going to throw it away...and I said heck yea... my only dilema now is that it's the abyss color - already painted...my car is frosty two tone...so should I repaint it or put it on as is..??oh, what a problem to have...

Throw it on as is just so we can see what it looks like! If you don't like it you can always take it off and paint it.

good point...

hey 3 tone dammit rock on!!! it might look sweet!

Three tone it is....!!

I'm surprised. It does look good with the two tone. Gives it a "stripe" look. Those wheels really look great with gun metal or gray finish, almost an exact match to the cladding. I'm curious as to how the Frosty two tone with the Abyss would look. Might look good, definitely unique.

I hope to put the kit on this weekend...if all goes right...I'll keep you guys posted.

Here it is guys and gals.... Let me know what ya think...My three tone vibe, I like it...it's ghetto-fabulous Special thanks to my cousin Carl and make-ready tech Ron for all the help with the kit...

Don't mention it, cuz! I had a good time and it was flippin sweet working in such a nice shop! Now that I'm seeing it again, it looks even better!!

SWEET! I would probably try to get the whole thing, 2-tone pieces and all, painted black(or maybe even white would be cool!) just for uniformity and flow. Looks awesome though! for the guiene(?) pig!!

Thanks man....

i'll give it a try. but do you want the top part and kit black and the plasic white or visversa

The kit white like the car.....and the gray to stay the same... Thanks.....

Here ya go hows this. i also did the rear veiw side mirror.

looks much better in white...looks like its lower to the ground or something...go white dude.

I'd change the kit to white as well. I'm not feeling the white, gray, to black. There just isn't much contrast between the gray and black and it doesn't look that great in my opinion. I think painting the kit white would look great, like NascarXprt's photochop shows.

Dude!!!!!!!!!!! That's freakin awsome.....As soon as I get the cash flow...That's going to be my next project... Thanks NascarXprt.... u da bomb...

thanx bud_one i o it all to painting cars for my Nascar Racing Season 2003 PC game. to see more of my cars go to http://www.V2-Motorsports.com

Chopped to the two tone grey and looks actually pretty good. I chopped it to black and white also didnt seem to look so good i like the grey.

I also chopped it to blue, red, green, actually the dark blue bottom was really cool

Looks good also....Good Job Orange GT too cool.....

That is just gorgeous! Go for the white. Seriously though, if i dont work at a dealership, where do i find this kit and how much should i expect to pay for it. all i can come across online is the RX sports kit and i hate it.
