Manufacturer Gauging Interest in 4 door Body Kit!

Greetings,

I am a designer for Grip Tuning and we are finishing up development on a Cobalt Coupe body kit. From what I can tell, the only change to the sedan would be a different rear fascia. If this is the case, are there many 4 door Cobalt owners? If so, do you guys think that it's enough to justify building out a kit for the sedan (because all we would have to do is create a unique rear fascia).

Any input would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

I was thinking the same thing.

But as far as the Co. I would deffintly do it. Im not sure how much it would cost you guys in all the development but just having a body kit for the 2 door and 4 door would prolly greatly increase the chances for you guys making more money. So yes I say get that rear peice.

I will put up a pic of the original sketch of the kit today.....Yes, it's going to be MUCH cheaper than the 300C kit...it will be competitively priced with other comparable kits....rest assured...

:-)

Here are some photos of the prototype kit for the 2004+ Dodge Neon....

Keep in mind..sideskirts and a rear spoiler are under development and will be realeased with the rest of the kit. Kit is OEM T.P.O. material, not fiberglass.....










The kit for the Cobalt will consist of a front, rear and sides, as well as an optional blowmolded decklid spoiler...

LOVE the rear mesh inserts? Do you have predicted pricing? I dont think anyone with a 4 door cobalt would be more than $750 or so. Reason being, SS 4drs have a great kit to start with so your headed after the base models and those who simply want to be different.
