Grip Tuning Body kit debut.... *PICS*

Well, here it is....This is the prototype kit for the Cobalt Coupe. The production tooling is being made now, but this is 98% what it's going to look like. We are getting the car ready today to roll into Detroit Autorama (LARGE rod/tuner show in Detroit) Let me know what you guys think. We are pretty happy with the way it turned out. We have a spoiler in the works now to replace that one (which will fit any cobalt coupe)

So, with that, on with the photos...

I was waiting to see if someone would make the connection ;-) Good job!

Center taillights are being tinted right now....

Thanks for the comments, keep them coming!

We are located in the Detroit area


Retail pricing should be around $1200-1300 dollars I think...don't quote me on that..full kit, sides, front and rear fascias.

The only thing I don't like it no dual cut outs for the exhaust on the bumper. More dimension should be made for the exhaust cut outs so it would look seemless.. otherwise I like it

We are probobly going to offer something for the sedan. The front will fit but we'll have to do new rockers and a new rear...

That was the first thing that crossed my mind, and upon further examination it looks like they actually used that bumper to make this kit.

But congrats to the desiners and prototypers, finally a clean looking kit, good job!
I want to see a pic of the new spoiler

I didn't even think about those. I wonder if they can make a housing that will fit in there so we can keep our fog lights.

i think its prob the best looking kit. But it looks like the SS non S/C bumbper in the fact that, there is no lip. I think if it had a lip to make it look a lil lower, i would hands down buy that kit fpt my car! good job other wise guys!! KEEP EM COMING!

No, the Sentra bumper was not used to fabricate this kit. I actually didn't see that connection till just now either...heh...interesting....
