the drawings just looked so aggresive, this thing just looks friendly......... I like mean cars...lol

if it is left as is it needs an optional lip kit........ I think an additional front and rear lip could change everything

My problem with body kits is that they use that crappy cheap ass looking mesh grill cover garbage to fill in the gaping holes. Finish the body kit right or don't do it at all. Make a nice grill to fill in the gaping mouth and get original with the 2'x2' fog light area holes.

I know I'm waking an old thread, but for those of you that are interested in the Grip Tuning body kit I talked to the Grip Tuning Rep. on Saturday at the SEMA show in Philly. He told me the kit is going to be out in June and said the price is probaly going to be $1295

I like it, but the only thing I dont like about it is the front where the bowtie was, it seems a bit "open".. something is missing almost, maybe a grill or something?.. I would consider it though

I really like this kit I'll be saving my pennies, I'll admit it's not perfect but when I get it I may mod the front facia a little bit, we'll see, plus the materials they are using to make it can take some serious abuse,

I'ts all personal preference, I'll admit it is a little salty but my car is a daily driver I just want a little more appearance for my base balt and I don't like the other body kits that are out there "too fast and the furious looking" and the only other kit I would consider putting on my car is the factory ss/sc kit but then it wouldn't be right cause my car is not an ss.

The rep didn't mention any thing about a new spoiler I wasn't aware they were working on one. I guess we'll have to wait and see.

We have a spoiler in the works now to replace that one (which will fit any cobalt coupe)
He said they had one in the "works." Hopefully they didn't forget about us.
