Ok, and now the fenders. I like Gregg's fenders better, but if this deal does take off, they're one more thing that's available, and well, we Alero owners can't be too picky, as there's shat for aftermarket panels avalable, but I'm trying......
This is the design on an older Cavelier/Sunbird:

the fenders look good....the hood would be "okay" if it wasn't pin-on. i would be in on the fenders if it's not TOO expensive.

If I had to take a guess without confirming anything, I'd venture a guess @ $525.00 for a set of fenders, $625.00 for the hood... shipped to your doorstep. Granted, this is only a rough guess. I'll recieve firm prices soon.

The fenders aren't too bad but the hood.. I dunno. There's just something about it... just doesn't look to be "Alero" material..

Well the fenders aren't as tacky as the hood, imo. The hood is just too "beefy" if you will, for an Alero.

I agree.. it's too 'beefy' for a friggin Cavalier, too. I think I would put it more along the lines of anteater meat, tho, not beef. :P

It's a figure of speech.. like, it should be on a muscle car.. not an Alero or a Cavalier.

Ok gang, I got a reply from Rob.....and I'm pleasantly surprised with the total price of the fenders.  Here's the final tally:
"From: Eric Davis [mailto:stickwelder77@yahoo.com]

Ok, now what can these 10 initial buyers expect to pay for a set of fenders, or a hood?
Again, thanks for your time,

Hello;
The Pin On style Ram Air Hood would be $398.00 U.S.D. or $498.00 Canadian (Shipping to the U.S. to a business is $200.00 and in Canada it ranges from $100-150.00) and the VSX Fenders would be $300.00 U.S.D. or $400.00 Canadian (Shipping would be $85.00 to the U.S. and $50-85.00 In Canada)
Thanks Rob

For us south of the boarder, that's $385 for a set of fenders, shipped to our door ! I dunno about the quality though, I suppose if there were someone local to them that could possibly go to their facility and check things out? I dunno, but if the quality is decent, and the fitment is good enough that the lines of the car are ok, then I'd JUMP @ these fenders for that price. Anyone care to make the drive out to their facility? They're located @

I think we have a couple of Edmonton members on here, if they can't help I might be able to, depending on what all is involved...
