OSV Bodykit Prebuy*UPDATE NOV.26.2003********

[Silentalero]

Installation is going to be a complete bumper replacement. And thanks, Ive been working for 2 years to try and get this kit made and only received limited support which is whats made it hard. Since I cant ever get enough people to do a prebuy im forced to make ti myself and duplicate the mold.


Actually good update is the car comes back to my house tomarrow and sat is Hot import Nights so my back seats will be done and then the following sunday my bumpers are coming off and the mold is gonna start so expect some pics of the molds withing the next 2 weeks.

Thanks a ton Silent for sticking with this. Let me know when you want the second half of my payment...

I don't know you, but I do know (via photos) some of your incarnations of Aftermath. On a personal note, whether I can buy in now, or (hopefully) you/they/whoever continue to make the kit available, I want to give you a huge thanks for going through all the hard work and trouble of making the kit in the first place. After seeing your work, it did suprise me that you would spend so much time on something, that while is ultra-sleek, is quite tame / mundane to your creativity. I hope it'll continue to be available if I can't partake in it at this time (and the others, as well!) You commented that you don't want too many of them around. While I understand that, in my area (NE Ohio) there aren't ANY fx'ed kitted Alero's running around. I've seen only one in with my eyes, and that was in PA. My point is that it's not like everyone with an Alero will be buying one. But it would be nice if the people down the road who want to OSV look could still have the chance. I know, not my work, not my decision, just thought I'd throw that out there.

omg, lol. dont tell me you think silent is robbie. silent could never do the work robbie did to aftermath.

I am horibly upset that I unfortunatly will not be able to get in on this as I had hoped. I'm not making enough money now to cover my bills. I hope to be considered on the induvidualy basis further down the line when I finally get my self out of debt. If you won't be making them anymore at that point I guess I'll Build it my self :wah:

so its me and flippedout on the prebuy?



marc, you sent the bumpers this past sunday or are sending them this sunday coming up(1 august)?

[Silentalero]

sent?? pfft u mean take off....im molding this myself in my garage, i just gotta go get the wood/vettefiller/rage gold/resin n whatnot and alot of measuring and cutting to exact specs.

but today im sanding and filling the back seat mold because I want to finish that before I go working on another project....the sanding should be done today or tomarrow on the back seats so that by this weekend itll be prepped for paint...then the bumpers start.


bad thing is since the stock bumpers are plastic im gonna need alot of vette filler and that stuff aint cheap....$75 a gal

[bdyman]

our bumpers are a platice called tpo and i have seen some yrs switch to tpe very hard plastic to work with

[Silentalero]

Well just wanted to keep everybody updated. I am close to starting the mold but after finding out my grandpa has cancer its sorta stopping this for another week or so......I wanted to start on it this week but there is just way to much going on with family n all

That sucks silent, My grandpa is in the hospital with cancer right now but Is doing pretty well finally. Hopefully he will get home this week. I hope yours recovers and will keep him in my thoughts and prayers.

I would love to get my hands on an OSV kit. You can put me down for anytime as well.

looks like only the people that are serious about this kit are going to get it... you should offer it in CF also.... i mean, once you have the mold, shouldnt be any problem right?

what do I need to do to preorder one? Let me know, is there a form somewhere?

i want one this looks sexy and euroipean look with is what i am looking for. all i want is for it to bolt right up to stock bolts.

Do you have any idea what is involved in making carbon fibre pieces?

Lets just say you need an expensive roll of carbon fibre, a lot of spare man hours, oh and another little thing: a huge, pressurized oven big enough to fit your parts in.

well, there's the dude that made the CF trunk lid for the Grand Am's...perhaps later on a deal could be made there. Just a wishful thinker, here.

[Silentalero]

its not a true carbon fibre piece though, its a stock piece rewrapped in c/f


and btw yes if you want to get in the prebuy all you have to do is mail the prebuy money order to me

[jackal2000]

marc, whats the word on the kit?

any progress on the kit? Haven't seen anything on it in awhile.

[Silentalero]

yes there is something very good in the works
