Obviously bodykit unless you are SOOOO into your interior that your willing to spend 200 dollars a seat.

I vote neither. If you get a body kit, then you'll HAVE to lower it, and get new rims, and of course PAINT IT. If you get the seats, you'll have to get the rest of the interior to match.

If you're only going to do one thing, do something else...like work on the engine.

Seats of course. :P Considering all the body/ground effect kits for the Alero look like poop, seats would only be logical. I've been eyeing the Sparco Monza myself for my next upgrade:

x2. i completely agree, i think doing either of those will cost ya a boat load. probably cheaper to go for engine mods, as long as you know where to look, you'll save quite a bit of cash.

thanks guys, i'll be getting my springs in by march 31st. I'm going with springtech, i think im gonna go with the kit, i figure my cheapo seat covers will suffice, and im defintiely doing engine mods, i wanna wait till school, i dont know a lot about my engine yet just the basics at best. I"ll do all that work when i get the knowledge :) btw i think i'll be going with the aas kato. i figure its better then paying 4500 for the forbidden and as much a i love the razzi i dont wanna play with fiberglass that much.

all of the alero body kits look like poop??? :wtf: :blink: whhhaaaaaaaaattttttttttttttttttttttt I think that a body kit on an alero makes the alero look so much sharper than other cars with kits on them.... the razzi, now i can see where you are coming from but aas's kit looks PIMP

Personally, i think the *** looks like crap. too boxy. as well as the price.... WAY too high. i bought my car for 10k, i don't want to spend half that on 2 bumpers and sideskirts.

I'd also go with the AAS kit. but everytime i say that, someone calls me a ricer. :glare:

and ~600 for ONE seat?!? i was looking into changing mine until i saw how much comfy seats cost. i think i'll just opt to go to a junk yard, find some comfy ones and recover them myself. (mom is a seamstress... so i'll have professional help.... and by myself, i mean have her do it.)

there would be NO WAY i'd pay 1200 for seats.

i still say neither...save your money and do something useful with it other than making sure your butt is comfy and making it difficult to get over curbs at the supermarket

I've decided not to get a body kit for mine but when I was looking I thought about combining the forbidden with Razzi. I would do forbidden front and sides but definitely the Razzi rear I like it way better than the ****... how are you doing yours?

this is why the forbidden is called such, and not the by proper name.

i dont like the razzi kit, if your going to get one, get the AAS

battistoni21 - if I wanted to look like a ricer that couldn't win a race with a Fiesta, I'd get a Civic, not throw a body kit on an Alero; it's all opinion though. ;)

The only kit I think can look halfway decent is the Razzi: on a 4 door, when it's molded (sound_xtreme), and that's only because it's the closest to stock.

cherrington - I figure I spend the most time in my car in my seat, so it makes sense to get good ones.

El Pablo - congratulations man, car is looking awesome!

razzi is only way to go, unfortunate they dont make a full bumper replacement like it. but it still looks pretty decent not molded in. i just took it one step further.

AAS looks like ass imo.

***** is pretty good if done up right. like richies. it's more of an "extreme" body kit, for people who plan on doin a ton of stuff/shaving etc.
