Me and a friend have came to the conclusion that we are going to make a complete custom kit for the Alero since there are only like 2 on the market. I will have some pictures of what it will look like later this week and will be posting them.

But hey, tell me what you think. We are planning on making molds and selling them, so im gonna need some help and input.

And you make the third person on this site to say your going to make a kit. Silent has had one in the making for 2 or so years and it isnt even close to being done.

looks and seems easy... untill you actually get down to doing it... then the idea doesn;t sound so hot and you give up...

Step 1 in business: Know your competition. There are 3 kits available for the alero.

if you do come through and actually make a kit. i say BUY the @3d kit and just remake it and sell it to us for cheaper :)

Ehh, If i was going to get a kit, it would be the "forbidden" front and the rest of the kit would be the RKSport kit for the Grand Am.

Back to the original post....Since I have no idea what kind of expirience you have with body kits, I say go for it. If you haven't already, I would do as much research as you can on every body kit for as many cars as you can stand to ensure that you don't copy somone else. If I was to do a kit for the Alero, I would look at the body lines and create a kit that would accent the car and not look like some ricer with a fat wallet and no taste picked it up off ebay. Obviously this is easier said then done. I wish you good luck....Maybe since I was one of the only ones here to give you the benefit of the doubt, you could sell me the first one:D

Issues with the body kits though, it's not just "making one"... how does it stand up... quality of work and materials... sampling something like this is a big gamble, and it's not an easy project to take on... I would still be quite hesitant about an untried kit. Sure, sure, every kit that comes out goes through it as well... but, still... credentials, previous experience...

lmao..

I have come to the conclusion that all these people that are talking about new body kits arent really the ones posting the threads, maybe its like those automated comments that people get over myspace from their friends sayings "want to see who visits your profileclick here" or "size does matter I have proof just click here to find out", thats the only logical thing I could come up with..

I finished that front bumper about a month ago. I'm just waiting on my Invader 2 side skirts and a new Showoff 3 rear bumper. And I don't have or know how to you Photoshop. If anyone is interested in that style front bumper, PM me and I'll give you a price on it. I only have a 3 bumpers left, and then I'll have to make some more.

That pic makes it hard to see what the actual bumper looks like. Can you please post a few different angles so we can see the profile and maybe a 3/4 angle shot?

Thanks in advance.

^we all did. and the part that makes it look photoshopped the most are the shadows from the kit and vehicle on the side

I like the way you took the "diplomatic" way of telling the guy he's full of crap...HA

But yeah, you should tell everyone you're ONLY KIDDING now to avoid looking like a real jerk later. Someone tried to sell that "picture" on eBay a year ago.

As a matter of fact...............

not only is that a photoshop but it is of the most horrible quality.... wow it's terrible... if you wanna sell someone... do it right... look at the whit line on the pavement on the right... it goes to a point...... they don't paint white lines to a point... and if you are gonna use two images to make one... make sure you have congruent resolutions... i've never seen a camera pixilate the bottom half of a picture... terrible attempt... BAN!

I cant believe this thread still exist...

My friend who was the brains behind this got a rear bumper close as you can to done, but just ditched out on me for the marines. So it is easy to say, this will not be finished at all seeing that i cant do body work.

But i would like to thank everyone for the support...:rolleyes2:

For anyone else thinking about trying this... i show my respect and wish you the best of luck to go off and do something different. And that goes to anyone else working hard to really do something "custom".

I have a problem with some people on here. Dont get me wrong, i love this site and most of you are nice guys with some great knowledge on the subject, but i have a feeling that some others just get on here to run there mouth.

If he can actually show us some good quality photos of that bumper on his alero, I'll beleive him... But I can't since he's sportin' the Kato front bumper on his avatar and his car is white, not the dark blue or black in the pic.
