[Skiboarder311]

Well after a couplea months, i finally got the call today i've been waiting for. Andy's is finally done with the molds and my kit is done and on the way.

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Eric called me today, and gave me the good news. It was shipped today and will be delivered on monday. SO check back for inital pics of the kit on monday afternoon. and if i am doing nothing monday night, i may be able to get the front installed so u can see some unpainted pront pics.


Its comming!!!!

ANd he said that as soon as we get the pics taken they're gonna be all over. They have advertisements in Superstreet, SCC, import tuner. etc.....

Hopefully this will drum up some more peeps to the site

[nex]

nice man, yea they do have alot of ads in every mag! it would be sweet to see an alero in one of those!

[r53silver91s]

Cool can't wait to see it.

[Oldsman]

that is great. hope the kit looks real good and does take off.

i want to see Alero ads......................LOL

[Skiboarder311]

Oh don't get me wrong dood, I won't be in any ad's myself, Have u ever seen an AAS ad? they have like at least 6 cars on a page, so its not gonna be a full page mag advertisement or anything. But it's still gonna be a sweet site!!

[3.4Alero]

Very nice, ski. I gotta see it in person. We'll definitely have to get together one of these days.

[r53silver91s]

Yeah I can't wait to see it painted and in person on the car. All of us Pittsburgh people gotta get together one day this spring or summer.

[Naich]

Ski, you gotta put a big ass aleromod.com banner on your windshield for the pic. This way, when it gets published, we'll get some traffic! PM me, and lets work something out.

[havik]

Good news, can't wait to see the pics (and the ad :thumbsup: )

[alerov6]

that would be awesome to see ur car on superstreet. Aleromod would be gettin a poop load of hits.

[keytonic]

Sweet man can't wait to see the pics on the car.

[CocoaAlero]

Me To!

[Twigz]

Congrats, Ski. Can't wait to see pics. (on here and in ad) Keep in mind what Naich said about the banner and represent to tha fullest, homie! :pimp:

[johny_boy32]

[Silentalero]

Yea sounds good dood, defanitally let us know what mag it gets in so I can pick up a copy.

[King Asoka]

dood, i cant wait!!!!!

[Skiboarder311]

I already have the aleromod banner on teh rear window of my car, But they put the front end shots in the mag's. But i would be willing to put a aleromod banner on the front if someone "donates" it. I don't wanna sound like a piker or anything, But i'm gettin laid off tomorrow and have to start countin pennies.
Btw heres a list of the mags that they advertise in, SO these are the potential mags that my car will be in.

my digicam is dead right now, but i'll have pics up later on.

and hopefully i'll have it installed by the end of the week

[r53silver91s]

Can't wait to see some pics and see it in person, when are you gonna get it painted.

[Silentalero]

def gets pics soon :)

[Skiboarder311]

not gettin it painted for another week or 2, but heres the first pics of the finished andy's kit

[Skiboarder311]

front, loox a TON better than the GA kit, cuz anyone that has seen teh GA kin in person it has that NASTY lip on the top, ours DOESN"T loox a TON!!! BETTER

[Skiboarder311]

its hard to see from the pics, but the sides have just the right curves and definition, MUCH better than the razzi sides!!

[Alerosince99]

Looking good. They did get rid of the second license plate deal and it is set up for dual exhaust. Cant wait to see how it looks painted!

[Skiboarder311]

rear loox like its dropped down more, and doesn't come up as far in the back

and the license plate bracket is gone, its flat and goes witht eh rest of the kit

[3.4Alero]

Very nice, Ski.

[Skiboarder311]

seeee almost no lip on the front, GA front comes out a good 6 inches and loox really stoopid!

[johny_boy32]

looks great...good job ski

[jonez]

Looks good cant wait to see it on the car.

[nex]

thats soooo pimp dude :pimp:

[King Asoka]

looks nice ski, cant wait to see it on your ride!

[Silentalero]

yea looks good dood, still say the shave those top holes on the front bumper though.

rear came out better than it was pictured

[havik]

BAH! I thought you had pics of them installed already :D

This kit looks nicer than I originally thought

[r53silver91s]

Looks alot better than I thought it would too. I like that kit alot now that I see some good pics.

[Travis99Alero]

the kit looks good, especially sinced they fixed the rear of it. the only things i dont like are the holes at the top of the front, and the spot for a front license plate. other than that, it looks :pimp:

[99blackalero]

i like it...looks better than their original mold they posted, rear bumper looks like it is dropped a bit more

[DansGen1Alero]

makes me want to get one more, damn my new house, damn my dogs and damn my wife, I am setting up a gen1 fund

anyone want to donate? :P
lol

just kidding

inless anyone wants to

kit looks good , props to you

[Daytona]

Can't wait to see final pics!

[Naich]

yeah, I agree... I really dig the final product!

[Final-Reality]

For some reason the kit not on the car looks better than the promo pictures they had, but I'll still reserve judgement until I see it on your car, but so far it's encouraging ski :thumbsup:

[loudalero]

I am excited to see how this turns out on your car and you got to let us know on how the fitment is but stop reading this and finish putting this on.

[99blackalero]

^
^
^

LMAO...i agree, get that bad boy on

[Skiboarder311]

Yah know i have been sayin the whole time that i'm gonna shave teh top holes, But now that i see it in person, i'm keepin them.

See thats what i hate about pictures, they give u no concept for the lines and curves of something. You guys really need to see this thing in person to fully appreciate it. I have been lookin at it all day, as as for right now, i think its perfect!!! Trust me, when u guys see this in person u'll see what i mean.

Now back to business

I spent all night with a case of smirnoff triple black in the garage sandin this bioch, so thats one step closer.

Tomorrow i plan to start puttin it on. But its gonna take a lil longer than expected, cuz i didn't know i was gonna have to drill my own mounting holes, so thats gonna take a while.

I could use some help though. Ok peeps, who has ever put on a "real" body kit b4?? do u think i'm gonna have to lose anything under the front and rear, or will this thing just bolt right on? I'm pretty good at figuring things out, but i have never put on a "real" bodykit b4 and i could use some pointers.

thanx guys

[Silentalero]

most you migth lose is some plastic guards, nothing major

[loudalero]

Yeah most you will lose is some plastic and maybe your fogs but who nows on that but hopefully you can use the stock fogs but is there a little indentations on the fiberglass if so then just drill those bad boys out and and get this thing on and I dont see why you wont be able to use all the stock mounting hardware but every kit is different but good luck and hurry up. I want to see pics tomorrow when i get home from work. :thumbsup: But I am sure that it will look good.

smirnoff????

P*ssy

[99blackalero]

i asked andy about that before and he said the only thing you'll lose is the plastic, he said the stock fogs will work...hope he's right

[Skiboarder311]

even if the stock fogs will work, i don't think i'm gonna use them, i want to get some of those angel eyes fogs :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I'm gonna try to get at least the front end on today, But all my buddies are busy and this job would be much easier with a helper.


anyone around the pittsburgh area not busy tonight wanna help me put my bodykit on and help me tackle a case of Corona :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

[OpalaAlero]

Plus you have some other stuff to do... :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[sound_xtreme]

almost every body kit i have put on a car and every kit i have seen put on a car you had to drill the holes. this leaves room for minor mold(from the factory or aftermarket) errors and they can be corrected by slightly moving the hole.

[DansGen1Alero]

I broke down and ordered one, The wifey let me, Should have it in two weeks. I had just ordered it right before the sale was over. I will post some pics as well if no one minds. can't wait to see yours dude.

[boarder211]

Damn! I wish I actually had some $... :( Oh well! Hope that you get it on soon, and I'm looking forward to the pics!

[AlbinoMonkeyRat]

you got to show us your test fitting too! That might help Andy's to motivate some of us Alero guys to buy one of their kits. (advertise...;))

[Skiboarder311]

Front is on baby!!!!

and OMG it loox flockin SIKK!!!!!!!!! I got a hard on just lookin at it unpainted!!

But i forgot my digicam, so u guys will have to wait until tomorrow to see the test fit pics.

I am very happy so far, there are almost no fittment issues with the front, and i didn't have to remove anything. which was sweet, and the stock foglights sit just right in the corners, so not only can u keep the stock fogs, they actually look good!!

I'm, gettin up tomorrow mornin to put the back and sides on, and i will make sure the camera is there.

But take my word for it people, this thing loox SIKKK and i have to give a Big up to Eric at andy's. I am horored to be the first one with this kit. cuz i LOVE IT

[johny_boy32]

thats awesome ski...cant wait for pics

[Oldsman]

how is the fitment arounf the headlights?

does the thing need to be pie cut because of humping up in the middle of the headlight?

[Skiboarder311]

Nope, fittment around the headlights is pretty good.

theres a lil bit of gap in the center, but i can live with it

U'll see what i mean when i get the pics later. But no it doesn't "hump up in the middle

[99blackalero]

im just going to sit and wait for them pics :popcorn: :popcorn:

[99blackalero]

Pics are in the Showcase...they're awesome

[Skiboarder311]

Hah I was thinking the same thing :P

Also, looks pretty good ski, for some reason the front as a whole looks a lot "rounder"? than stock? I'm not really sure how to describe it... it's not as aggressive looking on the car as it appears when I first saw the pics of just the bumper, thats a good thing I think, I like it ski, nice work :thumbsup:

[Skiboarder311]

WHAT!!!!
u guys don't like Smirnoff Triple Black!!!! ????? !!!!!!

OMG i love that stuff, i drink it like water.

U guys are crazy :huh?: :huh?: :huh?:

[Final-Reality]

If it's in a bottle, it better be beer :P

If not then I'll take a rye & ginger

[Naich]

If it has alcohol in it, and doesn't taste totally rank, I could care less what the label says. I like smirnoff.

I agree with you about the shape of the kit. The original version they posted had a nose that stuck out too far, and it didn't flow with the body too well... but the final version looks much cleaner.

If I ever got it, I think I would still need to fill in all the holes in the front though... but overall it looks very nice IMO.

[Skiboarder311]

Hell yah, i'm with naich!!!!

[Qcksilver]

Nice pics, can't wait to see it painted dude!! :thumbsup:
