Body Kit!
put this on saturday in a walmart parking lot south of pittsburg. drove 8 hours to meet greg, 2fst4u, and pick up a few more parts.
just a few random pics and some painting the bumper (looked like crap with the white behind it) going to wash and wax the car, as well as plastic dip the door handles and maybe spoiler tomorrow afternoon, then I'll get some more pics up.
I know it needs- lowered, rims, and dual exhaust. they are all soon to come.

Thanks, it looked terrible with the metal bumper still white and rusted a little behind the mesh. Thankfully it was easy to pull off again, then just and hour and half of sanding with the drill, and some primer and paint later it turned pretty good.

Thanks. Took around 3 hours. The side skirts needed a bit of trimming and we fabricated the brackets for them on the spot, but it had also been on his alero for a while so it was already molded and holes drilled and everything, it went on really easy, pulling the stock bumpers off just took a while, and those front bumper bolts were a pain in the ***.

I forgot who it was but someone posted picks on the howto plastic dip thread and I really liked the look. I might also be doing the spoiler and when I get the vfiber hood the raised part will black on it.

The black door handles are NOT a good look, it looks retarded. The vfiber hood is the best hood that is readily available, but that's not saying much....

Gonna be the first to say this... Not a fan at all.. Besides the OSV kit, there isnt a body kit for the Alero that doesn't make it look like a cheap chinese toy car... But thats just my opinion... I still respect the work and time you put into your car. I just think the Alero is sexy enough with some cleared corners, lowered and some rims.

that would be me good sir.
the most i would do on a body kit is probably just the razzi, i dont like to flashy of a body kit, most people consider it rice and i dont care to hear about it.

It turned out really good, we got home around 3:30am and I put in all the new tails and went to bed. Around noon I got up did the bumper, looks way better. That top hole on the rear bumper I had mentioned, on both sides it bent in a little there so I drilled and ran a zip tie, the whole kit just flows perfectly, Theres no way I woulda guessed you'd had it for 5 years.

I don't care what people think. Personally I find it extremely sexy. My buddy who went with is threading to have me wake up one morning with it gone, lol, he wants it for his alero. And judging by the staring problem iv had with everyone around town, they must be liking it.

Oh trust me, they are on the list. Tint is a little first back though, new exsauat and the hood is before that. Either way my stock rims are getting the though winter though, I'm not getting new ones just to see them cover on dirty and salt.

No, just because people look at it doesn't mean they like it. They probably think it's funny how a stock height, stock wheels four-door car has the riciest body kit available on.
Most people hated my kit when it was on, but at least when they poked fun I had the power to beat them.

I think it's cool. Just another look for our Aleros. I remember I mentioned something about people looking at my car and I got slammed for that too. Come to find out many, many people have told me what a really nice looking car I have. I'm about as stock as I can get but since I keep mine spotless always, I get lots of compliments. Rock that Alero anyway you want! It's yours and whatever makes you happy is what's important P Rad.
