Body Kit vs Leather seats

[Pontiacmaster81]

Well I just installed my Power steering pump and my New muffler on today, All in the presents of snow lol. Hands are still numb, But now that I got the two major obstacles out of the way I want to move on to something better.


I have a maroon red color car I was thinking of getting some Extreme Dimensions Body Kit for my car as you can tell by the pictures as well as rockers since mine are holding on to dear life

Front


Back


The other crappy thing is that they will come to me Black Which is not an issue since I plan on getting it repainted to a Metallic Midnight Black.

Or should I try focusing on getting my hands on some Leather Bucket seats. I tried searching for leather seats on eBay and every were else and nothing I like so far

Here is the video of my car's color tell me if I should change the color or try to make the color I have now

Beware of farting on leather seats, i almost died lol

[Pontiacmaster81]

Well the only leather seats I can find that I like are these but I can't find back seats and I am not a person who takes kindly to used crap. I know it saves money but things to me has to be new so even eBay has nice ones but idk.. What are some sites for the entire package


Why you guys hating on the Body Kits lmao

[l67ss]

Katzskin your current seats?

In the words of Bio... Stop it!!!

W/o reasoning behind your statements I see nothing wrong with spicing up my car that is entire need of a facelift

Just so you know there are going to be very very few members on here who are fans of body kits. The most anyone really does is the front spliter lip and thats about as rice as it gets around here.

It's your car so you can do what you want but if your into "rice-ing" then your on the wrong forum.

As far as the seats I'd recomend finding some 04+ heated leather seats.

Find an 04+ grand prix set of leather seats. Best seat option

Ok thanks and as far as the Body Kits goes my front bumper is cracked on the passenger side light assembly and my rockers are completely shot. Nothing wrong with getting a new bumpers and rockers even if it looks like a sports car.

If you get one of those fiberglass body kits they don't always line up prefect and they break very easily. I bought a talon a while back that the previous owner had put a blitz front bumper on and z3 fenders and it was a nightmare. Instead of flexing and bending when you hit stuff the pieces will tear and crack. If you do get an aftermarket body kit I would highly recommend getting one that is made from a similar material as OEM bumpers.

I ended up going out and buying the stock bumper and fenders from a junkyard and threw out the fiberglass ones.

If you want a body kit acceptable car buy a civic lol this is not the car group that supports such foolish ideas. But as for the seats go yes just get some 04+ they are way better.. if you want to make your car different check out this thread and start from there

So try to find a bumper that is Original Equipment Manufactured

So let me get this straight, you want me to buy a Honda that has 1.6liters, whereas my bottle of mountain Dew has 2?

[Alix0r]

Lol no I'm just saying if your looking for people to support the body kit idea on a GP you've come to the wrong place is all. Read through that thread and do some more research and trust me you will see some of our members cars that look 1000x better then the body kit picture. Then you will say to yourself wow I can't believe I ever wanted a body kit

[Pontiacmaster81]

I get were you're going from, to a point having those bumpers and possible rockers on my car now would not make it any less trash. Having it repainted to a Metallic Midnight black I assure you the bumpers would be the last place anyone would be looking at. Now if I was to buy underglow lights, Spoilers, paint/graphics, mods that are done very cheaply with poor workmanship.

The mods I plan on doing to my vehicle are for looks and performance, and are tastefull, $900 for my vehicle and nothing wrong with those kits in my eyes.

The Inside is nice minus the seats, Exterior is what I am focusing on now

Katzskinz the stock seat, better leather than oe

Everyone has a opinion and I can ensure you just about everyone is going to say no to your bodywork and racing seats it's a Grand Prix let not try to make it a need for speed car. Replace your bumper either a oem or replacement and it would look just as good. Want some sort of lip get the SD lip from pfyc. Want better seats find a set of leather 04/08 seats or opt and get some GXP seats if you can find them.

[REDCRAPGP]

Let's not forget that if you think a body kit is going to fit good without a bunch of modification you may want to rethink that.
