1st gen body kits?

Anyone know any good companies that specialize in 1st gen body kits? I own a 1984 GSL-SE and haven't seen much in the way of body kits for it on the net using Google.

Thanks in advance!

I'm adding a widebody kit to my catalogue in the next day or two - just have to resolve an FTP issue (tech stuff to do with my computer, not the bodykit!)

O 16581 72452 5, given that Zeta-Gouki has but one post it's clear s/he is new and may not even know what you're referring to when you say 'repost'. We were all new here once, and should remember that those who were patient with us came across as far more welcoming than those who were not.

But i guess i will go with that "welcoming attitude" there's body kits on www.spoilers.com and www.mariahmotorsports.com there's also plenty of ways to have places fully customize you a body kit... my front air dam for example and cost the same price as everything else out there.

Yes it does.. when I get un-lazy I'll have it installed and not have it as an on-top-of-comp ornament anymore

The kit I'm offering is the CP kit - I'm their online rep.

The full kit (front fenders, rear flairs, new front airdam) will be aboot $950. I'm also adding a whale tail spoiler for the 1st gen, another CP Racing manufactured item, as a separate mod. The only thing I'm waiting for is for Chris to send me better pics of the kit and spoiler.

BTW my cupholder/stereo bracket kit is gorgeous, with brushed stainless, lightweight aluminum and all, but it is a home-designed thing that uses foam tension to hold your beverage. I'm proud of it, but don't expect whirring gears and stuff.

What's the link to some pictures i could see of this kit, and also, are you going to be selling seperate pieces of the kit, not the whole thing?

haven't posted pics of the body kit to the internet yet. The ones I have are small and a bit out of focus.

I'll talk to Chris aboot offering the front/rear flares separately, but the front air dam needs the front flares.
