Cavalier XTREME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
I saw this and it made me laugh! I always find it amusing when car companies try to make something to fit a niche and then overcharge for it!!! There's no need for this kit to be just less than a grand!!!

Mmmm Nice!

What do you think
You get Front and rear bumper covers, sideskirts and mounting hardware!!
This is worth a grand, WHY?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Not to mention the fact that that image has been extensivle retouched and that it looks dog shit in that colour!
EXTREME CLOSE-UP
For everyone who reckognises a quote from a true classic of a movie!

Re: Cavalier XTREME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
yeh, i don't care for the color at all. I don't see anything all that special on front/rear covers, though the front does seem to flow well in design to the ride. I do think the sideskirts are cool, I like the cutout in the rear, wonder if it at all functional??? LOL.
Anyhoo, $1K???? I agree, wtf!!!!!!!

Re: Cavalier XTREME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
I do think the rear spoiler is nice, seems to flow well. Obvious aftermarket, though, right? Kinda misleading???????

Re: Cavalier XTREME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
i like it, to many body kits try and change the original design of the car. A good body kit will do nothing more than accent the cars look. something that at first you might not notice. It looks sweet IMO. I wonder if i could use the side skirts?

I like it too. It's got a clean look to it. Oh well, beauty is in the eye of the beerholder.

Re: Re: Cavalier XTREME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Never said that it was Ugly just that for it to be worth a grand they'd have to tape $800 inside the front bumper cover!

Yes, that's what body kits are meant to do. Change it from it's original look.

I'm hoping that wasn't me included! I only said it looked shit in that coulour I like the kit just no either of the wings, Cav Turbo or Cav Xtreme! not that the kit includes the wing the main point was the vast overpricedness of this kit!

I'm a sucker for yellow. It looks okay. nothing spectacular. but if I had 1k on me it wouldn't be for no damned 1k bodykit ><. maybe get that bodykit on JCW and spend the rest on my girl?
