im not a big fan of the wide body look. It changes the whole look and lines of the car. I am also not a big fan of slapping bondo on a perfectly good car....
Hahaha...Bondo. I emember my familys 1964 pontiac grand prix. It was like 72% bondo. LOL Thats what living on the oregon coast will do to ANY car. LOL.

I do agree that it's kinda silly slaping bondo no a perfectly good car though.

I dont know about any of you, but this is the body kit for me. Sooooooo sexy



Works out to being about 3/4 of an inch wider in front and 2 inch's wider in the rear. Nothin to extreme, nice and clean
Aside from the front fender vent, its rather subtle too.

When I mentioned the Mariah Fenders I was speaking of the Mode 5 Flared Fenders(about $270 a pop). These are simply bolt on. They actually use these on their EP 2nd Gen. Look Killer! The Mode 6 flared Fenders(about $500 a pop) you have mentioned is part of a larger kit. All molded.. and looks awesome. Lot's of man hours, then paint and don't forget about the custom rims!

88gt...the way I see it...If I'm even gonna go with the mode 6...I'll go full package. I like just about everything about that kit...even the options a killer. Although, I'm not sure about the hood...I was thinking something with a scoop would look nice and serve a better purpose of cooling the compartment. Pluss the scoops seem to add a more aggresive look to any car...IMO.

i think it looks like a peanut, i'm not really a fan. You either love it or you hate it, in most cases, people loved it or hated it about 15 years ago....

Have you ever seen the Mode 6 in person? Pictures do not do this car justice!
