Vision 2000 Bodykit

Does anyone have any pictures of the Vision 2000 kit installed and painted on a Firebird? The one on the Showcars Body Parts doesn't give a very good impression of the kit.

I had a good photochop of it awhile ago. I posted it on here, but then I changed ISP's and lost the webspace it was on. Plus I formatted my HDD so I don't think it's on there either. I'll look for ya.

I still can't form an oppinion on it. Part of me likes it, the other part thinks it doesn't look that different from the stock Trans Am look.

I dont know what strikes me more odd, whether it be the GFX kit or that UFO in the background

I"m floating on a 50/50 like/dislike on that gfx package. The spoiler just looks waaayyy to big compared to the rest. I dont like it like that for some reason.

I love the look. It looks stock, but more aggresive. I can't wait to finally put mine on.

Imagine that with a Z28 hi rise spoiler, and gloss black. :hail:

They look like the stock ones, but they're lower... I saw a Camaro with ground effects like that in Hoboken, NJ. Is there a kit for the Camaro, too?

Could someone get the kit to look a bit smoother and the same color?

you could probably modify it a bit to fit

i agree, the bumper scraping would truely suck, i've scraped my under whatever it is, forgot the name, a few times, and possibly my body kit a few as well... But.. sometimes you gotta just find other ways to travel, and not scrape up your car...

The body kit does look like stock, at first glance, i was like, pfft, whatever, nothing new.. but, then i looked at it again, and i realized it was different, they just added some length to the bottom of the kit. I agree in the fact that it makes the car look far more aggressive, however, keeping the stock look. Makes it look more sporty as well.. Duno if i like it enough to put some money into it or not, or some other kit, like the predator, or just keep mine now.. :-/ mixed on everything at this point.

Good find tho. good to know about.

It almost looks like legos under the door in the pic of the red firebird (GTA?). It looks way better with stock Trans Am ground effects and lowering springs.

I think it takes away some of the sleek styling to the car and makes it look more bulbous. Yeck!
