I was browsing the FX designs website and I noticed that had added this bodykit. I like it even better than the one they make for the Camaros. I wonder if the sideskirts from the TA kit would fit a Camaro.

 

One word, UGLY.

 

I suppose it solves the issue of the firebirds being a bottom breather. But it still doesn't work with the cars lines, and ultimately looks out of place.

Its awkward, and I don't really see how to fix it.

I say ney, don't like it.

 

i like it looks bad ***

 

those side skirts looks good .

 

Call me *****, but I think it looks good too. Makes me really want to get my firebird back on the road!

 

I think it is hard to tell what it would look like when it's only primered. Perhaps it could be cool in it's own way.

But the thing that nags me about it, did you notice how incredibly low the front is? It's like almost scraping the ground, even though it seems to have stock ride height!!

I wouldn't lower a car with that kit...Now we only need a Baja-kit.

 

the back end sorta makes it look like the 4th gen trans am, which i like.

the side skirts are cool, i like that

the front end is uhhhhh, jury is still out

i need more angles and painted to really decide

 

It's different, so thats a plus....not really domestic looking though IMO someone should get it though

 

Send me the money and I'll gladly buy it!

Just kidding around with ya. But I do plan on buying it for my firebird when I get the cash.

 

i think i can sum this up for everyone....

side skirts look REALLY GOOD.
front bumper cover looks awful.
rear bumper is okay, but there are better options.

 

if all else u could order just the sideskirts and bumper... the only part i might not like about it is that it might not be long enough of a front it is hard to tell without some good shots...

 

im gonna order the bumper and the sideskirts.. those got damaged in the accident and its hard enough trying to find a decent bumper around here

also what does it mean by 2peice and 4 piece sideskirts or sideskirts and door panels what door panels are they talking about?

 

Not bad except for the front bumper cover. But I do like the foglight mounts and the big center scoop. If it was a TTA (copy, hopefully, no need to go taking apart a perfectly good original), an intercooler would look great in there.

The door panels are what make the sideskirts look straight along the top. The sideskirts are actually U-shaped and wrap around the sides of the door panels.

 

stuff like this just looks so outta place. These cars look great from the factory...but meh thats just my opinion

 

Looks like an old man who lost his teeth....

 

That makes me drool thinking about how that would look.

 

 

How nasty.

Especially the nose. Rear is... bearable... sideskirts are alright.

 

OMG HIDEOUS!

Our cars aren't 'tuner' cars and shouldn't be treated as such.

Side skirts are ok though.

 

I still have yet to see an aftermarket bodykit for thirdgens that I like

 

I like it. Everything is smooth and not over done except for the rear, its kinda of busy. Other than that I'd buy it (anybody have a price) and if I saw it painted.

 

i like the side and rear.. but i question the front.

before i call it ugly.. i would want to see a final product.. painted.. maybe in black or red..



any finished pics?

 

I think it definately looks better than any other kit i have seen for 3rdgens. Looks pretty good over all but i wouldnt put it on my car.

 

i like it, its diffrent, so do u guys think the side skirts would fit a camaro??

 

Define 'tuner' If you mean an automobile that's been modified with fiberglass body parts such as hoods (ahem), ...etc and/or performance upgrades, then what does that make us? I'm just messing with ya.

Actually, I like the rear, I really like the sideskirts, and in my mind, with the right paint, an intercooler, and some mesh to fill in where its teeth should be , it could have potential to look pretty cool. I've always liked totally different.

 

ugly


the only good part is the side skirts, rest is ****ing horrid

 

The price is $328 per part of the kit. I haven't found any pictures of it painted, but I doubt there are any since the kit just came out.

 

:no:

 

As far as body kits go, I think it looks pretty good.

ONe thing I take into consideration as I look at this is what it could POTENTIALLY do for the 3rdgen. Kids that want a V8 but some customization potential can look at that kit and actually buy a 3rdgen, instead of a Honda.

 

I don't see that as a good thing at all. Then we'll have a bunch of "Fast and Furious" third gens running around.

As for the body kit, I don't like it. The side skirts are alright, but the nose and rear bumper look out of place.

 

I see it as a good thing. Some of these people who would have never driven a V8 can see what the power of one can actually do. The more people who buy third gens and parts for them, the more aftermarket companies will make parts for us.

 

Someone photochop those pics so that we can see the kit with paint. You can't really tell if it looks good unless it actually goes with the car. But from seeing it now...I think it looks like **** except for the side skirts. I'd take those.

 

eww, I mean.. I like different.. thats just sick.. in a bad way... gross

 

True, but I'd rather not see APC come out with parts for our cars. I think the import tuner brands would just make import tuner styled parts for our cars. I guess if thats what you want a muscle car to look and sound like, then thats fine. Just my opinion though

 

I'll be honest, the only part I like is the sideskirts. I like the idea of an aftermarket kit, but so far I have not seen any of these kits that I like. The main reason I dont like the fronts of the FX design kits (for both Camaro and T/A) is because the bottom edges come back in toward the body instead of going straight down or out a little (like the stock front clip). I think this makes the front end look less aggressive. If the bottom corners were brought out a little more to make the entire front lip wider, then I think it would look 100 times better. The other thing I dont like are all the unnecessary vents. This gives the kit the illusion of being physically weak (well in my opinion anyway). I can understand vents in the front to mount turn signals or driving lights, even the area for a FMIC, but thats about it. And the rear bumper, that little bar that hangs between where the exhaust tips would sit, I dont see a reason for this vent. I think if it were solid then it would look physically stronger. I like the sideskirts alot.

 

The first thing I thought about when I saw it was that bright orange 'bird on eBay a while back that was "inspired" by F&F.

My vote: fugly.

 

exactally

 

I'd be happy if they made just tail lights. I hate how the stock tail lights look. But anyway, I'll be the first to admit that I love muscle cars. I love V8's and big *** cars, but I also like the GT Styling. I don't think the GT Styling looks as out of place on sports cars like Camaros and Firebirds as it does on economy cars like Civics.

 

one Word, UGLY

 

The bad thing of it is.. our cars are caught in a cross generation gap. The young crowd wants the: mass-media, mind-numbing, shoved-in-your-face-must have-it-because it's-trendy-it's-on-TV, it's the latest style so I'm in, crap.
The elder crowd wants.. custom but, subtle and still turns heads w/o having to have gaudy-_ss flash BS bolted on.

I'm just glad the people that own true classic f-bodies (1stgen & 70-73 2nd gen) don't desire this crap. (or any other classic owners)

What does look like total s__t is the fact the front & rear bumper wrap up to the body line and the gfx ar still ride the stock lower line. Even if the sides look good.. it looks like a__ as a package.

Of course.. just my opinion amongst the many.

 

I dont think anyone with 1st or 2nd gens would ever run GFX since those cars didnt come with GFX, it would look way out of place. What I dont really understand is why its OK for the C4 vettes to have bodykits and stuff, but its a no-no for the 3rd gen f-body. I think its because there are no good quality kits out there for us. I dont really like the idea of a new front clip because its trendy. I do like the idea of the front lip sitting lower to the ground, I think it looks more aggressive. Probably because I like the GT style. I finally have the stance I want with my Z28, but I'm not happy with the way the front clip sits in relation to the ground. Too much gap for me, so its gonna change.

 

Yeah, I would definatly like to see a "modest" bodykit that just imporved the lines of the car instead of drastically changing them.

 

i like the sideskirts...front and rear bumper tho....i dunno

 

Looks like the 91-92 Camaro

 

I would rather modify there Camaro rear one for a bird. This one seems too rounded! The center of the front is fine. esp if you were going to run an innercooler. But the darn front sides are throwing me. I don't like the curve in! Should be more angular & sweep out not in!

Its also a bad angle. I want to see it straight on Frt and back!

 

Not impressed with it. The front and rear completly take away from the car, and the side skirts don't blend in either. Oh well not for me...

 

F'ing horrible!!! Absolutely disgusting!! :nono: :no:

 

Also have camaro stuff on their site. Yikes.

 

i have to disagree with almost everyone here.

i think the side skirts DO NOT go well with the kit.

the front and rear look good, while the sides look out of place

im glad that companies are finally starting to put products out for our cars and finally now i can maybe compete against some other cars that are "different" like mine

iroc2nv

i personally think that my front end looks better on my car then it does on that black car..plus i have the "seamless look" now too, which also helps

but thats just my opinion
