icebird_1981

yep that kit has been all around this board.

RMK

Yes, infact now you mention it I believe I've got some pics of a black car with the kit on. I've never seen it from that angle before, that's what threw me.

Its name is actually the "Kobel" or "Predator" body kit by mck plastics. Cost around $500 and is availible through jcw.com

It is the Kobel Predator. You can order it from Classics Industries too, its in their catalog. They do make a version of it with a slightly different front end for the 91-92 Firebirds too. For pics of the Firebird version, you can go to my site:

So does this fit on Camaro's too? I like the rear bumper. 82 Camaro has it on his Camaro but I didnt find any more pics or info on his website. Did it require modifications to fit a Camaro? How well do you think it would match 91-92 sideskirts? Or got any closeups of the rear?

Body kits and f bodys should never even be said in the same sentence.

CrazyHawaiian

Hey now theres a usefull comment. I guess I should just go remove the stock front lip and sideskirts (AKA BODYKIT) off my 91 z28 and go offroading. In fact, why do we even need body panels, lets just remove everything.

25THRSS

If you wanna do that go ahead. I'll stick with the stock ground effects, I don't have a stock "body kit." I think the third gen camaros and trans ams already look perfect as far as the body goes. No mods need to be done in this department. You wanna **** your camaro out, go ahead, its your car. I cringe every time I see a picture of a beautiful f body destroyed like that. Thats just me, I'm sure other people disagree. If I wanted to put a body kit on my car I would have bought a honda.

easySPEEDcamaro

can somebody tell me where i can get this bodykit for the camaro?

i can't seem to find it on their website...

The exact link to my 82 camaro on my site:

You just did
If you don't like it, don't do it to your car.

CrazyHawaiian

Oh I get it. So modifying anything on the body of a Camaro makes it ****. Yeah ... Riiiiiiiight. Just to let you know, a body kit, aero kit, and ground effects are all the same thing. Pieces that attach to the body to aid in better aerodynamics. So like it or not, you drive a 92 RS with a BODYKIT (OMG HE SAID IT) hahahhahaha. So now you have a choice .... very important choice. Either you remove your BODYKIT or go buy a Honda?? Whats it gonna be??? LOL

So somehow this turned from "Have you seen this before?" into "OMG ANYTHING YOU DO IS **** GO BUY A HONDA". Yeah ok. Just to let you know I cringe everytime one of you obsessed anti-**** ***** post this kinda BS. Talk about a waste of board space.

no fighting no fighting lol there is nothing wrong with putting something like a body kit on your car. okay so there are some rules like nothing too outrageious. but there is nothing wrong with it my car came with the stock body kit and i plan on replaceing it with something a little bit different but still with the stock look if i could find what i'm looking for but i havn't tried vary hard. anyway my point is there is nothing wrong with body kits.

icebird_1981

man i was just sayin this in another post... and here it is again, how alot of people on here just think body kits on thirdgens are wrong and bla bla bla, i wish they had more body kits for r cars. thats why i wont post nothing haveing to do with custom body work, u will get bashed on. i still say the evalution body kit or what ever its called is amazing and this one is amazing and if i had the money i would do it in a sec. so anyone that slaps a kit on your thirdgen or mod it in some why, i give u all props!!

icebird_1981

how can anyone say this is ugly.

Sonar_un

I have no idea.. .it doesn't even look like a thirdgen anymore, its in its own class... deffinitely not ugly.

Irhal

the black car is a 3rd gen???? whoa, very nice but I wouldn't have notice if this was not a 3rd gen forum... very nice... I personally don't want any body kit for my car.. but I don't mind others doing it, unless it kills the 3rd gen spirit... youw ant a body kit? your car, go ahead... ppl, please, stop fighting over opinions

CAMp3RO

the evolution is technically a "kit car" not a body kit, but no need to be picky . the only thing i dont like about it are the non-functioning scoops on the roof. they just dont do it for me. everything else looks good and wouldnt mind doing it if i had the money and a 3rd gen that was beat up (would never do it to a mint or near mint car). i also am a big fan of the kobel kit. not too flashy and the bumpers just make the car look beefier

Dan88IrocZ

That is a body kit that I would consider WORTH putting on a 3rd gen (the blue convertible). Damn, if it's only $500 bucks too!

TransAm12sec

Ehh, I like the side effects but the bumper looks like it has a fat a**, as my dad says for the new vettes.

admrlam

I agree completely, thats why i took the back bumper pieces off my car

Maybe in June, ill get around to taking the rest off....

Some people oughta lighten up a bit, don't let others opinions get under your skin...

Is that black car really an F-body?? Man you would never know it that's for sure. The blue one above it is cool looking too. Not sure if I really like the front bumper too much though. Anybody got a shot of that one from the rear? The back looks really cool from what I can see. I love flared fenders like that, really gives it a road racer look..

Dont like the kit on the firebird. Id seen the F1 kit before and it looks pretty damn cool. That blue convertable is AWSOME tho sure its well beyond my price range tho cause i know an F1 is like $10,000 but anyways..just adding my 2 cents yall go ahead and keep arguing.
