NICE! I like the extended lines on the headlights! Really aggresive! Not sure if it's just the incomplete nature of the kit or not, but I'm seeing what looks like the side of a mustang with the scoop things. Let me know when the 92-95 model comes out! ;-)

I'd been deciding between AED and AAS, or mixing both, and for a while I decided to leave the stock kit on mine. But now I most definitely know what I want. I know this puppy will be on my GA shortly after it comes out. Who's selling it?

I don't think I like it at all. Nope, I don't. Don't know why tho...theres just something about it that doesn't appeal to me. AAS all the way. Soon enough, too.

I just cant stand AAS rear facia, it looks like a riced out kit becasue of the back, thats why ive always been an AED guy myself. htough this kit looks nice, though the GA has got to keep its ribbing, it looks too much like an alero without the ribs

TA^Guy
10-10-2003, 08:17 PM
Not a bad kit at all. I like the front. Not sure about the sides, I hope they atleast make a door filler panel to match the rocker panels. The rear isn't bad and the spoiler is tasteful.

10-10-2003, 09:59 PM
Not sure about the price on this one.... if it's anything like the other kits probably 900+......

Look for something "similar" from GM in March... for about 1/2 the cost ;)

Just wondering, do they have any plans for the 98's?

Kit looks alot like the American Tuner, which I like... I like the kit so far cuz it keeps alot of the features of the GA but just exagerates them a little.

I don't like the other kits cuz they destroy the original look of the GA and turn it into their own.

I like the Andy's Auto Sport kit but it's just too drastic for me.

It's funny how everyone is talking about the Rockers on that concept, whether they like them or not... it's obvious those rockers are styrofoam taped to the sides, they probably aren't even supposed to look like anything yet... my guess is they are just getting a fitting measurement. They are completely squared off, no design to them yet.

SikMindz
10-11-2003, 12:33 AM
Actually this is pretty much exactly like the GXP/HotWheels concepts we all saw awhile ago. I really like how this kit came out...if it wasn't for the "project" that I'm working on right now I'd probably have to pick myself up one of these.

Now I wonder...is GM going to be releasing the American Tuner kit? Or having them contract RKS for this version of the Hotwheels/GXP pretty much it?

XtremeGrandAm
10-12-2003, 11:39 PM
That kit looks great. I really like it. I'll have to wait and see how much it costs though

as for price, it will be 700 for presale and 1000 once in production.

the four-door GA will be out 2 months later after the 2 door kit is out.

It will be contracted much like ASC making the SC/T kit. Dealers will begin carrying these kits soon. I'll keep you all updated with details as they become available.

Well when this kit comes out for the 4dr, I'm sold! I like AED and all but was just seeing too much of it and not alot of other options of kits for our GA's, Not to mention that the AAS kit looks too riced out. Here's a better pic of the spoiler and side:D

it's been said that rksport only makes kits in urethane...if that is true....doesn't that mean that the kit wouldn't need any body work done before painting...except minor stuff?

RAZING
10-15-2003, 07:57 PM
The front is nice except for the fact that it does not accomodate the fog lights. They seem out of place there.

As for the sides, they have no shape to them.

Is the rear going to show the frame of the car like AAS does?

And will pieces be sold separately?

EuroStar
10-16-2003, 06:35 PM
There's something about this kit I don't like, hmmm ohh I know the front look a lot like new grand prix, so why not just pick that up from dealership.

just my 2 cents

endsane
10-16-2003, 09:23 PM
I'm not a big fan of kits, especially on a GA, they look too much like a ricer. But that kit looks pretty good.

I don't like the sides or the spoiler...They look too....bulky?

But the front looks awesome

OK...you beat me to the punch cause I have been working with RKSport to get all the logistics worked on for us, you have some of the basics and some inaccuracies so here is the rest.
The group buy will last until Dec.15, 2003 after that you are out of luck, what you will get is a chance to save some major money and get one hell of a product.

Body Kit:
This is for the four door only; all pieces will be out of polyurethane,
this will include the front and rear fascia, side skirts and body panels. The kit will be available in mid to late January and our price will be $800.00 and then it will go up to $1295.00. Shipping to the east coast for example will be approx. 120.00

Hood:
Made out of re-enforced fiberglass, it has a functional ram air design and will be a direct fit bolt on. The hood will be available in beginning to mid January as well. The price for the will be $450.00 and then go up to $595.00. Shipping to east coast for example will be approx. $110.00.

Wing:
Will be out of polyurethane as well and will be available in the beginning to mid January. The price for this piece will be $250.00 and then will rise to $350.00. Shipping will be approx. $40.00-$50.00.

They are making these kits to require very little prep work so the money you spend for the body shop will go towards the materials and very little to labor. They are working very herd to get a real clean fitment.

I have been asked to help coordinate the pre-orders for this site and two others. We have been given special instructions to use on the orders for users of this site. Once you have made up your mind for the kit please contact me so I can put your name on the list. Once we are set I will present this to them and we will get the ball rolling all those who love their car.

This WILL set the precedence for future group buys with RKSPORT so it is VERY IMPORTANT that we play by the rules and work together so we have a collective buying power that will rival no other. AGAIN make contact with me so we can get this group moving in ONE direction. If you have ANY questions let me know by PM or by my email jkesterson@sc.rr.com.

Again it would be better if we run it the way described. What I am trying to do is show them that we can produce the business for them that can give us discounts beyond belief. We can buy collectively for an extreme savings. Make contact with me so I can run the list and present it at one time.

I will also see if I can get the buy extended since it only gives people three weeks to come up with money make it happen. I will try and present it that if your on my list then you will be locked in. I will let everyone know as soon as I find out.

That is a good point, but IMHO, that body kit is ugly, the side skirts littrally make me want to barf...and aed flows so much more than that, in the front end, GAs arent made to be boxy in the front end

and maybe it would help for me to see a painted version....

OK.... for those of you who are not able to get the money up in time for the deadline for the body kit, wing or hood I have another option!!

I am working on a deal to extend the offer out to all of those interested for two more weeks. The only way that this will happen is if your name is on my list. If your name is on my list then you will have two more weeks ( Dec.31 ) to pay for the stuff. I am waiting for confirmation for this arrangement and will know for sure tomorrow if this will be a go.

In order for use to show them our spending power I also need to know everyone's name that have already bought a kit, wing or hood and when you bought it so I can add you to our list.

By the way I have had very few responses to this offer, what is the hold up? We have another company providing a kit for us and no one wants to take them up on the offer. You will be saving some MAJOR MONEY!!!! I am just curious.

Whooooaaaa Trigger....I was not trying to start anything with you....and I never said you were lying or anything to that nature!! All I was saying was that the person you spoke with was incorrect. Either that or he knows something even all of his fellow employees do not, that was my point. I also understand the short notice thing also that is why I am trying to get the pre-but extended at least two more weeks to give more people time. Also.....NEVER stop trying to help someone!!!

I received clarification on this and it pertains to credit cards......they will put a hold on the funds but will not charge until the kit ships so you are not paying interest on the charge.

12-05-2003, 06:12 PM
OK you guys and gals….I have some bad news…….The Rep at RKSport made a mistake. Free shipping is NOT included, but never fear, I told them due to their mistake there would be some mad people if I let this one roll. The manager agreed that if we get enough people on the list to buy then he would reduce the shipping costs by a percentage based on how many people sign up.

Now for the big dilemma, there has only been ONE person that has committed to this new kit, wing or hood. I was able to get us an extension on the prices to the end of December based on whoever put their name on my list before next Friday or bought a kit. But so far like I said above this is not what is happening. If you need some extra time to pay this off I need your name ASAP so I can forward this to them and I need it by NEXT Friday at 5:00PM, so if you want in let me know.

so... if on a credit card, would the account be charged at the end of dec or when it ships?

robotix
12-06-2003, 11:25 AM
Exactley what they told me. They will put a hold on the funds though so you will not be able to use that amount but will not post until it ships so you are not paying interest on something you dont have.

I found a picture of the 4 door kit. I already ordered mine. I talked to the rep today. This kit looks alot better in this picture than the paint job on the GA on RKSport's website. I like the white on the car but what's up with the black on the hood.

This kit comes with the front & rear bumper, side skirts & door panels for $800 Hell of a price if you ask me!!!!

the hood (and wing) are completely carbon fiber. That picture is of the concept design which was the base for RKsport. The rksport kit has a few minor different edges. The lines on the hood (rksport) are the parts that they didnt paint. I like it actually and plan on ordering the hood too :)

SilverStreak
12-12-2003, 05:17 PM
No this is the American Tuner Grand Am. The cut outs in the front bumper are different. The GA in my other pic is the Hot Wheels concept Grand Am. Which is basically identical to the RKSport kit! "with minor differences"

You have all talked and complained about the timing of the kit and the prebuy so guess what?!?!? I have spoken to my contacts at RKSport and they have extended the buy for us!!!!!! They will let me know when it will end but it looks like we have another two to three weeks before it ends for sure. Again the only way you will be able to get in on this is to make contact by PM with myself.

There have been several people that have participated in this buy so far, it is going really well. If you are still interested please let me know and we will get you going on the buy. And remember that I will take NO monies from you, ALL payments will be made directly to RKSport!!!

Once we are set I will present this to them and we will get the ball rolling all those who love their car.

This WILL set the precedence for future group buys with RKSPORT so it is VERY IMPORTANT that we play by the rules and work together so we have a collective buying power that will rival no other. AGAIN make contact with me so we can get this group moving in ONE direction. If you have ANY questions let me know by PM or by my email jkesterson@sc.rr.com.

Alright boys and girls……………Here we go one more time……and the last time………..I have been in negotiation with RKSport for the last week and have got us a solid commitment on the last extension that there ever will be for the body kits. I have been given one more MONTH!!!!!!!!!!!!

They have been impressed with the sales and this is what we have been trying to do………show them there is an interest in aftermarket GA parts and damn did we show them. The only absolute way that you will be able to get in on it now is you MUST run your order through me.

This is a painless process and I take care of all the leg work for you, just ask manogagt from Grand Am Owners Club and he will tell you that I will get you taken care of !!!!! He had run into some accounting errors at RK and I took care of him and fixed his prob.

But anyways………one more month is what I have for everyone just PM me and I will get you set!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Update on 4-door RK kit. I called and talked to Mike this morning. He said that they are having a problem with some of the door panels not fitting properly and they don't want to start shipping until they get the problem worked out.
