Smile Just ordered bodykit!!

I just put in my order for the ABP body kit! I think it looks sweet plus very few cars where I live have them. I ordered it from this site and of course it was MUCH cheaper then the dealer. Ive already taken off my mud guards and cant wait until the kit arrives! I also looked up the install and will be doing it myself, since the kit already about broke me!

I have been thinking about ordering the body kit also. Let me know how you like it and how hard it is to put on.

Damn, I hate you bastards!! I've been trying to convince the wifey to get the body kit, but it's hard to shell out that kind of money when you have other expenses ("but it looks so sweet honey"!)...
Fvck, I should have just put em' on before I got married.
Enjoy your new mod!

Yup, you gotta love the kit. Makes the car look more aggressive.

Tell her its a manufacturers recall and you have to install these extra parts to preserve your warranty and avoid serious problems later ..

She's a lawyer so i'm sure she knows every trick in the book, nice try though
You think if i opened the "bloo_tls02 body-kit" fund on here , people would contribute to it

Did you order the body kit from Tim? I am thinking of ordering just the spoiler. I'd love the kit but living in NYC I just think it'll get scraped too often by the potholes, etc.

I got the bodykit put on after i got the car. I checked with the dealerships and they seem to quote different prices. One told me $1500 including installation, and another told me $1700. RIP OFF!!!! But i got mine through this site for $890 and had it installed for $200 at the dealer (i wanted it done right and under warranty ) . So basically i paid $1090 installed and saved $400-600.

You will not be disappointed with the body kit and what it does for the look of your car. I also ordered mine from Tim last summer and saved about $500. Still getting tons of compliments!

Thumbs up

My dealer quoted me a price of almost $1200 dollars for the kit w/o install. I bought the kit from Tim for like $899.99 including $60 for shipping. Im still debating on rather to do the install myself or let the dealer do it. I dont have lots of confidence in my local dealers mechanics, plus they told me they've only installed ONE kit before. So I will probably do it myself and save the $200 dollars. For the people saving up $ to get the kit, do what I did and CHARGE IT! Works especially good if you have 0.00% introductory rate for a few months!!
