Honestly, i'm not sure!!!! But if it was only availible in the US. I could just always get relaitives, or friends in the states to order the thing, then send it up my way...........
: )

That GA, kinda looks like the GXP (minus the pearl paint job)

SikMindz · 04-28-2003, 11:09 PM

Yeah...the tails are exactly the same and the side panels are very similar as they used the GXP sides as a model for them.

cyoonak · 04-28-2003, 11:36 PM

alright, FINALLY a kit worthy of the GA. I think I've fallen in love with the GA all over again!

Josh · 04-29-2003, 06:01 AM

this is the time that I wish I had a new GA.

SikMindz · 04-29-2003, 07:59 AM

I know it's soon, but please keep me informed if you receive any replies or confirmations of delivery to the addresses!

Someone should print off this thread and mail it to that address!!! Lots of good points and all kinds of views here!!!

claymore · 04-29-2003, 08:26 AM

All I can say is, If they make this, i hope its available in individual parts, and Those headlamps, hood and side molding are going to be mine.

You can do that as well! I've already fwd'ed web addresses and links to these threads on all the separate forums to the designers of the kit and they want to thank everyone for the enthusiasm but PLEASE keep the letter campaign going as INternet forums just might not be enough!

MysteriousGT1 · 04-29-2003, 08:57 AM

Hey Sik...how did you get started talking with them about this...did you meet them at the show and kinda run things by them?

I could have gone and seen this in person but Oh no... I had to work 12 freakin hours. maybe its better i wasnt there i woulda busted a load on that beautiful car! Hmm yeah Im so glad I got to work from 11AM-11PM instead of goign to the car show to see this thing in person and talk about it with the designers. Grrrr ok I'm done now.

Ill be writing a letter... 1. get rid of amber side markers 2. make rear bumper more "interesting" its so round and boring it almost dissapears in a matter of speaking. 3. move intake openings in hood up further so it might actualy get this... TAKE IN air. i love the front it reminds me of the camaro.

the front reminds me of the late model dodge stratus......IMO.....

So true, now that I think about it

SpyhunteR · 04-29-2003, 11:20 AM

reminds me of an rsx personally

blckgagt · 04-29-2003, 11:48 AM

don't bash me for saying any of this but i think....

front end- ugly, needs to have more sharp curves instead of the smooth lines they have on it
tailights-ugly, im not a big fan of them
wing-i actually like the wing, like someone already said it makes it look more of a rally car
hood-again they need to put more sharp curves on it
headlights- i like them a lot, and yeah get rid of the amber.

althought im not a fan of this at all, it can definitely help the aftermarket for our cars, and i support this 100% for all those who are interested in the kit

DeuceGT · 04-29-2003, 02:30 PM

wow, that is pretty awesome, just needs to lose that spoiler...

Yes I met the two head designers at the IAS SEMA show last weekend and spoke to them both personally. I introduced myself as a member of GrandAmGT.com and they were extremely glad to have a GA enthusiast there at the debut! For the past few days I have been corresponding with one of the designers linking him to various sites that I have posted on (OR got banned from

) in order to show him the support; he's loving it!

Just to clear it up I am in NO WAY affiliated with them however, both designers were awesome guys and very accomodating and helpful in ansering my questions...and still are!

Don't worry...that's why I posted it here!

What you don't like PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE write into the addresses I gave and tell them what you would like to see changed. This is in no way the final production and they are looking for AS MUCH feedback as possible!

Doug · 04-29-2003, 04:22 PM

I love it!! I was about to buy a new front bumper cause mine is cracked but I'mm gonna hold off in case this is made. MY FMIC would look awesome on the front

Ive seen a few posts like yours man... I hope the damage isnt too bad. Since every one seems to be putting off other stuff to buy the kit should it come out... any one know how long that might take???

Im just curiouse I imagine it will be a while. Its great to see so many people liking this kit. It finaly looks like an American car with American aftermarket kit. Not some crazy American car with import stuff tacked on last minute. (not to put down anyone that likes the ohter looks)
