weetsj 39 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Whats the point of getting a kit that makes a car look cool and fast but is actually pretty slow? it's for making it look cool, not fast. you dont buy cool clothes to look fast, right? i like my spark and only want to make it look more cool than it already is Link to post Share on other sites
bluer101 241 Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 You don't buy a body kit to go fast, lol. AyEyprul 1 Link to post Share on other sites
weetsj 39 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 there is a bodykit for the new spark availi The problem with all these kits is that the front bumper piece will not fit USA Sparks. All the other 3 pieces will. I want the one pictured in white and need to find a front. If someone out there in the retail world is listening please make a kit for 2013 USA Sparks. there is one now for the new spark: http://www.koreanautoimports.com/store/product_info.php?cPath=149_426_428&products_id=15871 Link to post Share on other sites
Greg_E 211 Posted June 30, 2013 Author Share Posted June 30, 2013 Always for the 2LT, the rear bumper is very different, and something about the lip on the front bumper is supposed to be different from the lower models. Link to post Share on other sites
Lovgun7 75 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 dame that looks cool. but it looks to fit the LS and 1LT.... i dont know after i saw the prices on the kits ... its taken a backseat in my spark budget. Link to post Share on other sites
bluer101 241 Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 I wonder what the kit is made of and can it come painted to match. I like that kit a lot. Link to post Share on other sites
Greg_E 211 Posted July 1, 2013 Author Share Posted July 1, 2013 Says it is FRP or Fiber Reinforced Plastic, I would expect it comes primer or raw plastic color. Link to post Share on other sites

Greg_E 211 Posted August 16, 2013 Author Share Posted August 16, 2013 (edited) I don't think you can, that looks like the EU bumper cover, the USA has a larger upper grille and different shape to the other grille parts. Or they are mixing the 2LT bumper with the regular (no roof rails) car. Edited August 16, 2013 by Greg_E Link to post Share on other sites

Or they are mixing the 2LT bumper with the regular (no roof rails) car. That whole kit will fit our cars except for the front bumper. We just need a solution to the US front bumper. I love that kit. I email a eBay vendor for the kit above in blue. This is the factory kit overseas in S Korea. They sell the front and rear on eBay for free worldwide shipping painted to match. I asked them about the side skirts. They told me their is a size limitation for the side skits that they will cost $900 because of the size/length. Here is the rear skirt: http://www.ebay.com/itm/200929499348?item=200929499348&viewitem=&sspagename=ADME:X:RTQ:MOTORS:1123&vxp=mtr Link to post Share on other sites

They sell the other kit for your car. I would buy the sides and back. Then find a proper front piece. Link to post Share on other sites
weetsj 39 Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 I know, but i (we, 5 people) already ordered bodykits and spoilers from hi motors. ETA 6 september maybe you can ask hi motors for the side and rear pieces. i ordered only the rear before, but the side is not in the list, but you can always ask. (tell them i said hi ) Sir Micheal Shin is the president, and i have contact with Shirley. shirley@hi-motors.com michaelshin7@gmail.com http://hi-motors.com/bbs/zboard.php?category=1&id=GM&PHPSESSID=93ed8d005d967220a394f3fdfd1de642 these we ordered: Link to post Share on other sites

Spark_Rules-0713 9 Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 (edited) Solution, get EU front bumper? That's the bumper I want the original bumper before they changed it for the US here's a pic it's closer to the Beat Concept Here's Beat Concept This is the look I'm after my Spark is a Jalapeno LS Automatic here's mine All I have to do is get rid of that hideous bumper and add this spoiler to get this look in the rear It's a shame Chevy didn't keep it a 3 door just like the Beat Concept instead of a 5 door I found this Concept drawing the Spark was destined to be a 5 door look: Concept is on left and Production is on the right: GM ruined an amazing 3 door design it had a 1.2 litre Turbo Charged 4 cylnder and 17 inch rims with with 4 wheel disc Brembo brakes Edited August 17, 2013 by Spark_Rules-0713 Link to post Share on other sites
psquare75 35 Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 The Beat concept front bumper reminds me of this. Link to post Share on other sites
Greg_E 211 Posted August 17, 2013 Author Share Posted August 17, 2013 And that's why we like it. I'm sure some executive decided it looked sad and made them change it. Maybe I don't want a happy smiling car, maybe I want one that says I'm a pissed off person on a budget, get out of my way! hogue2112 and weetsj 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Greg you hit the nail on the head I wanted a Camaro but I'm poor so a Spark is all I could afford or a beize Sonic sedan I'm very glad I bought the Spark I wonder if anyone remembers SKIDZ from Tranformers 2 AKA Beat Concept This is an amazing looking car why change it? If I had a choice for a mini SUV I want this I would rather have this This is Awesome! but I want Jalapeno Edited August 17, 2013 by Spark_Rules-0713 weetsj 1 Link to post Share on other sites
