I'm probably going to be making body kits soon with DIY, a new business that just started up here in Arizona to provide cosmetic parts for woos. Were starting this week on building me a R34 body kit for my car. If all goes well we'll make another kit (of a different kind---I wanna be the only owner with an R34 kit) of whatever you guys vote on...make a mold of that so we can easily make as many as needed. Price will be resonable...not sure yet really. One of a kind kits will also be available for probably around $1500 for a 4pc kit to the owners liking.
For now make a list of your favorite style body kit (examples; venom, bomber, f1, grip, ect...) and when the I think the list comes to a stop I'll make another post with pictures of each kit and have you guys vote.
I'm not exactly sure how soon this can all get started, the company I'm working with wants to focus on my body kit and getting there own lineup started first.
We also talked about making carbon fibre hoods now...so post an style hoods you guys want. We'd be making it for my car but its so easy to make a mold after ones already made so that could happen soon I'd hope. Also if you looking just for the looks and not the lightweight advantage you can get blackglass which looks identical but at 1/3 the cost.
So let me get this straight you got a company to make a body kit for you and us. As well as carbon hoods. And this same company also wants to work on its own line up as well. Will this line up include kits for our car?

DIY Kustoms is run by a guy who drives an Aveo... he feels our pain
Feeling our pain, and making tylonal for it is two different things
one must feel the pain, but those who are great make the asperian for it once its felt

He's working on his own lineup for the aveo...most likly the kits and any other parts we make for our cars will be sold through me since I will be working hand and hand with him on those specific parts (needs a forenza to work on).
Once he has his own line up for aveo parts togather we will likly be able to offer any interior peices....most likly on group buy or if you wanna dish out the money a one off. As well as many other things.
A suggestion -- you guys might consider developing relatively inexpensive lip kits for front and rear. Side skirts too. It can do a lot to change the lines of the car, and it probably would fit the budget of more drivers of our cars.
A nice-looking kit made of quality ABS with a 3M install should be fairly easy to develop - make a fiberglass master, and have someone pour molds from it. From a business perspective, that would make sense for you, and would most likely sell more than full kits. The economy of it might be a better profit-maker.
I know I could better justify the money if it was cheaper -- and I would feel better about a good local-built kit than some cheap plastic junk being shipped across the Pacific in who-knows-what condition.
