New 07 Spectra owner considering factory body kit

todd · 07-11-2007, 04:44 PM

Hey all, I just bought my first Spectra and really like it, the dealer offers a body kit that I'm interested in, but they dont seem to have any pics of the kit on a car. So i was wondering if someone here might have some pics they can share with me so I can get a idea if I want them. I thank you all for any help here

I'm pretty sure that the body kit they are selling is either the Mystery body kit that KFX is selling or the stock lip kit that came on my Spec5. Either way it's an improvement if you were asking for opinions. Hope you find what you are looking for.

I think its the stock lip kit. Someone else asked this quesiton in the past and I posted some pics of my car seeming it has the stock lip kit. Let me find it and I will link it to here.

Well I did get my body kit. Kia calls it the Customized factory kit, it looks pretty cool, but still dont have it on my car. Actually I havent seen any other spectra with this kit yet. I took my car to the body shop to have the kit painted and installed, but the body shop manager ended up stealing my car! My car was recovered (with damage) and I plan on getting the ground effects painted and installed soon. I will post pictures when its all done.

uh oh better get maaco! sorry couldnt resist... good luck on getting the damage repaired, mabey you could post us some before and after pics.

That really sucks about your car. How much damage was done? Good luck.

Sorry didnt get any before pictures of the damage, left that for the insurance company. The damage totaled around $2000 dollars. It went into the body shop this morning to get it all fixed up. Was going to have my ground effects painted also at the same time my car was being fixed, but after paying my $500 deductable I think I should wait. Really sucks cause I already paid to have my ground effects painted and installed, but since that guy is the one who stoled my car, well he skipped out with my money and the ground effects were never painted.

Well I finally got my ground effects painted, but havent put on my car yet. I'm waiting on some parts from KIA (hardware and such). I did find out though the ground effects package is called "tuner edition" I will post pics though as soon as its all installed.
