8/25 Update on Body Kit GB for 98+ Contours.
What's up everyone? As most of you know, I ran into a major snag that put a disturbing delay on the kit. The company I purchased the donor kit from tried to hold on to over $1100 that I paid while they waited for a kit that was on back order until late september to be in stock. I now have that money back and we're ready to roll again.
Because of a number of reasons including the length of getting this off the ground, people buying other cars, others backing out and the CEG changing servers, we only have about 20 confirmed people who want to go in. For the $650 price quoted, we need at least 30. I am in the process of getting some more guys as I type this.
If I have to sell my soul to Satan himself, this group buy will happen. I feel bad that we did not meet my goal of having this wrapped up by the end of July but you have to roll with the punches. Everything is still lined up with Carisma so once I have a confirmed number, we're going to be moving forward either with Lennys SVT or mine. as usual, if any of you have any questions I can be reached at
groundefx@hotmail.com.
thanks for the update terry. sorry for the other post. just hadn't heard anything in a while.
Do you have any pictures of what this kit looks like? I assume that it doesn't come painted...
this is the same front end we're going with except it's on a mondeo in this picture. u get the idea though and yes it will be unpainted.
sideskirts
rear
the rear fascia will be somewhat similiar to this with room for exhausts of all sizes.
Will any part of this kit be able to fit pre-98 'tours? How bout making a kit for pre-98s,, it can't be that hard.. Pleazzzze!!!
The side skirts and rear will fit a Pre98. I'd just get Micah's front bumper and go with that.
Hellahydro,, will you sell the rear and side skirts separately? Anyway to make the front work? Can someone custom mold it for me for a decent price?
Just a couple of questions.
Is the front bumper going to be sticking out as little as a mondeo bumper?
Would the front and rear bumpers have the matching line thats on the doors and stock bumpers?
And will the sideskirts bolt up to the existing hardware?
Is this kit fiber glass or CF. How much lighter if any is it than stock? I gotta get those side skirts!!!
will this kit be available in the future from carism or is this a one time thing?
How much air flow is the front going to be seeing? Compared to stock, I will be using an aftercooler and I want cooling!!
Any ideas on how much more drag this is going to have versus stock?
I may very well be in on this, too...

no part will be sold separately. only way to get one piece is to go in with someone else. as leo and myself are doing. i'm sure someone can make the front fit. svt front bumpers have been fitted to pre 98's before micah got the pre 98 svt bumper developed. contact beyondloadedse for price info. he had the svt front bumper fitted to a pre 98.
I know of someone that wants a body kit for their Contour. The owner doesn't visit this site but I'll be sure to let her know about this to help get to the 30 peopled needed.
I am still in. I have already made the $100 deposit. Glad to see it is still going to happen. Great Job Hella. Thanks For all your work.
I haven't been following the CEG as much as normal, but for the record I am still in. Thanks for all your effort, I know how tough it can be to get group buys and things like that moving.
Thanks for the update. Im am still in of course.
i'd like a front end if anyone with a pre-98 wants sides n rear...... let me know!
PM speed demon,, big ol' PM for ya
i believe me and speed demon are in for a kit, so let us know when the money is due... i'm talking to a girl at school bout getting one too,, she has money so she's gotta convince her parents,, in fact the front may go on her mom's car....
hey waht kind of rear and sides do you have? svt? let me know... ill make a deal with you. thanks
Alas!! welcome back Terry. We missed you for a while now. Bring on the body kit.. i'm in no matter what, as was in the beginning. Keep us updated.
hey hella how are the body kits going so far? do u got them done or still working? i ordered one so i wanna know when its gonna be ready. thanks
hey hella any news on the kit
Things are about ready to roll with the body kit and I'm now compiling the final list of everyone going in on the group buy. If you are in and are willing to place a deposit of $150 by September 13 to hold your spot, please get back to me at
groundefx@hotmail.com. If you have already placed a deposit, stay tuned as your dreams for a body kit finally come true. As soon as everyone has placed a deposit, a final release date will be set for the kit (mid-late October at the latest). Remember the total for the kit will be $650 and your deposit will go towards that final price. A final list will be posted as soon as I have all the deposits and information frome everyone going in.
Terry
I am willing to send the deposit as soon as I see pics. Sorry for the "Doubting Thomas" attitude.
Sweet, can you post those who have already deposited? I know you got mine, just so were all on the same page.
Thanks
That's some of the best news I have heard in a long time. Now hopefully every one who said they were in will send there deposits. Mine was one of the first ten. Hella you should email every one who showed intrest. And mabye post it again over at FCO. Thanks again for the good news.
unfortunately, you will not be able to go in on this group buy if you want wait around for pictures. i tried to play mr. nice guy for a while and lost months of time trying to get more and more people to get in on this. 30 people is all we need and as soon as I have deposits from all 30 people, we're rolling.
Terry.. i know you've been trying to get a good body kit ever since last year something.... i remember reading when i searched for some other stuff. Well, just keep it up Terry. I've got my faith.
Later
Glad to see it up and going. I already made my deposit as well. I was with the first ten and deposited $100. So if you are needing more then let me know. My e-mail is
matthew_holbrook@hotmail.comThat is the paypal acct. I deposited from.
do we paypal to your e-mail you have listed?? u will be receiving $75 from me and $75 from speed demon... we'll decide later who the kit gets sent to.
Deposit PayPal'd quite awhile ago!
hey i want in on this group buy for that sick body kit only thing i need to know is where to send the cash
thats great news thanks terry
I sent you an email but I wanted to know how rare is this kit going to be?
Oh, and I live in California and there's a company called Carisma out here that manufactures body kits aswell, wondering if this is who you are dealing with. Thanks, expect my depost by Friday.
Can we paypal the deposite to the
groundefx@hotmail.com email??
Whats the latest Hella? I'm still standing by....

We're at 25-26 and I have a few people I'm waiting to hear back from you so whoever else wants to go in on this kit, make sure you post here or e-mail me at
groundefx@hotmail.com. This will be ending in the next few days and no more spots will be available. My contact at Carisma said that they are unsure if they will be producing this kit after the the group buy so this could be your last chance to get an amazing kit at an amazing price. At the very least it will not be available for another 6 months after the GB.
Hella did you get my money? Sent today around 8:00. Let me know.
let me know if you got my money too
Just For list info I was going in on the kit with KnuKonceptz and he send in the deposit... Just for reference purposes I will be getting the front and he will be getting the sides and the rear...Keep us posted...
I'm posting a link to this page at
www.fordcontour.orgThere were 2 people over there asking about body kits.
Whats the latest Terry? Did we make the mark of 30? Do you think there would be a way to have these kits numbered increasing the rareity? I think that further down the road this might greatly increase the value of our cars...and then again maybe not
Just a thought.
Is the GB still on. I'll put a down payment ASAP.
BMG98svt@hotmail.com
yeah, i'm waiting on a few more responses but we're lingering around the 30 area which means we're ready to roll Monday morning. The donor kit will be purchased this week (again) and immediately shipped to Carisma. there will be no problems receiving the kit this time and Carisma should receive it sometime in the early part of next week. I will post as soon as this has been completed.
Lenny, if you could e-mail me at
groundefx@hotmail.com or
hellahydro@hotmail.com or just check your PM's, that would be great
.
mmmmmmmmm......... numbering kits.......
me likey!
Hey Terry, can you disclose the list when you've reached the 30?
could u post updated list on paid persons thankzzz
Since most of us have our State in the sig could you also put down what state those that have paid are in? I'd like to see the spread on this. (i'm a business major and the classes are getting to me
)
California
that would be sweet,, i hope i'm the only in georgia
if its not too late, im interested in going in w/ someone. i want the sides and rear for my 97
I have some new details on the body kit that is very exciting. We will be moving the body kit from Carisma Auto Tech to Andys Auto Sport where I will be working directly with their designer/production guy to get this Group Buy off the ground. The price will stay at $650 as originally planned and we are still on the same schedule as before.
We now have the opportunity to have a kit custom designed for our car, all the way from sketches to a final kit. If we choose to go this route, we're looking at 3 months for everything to be complete and the kit shipped to your door. If we go with the RS4 kit as planned which is a kit for the Audi A4, we're looking at a month and a half for the kits to be complete as originally planned.
I'm heavily leaning towards going with a custom design thats based on the principals all 30+ of us are looking for and unless for some insane reason there is a conflict with this, we will be going this route.
We now have the opportunity to get Projector Headlights, Fiberglass hood with custom scoops, custom fenders, wide body kits and damn near anything body-wise that the interest is there for. I will be working out Group Buy's for all of these things depending on the interest from the CEG.
I hope everyone here shares the level of excitement as this is a pretty large step the Contour has just made for custom aftermarket parts. The Body Kit will continue as is, we will now just be working with a fresh new design that is made specifically to flow well with the lines of our cars. I will also be working out a deal to get the Pre-98's a front end to match this body kit as well. As usual, I can be reached at groundefx@hotmail.com . Thanks for your support.
Terry
Damn, that is exciting news! Nice work, Terry!
I'm happy with the current design:
Oh, and put me on the list for projector headlights.
I personally like the front and rear of the RS4 kit but what if we added some fenderflares designed like these...
Then we could run some "sick" wide tires. Porsche anyone?
terry great job i think that i have waited this long i can wait longer for a cust body kit i will help if You need it
hay i am the designer that will be doing your kit. I am currently at Andy's Autosport as the director of R&D but I am starting my own design studio with in the month. We will specialize in headlight taillight and widebody conversions, turbo kits, intakes, exhaust systems, and pretty much anything else to go in or with a car or truck. If you guys are interested with a widebody kit as said earlier we could do that after the first kit is done. I hope to see you guys giving terry a big thank you and i hope you will be pleased with my craftsmanship.
You looking for any apprentices? I would love to help out.
Hey i'm not to far from you, wonder if I can drop by sometime to check out how everything is going with the kit
i like the current kit,, future aesthetics mods will be nice though.
Given the amount of time that has been put into this already, I'd like to go with whatever the shortest plan is...I like the current plan and I would like it in a month!
Thanks,
Conor

Thanks,
Conor
agreed, i'd like somethin seksie but i need this kit to be done in the near future so i can move forward with the tear down this winter.
I think it would be better to go with the original plan and stick with this kit.. Everyone that went in on the group buy liked the original idea thats why they signed up and sent in deposits.. I think since we have waited long enough we should get this group buy done first and then think about something else... Good job though Hella on getting this back on track... A month sounds great to me...

me too!
I like the current kit too, that's why i made the deposit but I would like to know what you had in mind for the 'custom' kit? I think that would rock! If it's different enough people won't compare it to another kit or car.
If you could supple sketches within a week I think some of us would rather wait for that if the sketchs look worth while. Personally I can wait till Dec/Jan since schools in session and most of my time is devoted to studying currently.
i can't wait for months, but personally think it'll be hard to make a kit that looks better than the current plan...can u post a new list of paid peoples...
Hella -- I won't be ordering a kit, but I wish I had another contour to mess around with. Your kits are gonna look awesome! You should definitely try to copyright the design. That would make these ground effects a real "Limited Edition" and possibly even ADD value to these SVTs as time goes by...
Nice work!
not all contours are SVTs
And not all SVT's are Contours
Will this kit fit on a 99 mystique?
I stand corrected
Hella,
I would suggest the same, draw a few concepts and then let everyone decide was is the kit to go with. I would be willing to wait a couple of extra weeks to see if thier was a better design to go with than currently. If you need any help just give a shout. later..
Originally posted by JonGordo8:

I believe the side skirts and back bumper will, But your front fascia is different, the shape of the grill mostly, and maybe the headlights, but we'll wait for the experts to answer for sure.
you are correct sir, only thing that won't bolt directly up is the front bumper unless you make a mod or two.
Terry can you Post everyone who has paid the deposit....Thanks
earlier i posted i can't wait,,, i meant to say i can wait...too late to edit...if the kit can be made to look better, that would be awesome...i really like the current kit though.
Well due to an overwhelming response, we will be going with the same kit as planned it looks like. I underestimated how much you guys liked the original design. I will have some more details hopefully tomorrow so check back.

btw, for you Mystique guys, this front end should fit with minor modifications that just about any body shop can handle.
Your saying we can get all that, inc. fiberglass hood w/ scoop of our own design for 650, or will it be extra for the other $hit?
What happened to me. I was in this group buy but I have yet to pay the down payment. I can't get ahold of Hella by e-mail. Can someone help me out.
Hehe, so far i'm the only one ont he Pacific side! :-D I hope only GBers are voting!
not that it's a big deal or anything but my name is kremit...not kermit

Hella, when you say the same kit as planned, which is that? I haven't been around much of this GB, and I don't really intend to read this whole thread. I'm assuming you're referring to the pics shown above of the front, side and rear body kit as we talked about via email.

Umm.. where does Hawaii check?
I found a site in the UK that has a body kit similar to this. They also have other kits available. The price has to be converted from pounds and the shipping would be high but it could be another possiblity???
prosport home page The kits are for Mondeo's but maybe it would work for us?
mondeo kits wont work contourlover
my brother just left keneohe (sp?) 2 weeks ago or so, hes an 0300 forgot which unit he was in though
Lance CPL Nick Thalken... ever meet him? wow small world
Opps I just noticed my Poll was incorrectly labeled. Well anyways doesn't matter we'll know sooner or later when the PICS Forum is flooded with Pics of our cars.
I'm putting in my vote for this rear again
I also would go for this front end with out the extra side crap
That is the best looking contour I have maybe ever seen.
I love that car. By far the best work on a contour.

All I have to say is not a Mondeo. Maybe the confusion because of how nice that ride is. So is this our kit or what?
Hey Hella,
This is the front bumper right? If it is I ikes!!!!!!!!!!
Man do i want those Headlight
WHEN can we get this kit ? how much longer ? and how do i get on the group buy list ? i WANT to fix my Contour up some LOL

Sorry, I was referring to the blue Mondeo - didn't know if they were complimenting Spatt's nice SVT or the Mondeo.
it will be a great day when this group buy is done and I dont have to take another peek at that hideous mondeo. u guys are killing me posting that garbage.....
still waiting on the word back from our guy, will update as soon as I hear from him.
You kill me, Terry!
Only thing I like about that Mondeo is the color and the headlights!
All I can say for the Mondeo is the headlights.
Hey Hella are we still looking at a month and a half like was originally thought if we stayed with the original design. Just getting a little restless I cant wait to be the only one around with this kit...

I know just how you fell. I live around about 3 other SVT's and I 'm pretty sure they are not in this group buy.
me too

there are more than just one of you in nebraska? hahahaaaaaa, just kidding. i cant wait to see these kits because i need someones svt rear bumper. if you are selling one pleas PM me. later.
Once some of the peeps getting the body kit are you going to sell the old one. i am the front spoiler from mirko.any intrest pre 98's
Im wondering about the shipping !!!!!
thats going to be the killer ...>>>im ready to send in my deposit depending on the shipping , alos talked to a guy today about painting them , he first gave me a price of 600.00 to 700.00 , then 500.00 so i dont know yet
Shipping is not going to be an issue, it should be somewhere between $30-$50 at the most. We're looking at 2 1/2 weeks when the donor contour will be provided and the kit will be custom fitted to the car. So we're pretty much on schedule which is good. if anyone has any questions, feel free to contact me at
groundefx@hotmail.com.
I guess it pays to have friends that work in bodyshops, and love sidework. Painted body kit = $100 + 1 case of Bud Light
(For anyone who is wondering, it should take a little less than 1 quart to paint it. Don't let them quote you more.)

Now thats a hook up
Anybody know what kind of paint this is? Looks great. Maybe if I get 20 grand together i can have this kit custome made for my car. To bad theres no love for the 95 mystique
4th dimension of hell heading to the 5th...
hella,
when do you expect to need the rest of the money?
mid-late october when the kit has been molded on the Contour. I'll post if for some reason that changes.
I'm getting excited again.. I noticed it a few weeks ago, and today I saw it again, the paint on my back bumper is peeling off! The spot is about the size of a 20oz bottle laying horizontal. I plan to make my current bumpers winter ones anyway so I'm not too worried, but I can't wait to get this kit!
LOL i cant wait either , does anyone have troubles sending private messages ? i sent him 3 of them asking if he got my deposit OK and i didnt get a reply ,even though he's online ......not sure what to do , i have also e mailed so .....hmmmm
Citation I've sent you private messages and an e-mail confirming that i received your deposit. you may want to check things out on your end.
Yeah i did , sorry about that ..
i used hotmial for my paypal although i use yahoo now so thats why
No problem
I don't know if it was discussed earlier in the 15 pages of this post but will the KIT share the same lines as the Contour/SVT to the front and rear?
I reread your first post, and am I to understand this is a pre-made kit for another car that you are modifiying to fit? I think Audi right?
The reason why I bring this is up is because I got a chance to sit next to my car while it was on the Dyno for TWO hours and while staring at her I really feel the new KIT will need to share these same characteristics (the lines). It don't want to interupt the fine lines of the Contour
I hope the option is the latter of the two (that being with lines to bring consistancy). Thanks Terry.
Gotta take off to work now!
all i can say is that the kit will flow well with the lines of the Contour. im getting this done for the people who want something a little more aggressive than the svt kit but still clean in it's design.
any idea if a front will be made for pre98s? if you make one say, around april-june of next year, i'd definetly be in on it.
i was wondering about the mounting ? i have a SE and will i have to drill a sh!t load of holes to mouth this body kit ?
i believe the back will just replace the current bumper,, side skirts shouldn't be too hard, probably just a few holes, maybe clips or something.
well thats cool , i already have the side skirts on mine "sport model is why" so these news once will pop in the same ,.... i guess the process is to put the car up on jackstands and remove the rear and front bumpers and then dry fit the new ones?
Hey someone get Terry to pm me or e-mail me...We are ready to start on the car as soon as Terry can get in contact with me. My new shop number is 1-530-533-3459.
Hey Crofty so are we still shooting for the end of Oct. on this group buy.. Will that date be for the hole group buy or for the initial ten and then the rest later... Just getting very impatient here.. I cant wait
i really don't minding waiting some more... I got build some money up for it and then money to paint it.
i'll be taking my winter beater in delivery this month so i'm ready for it
im all set too , but no need for a winter beater here in Sunny Florida
bah damn you!!!
i'll probably be blessed with a blizzard or two so may you get a tropical depression
Guys you can start sending your deposits for the kits to either Terry or Kaotic Kustomz, pm me for the address and contact info. I need someone to get a hold of Terry ASAP to get the car here with the parts and get started. I want to start this next monday. It may not be done by the end of oct due to the moving but it will be shortly after the original deadline. Also Terry is to give me a list of names on the bulk buy, if your name does not appear on the list then you will be charged the full price. So get on the ball and get a hold of Terry to set up the bb.
whats up chris? reach me at
groundefx@hotmail.com to talk further, we're ready to roll.
i thought everyone already sent their deposits? Are more kits being made? By the way, make me a front bumper to match the kit next year..
again, anyone interested in this kit and that wants to sell their rear svt bumper please drop me a PM. i am in need of one. thank you. it is great to see this kit getting done. great job hella keep up the good work. peace.
I don't mean to be an ***hole and hijack this thread, but why are those headlights not compatible with our cars? They look identical to ours! Anyone out there know?
Milan there's been 35,000 posts about this in the aesthetics section. Our headlights are not in fact the same as the Mondeo and they require much modification to get them to fit. If you'd like, you could hold off for a month and wait until we're ready to get a group buy going on the Projector Headlights which will look better than those. Now, if anyone has questions about those headlights or that booty Mondeo, please take them to the Aesthetics forum as I'm seriously on the verge of pulling my hair out about people asking about that ugly ass car... damn
I dont get it either..
People keep asking about the Mondeo parts and why they dont fit, even during the old forums and still these people do not understand it is not possible.. Why cant people get this through their heads..
LET IT GO !!!
Oh yeah Hella any new news on the kit...????
steel blue mondy =
that mondeo looks pretty good, why does everyone call it ugly? can u wait more than a month between group buys,, there's some people (meing being one) that has to get money together after large purchases. though u'll have to make some for pre98 and some for post so i guess u can go ahead and do the post98.. are you going to be offering any of these kits and other aesthetics later with non group buy prices???
HAHA you really hate that car !@
whats up everyone? We are right on schedule and I'm trying to track someone down in California who'd be interested in letting their car serve as the donor car for the body kit (the original guy is no longer around). If I don't find someone in the next few days, I will ship my own car out there. the ball is in our court now as the shop is ready for us...
Sweet, that's good news since I just busted a side skirt.
okay everyone, nyceboi creations has agreed to go ahead and allow his SVT to be the donor car so u can give him a nice round of applause for stepping up and helping make this happen. We have to call Chris at the shop tomorrow to schedule everything and I'm hoping we can get the car to the shop by the end of this week. I'll post some more details tomorrow.
hip hip hooray!!!
YAAAY NICEBOI!!!!!
i'll drink to that!
/whore off
I..I...I don't know what to say...
I would first like to thank the Contour Gods for making this happen. I would like to thank ... *reads notes* my parents for gettin' busy that night and... i know i'm nervous... Britney Spears and Jessica Alba for being so beautiful, oh Terry can't forget you man..you the MAN... I know i'm forgeting some people... oh and all you wonderful CEGers that make loggin on the Internet all the more worthwhile, I'm doing this for you! I'm doing this for all Contour-kind! *cries off stage*
Wow...And I thought Captain Kirk over acted...
Thats some great news,just made my day.
Yup, i'm pimpin' my SVT to the bodyshop this weekend
Hasn't even been a year yet... she's growing up so fast
that's my lil girl *Dr. Evil sytle cry*
So what are we going to call the kit?
I motion for - "the 27"
Well... maybe not, but I was thinking it should have a name rather than the Contour Body Kit.
i agree
how about dead seksie
or hellasexy!
i vote for naming it in some way after hella
aye! hellasexy
Just got of the phone with both Terry and Chris (he's doing the body work over here) All set to go, I'm dropping the car off on Monday
i'm so happy!
Now I need someone to help me build my 3L for my '96 ATX so I don't miss the speed.
Hey Terry,
In the future if you need a pre-98 @ the shop you can always call on me (96 LX) if nobody else is able. Of course I can't have both cars there at the same time
hellasexy would sound too funny, but hella should be included; hella27 hellatour;hellachopper; hellaone; hellaheaven; hellasweetkit; hellaa4; hellasmellawella just some suggestions.
just saw some headlight called hella stage 2,, something like that would be cool, or something like the hella comando or hella something,, u know how bodykits are named hella predator,etc.
10-11-02 Update
Yes, so now we're really rollin everyone. As previously stated, Nirish is going to be dropping his car off on Monday and I just had the donor kit components sent to the shop. Chris at the shop has gone out of his way to make this group buy and the Contour his main priority and we're lucky to be working with such a class act.
Some of you may be receiving an e-mail from me just to confirm your correct shipping address. If you'd like to be ahead of the ball, feel free to e-mail me your address just so I have it in front of me as I update the Group Buy database. I may also be starting a newsletter of sorts sent directly to your e-mail to keep you guys updated even if you don't visit the site. As always, you can reach me at groundefx@hotmail.com. Thanks.
Terry
me and speed demon and u have to figure out shipping for us... seems cheapest would be to ship to nebraska(speed demon) and then him send rest to me.
Hey Hella just checking in. If you remeber I am going in on a kit with KnuKonceptz.. I am getting the front and he is getting the rest.. Email me at
sijoker789@msn.com with any details.. When are we looking at needing the rest of the money for the kit.... Keep us informed some work in progress pics would be awesome...As for the name I vote for HellaA4...
Hey guys. I didn't feel like traversing through 19 pages of thread, so if you don't mind me asking, how much is this kit? And is there anyone selling there BLACK SVT grounds effects kit? If so, send me a shout, I will take it off your hands.
mieskola@elvis.rowan.eduI am in Southern new Jersey

hella27
hella27 sounds too much like a model of some mass produced thing, hella-a4 sounds like a specific model and named after car the kit was originally for, not just car it's going on,, anybody know what the original kit was called?
Hey hella, i am in the group buy with slick 95 gl.
I am not sure how we are going to deal with shipping.
But the address that the bumper will be sent to is
702 w casino rd apt e104
everett, wa 98204
When are you going to collect the rest of the money?
She's goin' in the shop tomorrow...
Somebody want to lend me their SVT so I don't get SVT-sick.
I have a feeling my '96 can't fill the void (though it's been more reliable
with the only major problem being the waterpump)

HellaRS would be a little more accurate, since it's the RS kit.
oh i like that
HellaRS
neato!
i asked earlier what the real name of the kit was.... hellaRS is what it should be called.
HellaRS
10-16-02 Update
As Nirish mentioned above, his car was delivered to the shop so we're all ready to get started. The donor kit is due to arrive tomorrow or Friday so things are all set on our end. I will be sending Chris the deposits early next week and then the rest of the payment will be due in 5-6 weeks after the kit has been custom molded to Nirish's car with pictures for everyone to see.
We are in the creative stages of working on a new custom grille and projector headlights so lookout for more information on those in the upcoming weeks. I've received address confirmations from a few of you so if you have not sent me the address you want this kit shipped to, make sure you get in touch with me so I can keep the database up to date and organized. I can be reached at groundefx@hotmail.com with any questions. Thanks.
Terry
another needed to be made=pre98 front bumper, matching this kit.
Now i'm in the mix. ADD ME UP TO THE LIST!
OH WOW
this is looking better and better , i can just image , body kit, and projector headlights ...crusing the nice Florida Beach ......!! i cant wait
So whats the latest...Just gettin' a little excited here... How about some pics of the kit when it arrives and some work in progress pics would be great.... I cant wait....
you might want to read a few pages back to get the laters info .......
thats what i did .....now i know whats going on !
i just posted an update yesterday. scroll up
How much do you guys think it would be to paint the kit and the whole car good!
Quick delete the post before Terry sees that mondeo!! No, you can't get that setup, all the kits are the same...
uh oh
did i miss out on this GB?
would someone let me know if I could still get down on this?
OH NO ..........SH!T wait til he see's that Mondeo OMG hes going to throw up ...LOL im waiting for the reponce !!
Whew, I'm glad it wasnt me this time
I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRYI'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRYI'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRYI'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRYI'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY
That Mondeo pic has been floating around on here since the old site and original GB. Don't worry, we've all seen it, I do every day 'cause it's my back ground!
IIRC, that was the inspiration to form a GB to force a company to make a kit for us; everyone was PO'ed that it wouldn't work, soooo, over a year later, here we are!
terry,
forgive me if i missed anything cause i just read all 22 pages and my head is fried, can i still get in on this group buy? if not can i get the kit for a higher price? if so when do i need the money by? sorry if this was allready said and i just missed it but just seeing that mondeo 45 times makes your mind go numb

No status report yet guys, I've been too busy with school to check up on my baby
blasphemy!!!
WHAT???!!! You mean to tell me that school takes presidence over your car?! What is this world coming to...
Yeah, I have to agree, the car is way more important than school!

maybe that's why my grades are dropping.
Okay okay, one of my friends is on leave from the Navy next week -- he wants to check out my car so i'll take pics for y'all. I'm GOING TO TRY!
Hey Terry, check up on my baby too! I miss the lil' bugger. Not having her has totally tamed my driving style, now I only speed in NFS Hot Pursuit 2... my 96 cannot fill the void in my heart
maybe if I paint it yellow (I have a yellow car fetish right now, either the SVT or the 96 goes yellow. Not to worry guys, I go through phases it probably won't happen)
Would they have been able to make any progress in such a short time? I'm anxiously awaiting pics, though...
well the kit just got there last week so it may be a few weeks before you see anything substantial. I am sending Chris all the deposits and the group buy database on Monday so everythings going really well at this point. Chris will also have pictures for us as things move forward.
Cool, 'cuz it's too far to drive just to go look at her
yelllllowwww, yipppy, paint the grill of the 96 yellow so i won't keeping feeling so alone.
I have some bad news guys... Some unexpected problems have been comming up with my car, that and a few other family issues will be preventing me from being able to go through with the GB.
I hate to be one of those guys that drops out at the last minute, but there isn't much I can do. I E-mailed Terry about it, so hopefully he can refund my deposit? If there is anyone who wanted to get in on this group buy, but was too late, I'm sure you could take my spot. Once again, sorry guys!
Sean, check your e-mail. Just sent your deposit back.
**ATTENTION EVERYONE** - we have 1 open space left in this Group Buy so if you want to get a kit at the Group Buy Price, this is your last chance! E-Mail me at groundefx@hotmail.com, a deposit of $150 will hold your spot!
my spot is still held right terry? I'm really excited to get this kit. I already made arrangments to get my whole car repainted!
hey terry, any idea if a front for pre98s will ever be offered? if not, will this kit be made after group buy is over but higher price? my car is gonna look crappy w/o a matching front.
Just bumpin' this topic up... Let us know if anything comes up Hella...
iiiiii'm gettin antseyyyyyyyyy
oh calm down matt!!!!!
HEY, AT LEAST YOU
HAVE YOUR CONTOUR!
Does it come painted? Cuz if it does im very interested
no it doesn't come painted, and i should have all the money i need to pay for my part by sunday
I want in can someone contact me as soon as possible.
So hows the progress on this car. I'm not in a great hurry now since i lost my license for 30 days because of 10 points. Also cuz my warrenty is allowing elder ford to put in a new trans and fix of all the leaks. Just checking on the progress because i haven't been on in a while to look at the gb. Oh ya and just to let you know i put a pic of my car on my info at the bottom so just let me know if it takes to long for you dial up guys to load, then i'll take it off.
nice car!

sorry, no soup for you!!!!
11-7-02 UpdateThe group buy is now closed with over 30 people who've paid deposits. I may have someone who has to back out so I will contact the people who still want in if that happens.
Everyone, I'd like to thank you for your patience so far as we get closer and closer to wrapping this up. We're still a few weeks away from any substantial news or pictures but stay tuned for more info in the next week or so. I know we're all getting excited myself included but hold tight, it won't be much longer now

umm since the subject is 98+ its 98+. the price IS 650 dollars. and there is pictures back in the posts but they are not exact yet. The real pics are gonna be a couple weeks. Oh ya and there is already 30 people buying it and that is what hellahydro needed. If you still want to get it, look in the posts before this and email him. So, ya!
it's also for pre98s,, well atleast the sides and rear,, i'm keeping my back bumper incase the new one gets damaged... paint your car sunburst orange, i love it.
However, the GB is closed. If someone backs out you can take a spot.
kremits got his panties in a bunch waitin for this thing
me too
just ordered my new wheels so i've initiated the crazyness of being broke for 5 months while i go on a mod-spree
my bad, you replied to me, and right after my post, and after the newbie's question was answered. things get confusing on the internet.
SOOO.. HOW ARE U HOLDING UP HELLA, I KNOW THIS MIGHT BE KINDOF STRESSFUL, if you are just remember the reward for staying sane through all this!

HIM? What about me?!?!! I've been having dreams about my SVT now... lol j/k. But I do miss her very much
it's been 4 weeks (28 days) this day!
I meant to say that to you also, and i do kindof know how you feel, my car has been in the shop for 2 weeks, and at least you don't have to think that someone could be driving your car around without knowing it when they are done "FIXING IT"!
I'VE HEARD STORIES
try 5 months and another year before that and you might see how i feel. in the two years i've owned my car, i've driven it about 7-8 months of that time. as far as this GB, things are going well so i can't complain. in a few weeks, it will be time for me to step back and let the body shop take over from there. my work here is just about done!
OK OK I"M SORRY I DON'T KNOW WHAT ITS LIKE
So where DO you live hella, You live im Michigan right? if you do where? cuz maybe I could just pick up the kit, or maybe i could help with the process, I got a 300 dollar digital camera, I could maybe take the pictures
I'm just trying to get some of the pressure off of terry and nyceboi! just let me know, If you need help terry just pm me and i'll give you my cell or something.
oh i thought you both were in michigan sorry
Is there any 98+ Contour owner who is buying this body kit willing and still has the CSVT rear bumper, and both side moldings. I am interested in buying them. If you do have the parts email me at
spence@gmpexpress.net.
Hey nyceboi, I just got my car back yesterday. do you want me to bring it over to cali so you can drive it around for a little bit?
I know I know!
But anyways, did anybody ever try to put the kit on there car on photoshop to see what it would look like? if they did, how bout posting that BIA:) We need this post to be alive. I mean comeone this is probably the best groupbuy on this site. I mean a new aspect for tours everywhere....LETS ALL STAND UP AND SHOW OUR PRIDE FOR YOUR LOVED CONTOURS, WE WILL SHINE, OH YES, WE WILL SHINE TO LIVE ANOTHER DAY IN THE COMPETITION AGAINST RICE EVERYWHERE! WE WILL NO LONGER LOOK THE SAME ACROSS THE 50 STATES, SOME OF US, WILL BE DIFFERENT, WILL BE DARING, AND WE ALL SHOULD THANK TERRY FOR THE WWOONNDDEERRFFUULL JOB HE DID WITH THIS GB............
THANK YOU TERRY!
Thanks everyone for your support. CEG is really on the ball now!
I was planning on selling by SVT buying a '95 TwinTurbo Supra but I truly love my SVT and the Contour in general. The aftermarkets picking up due to the head strong individuals we have. I'm glad you guys didn't abandon the car either.
Plus, I'm sure i'll turn the heads of everyone on the road with this new breed of aftermarket. It's not like the SVT didn't already...
Thanks again!
just a side question. i'm just curious so i'll ask. who prefers the tauras rage front end (the red contour shown). i think the lines are far better than the rs4 front end. our cars aren't boxy enough to pull it off. those mondeos look nice but not great. the red photoshopped contour's front end looks natural (meaning unbodykit). no one would know it was a body kit. just curious if anyone else agrees.
hella, congrats on gettting this going and sticking with it.
i don't feel like looking back at every page for it, but i don't like the rage kit on the taurus, so i doubt i would like it on a contour.
nyceboi, paid ur baby a visit lately? i'm just freakin dyin here!
In reply to:
i don't feel like looking back at every page for it, but i don't like the rage kit on the taurus, so i doubt i would like it on a contour.
thats cuz the taurus sux. it actually follows the style of the rs4 but imo is different enough where is looks better and more natural.
Hey guys, I have a question to ask you. I know this should be in another forum but i figured that i should put in in here to keep this alive... When i go and start my car in the morning its goes fine for about 10 seconds, then it makin this big a$$ like,,, ummm, not humming knows, its a lot more high pitched, its like a really high pic verson of when you whistle and humm at the same time. When i rev it up, its fine, its only does it at around a 700 rpm idle. Whats goin on? :
you should really ask that somewhere else, in fact, how bout going and asking that in a different forum. and to anybody that buys this kit and ever sells the kit or your car in the future (or just sells the front bumper) let me know, because if somebody other than micah doesn't make a front bumper for pre98s, i want to do a custom job (and using the front from matching kit would make sense).
ok so im not even in this GB, but I am curious as to how the progress is coming? I saw inital pictures of what it will look like, and am excited to see the actual finished product, can anyone tell me where the progress is at this stage?
the process is very nervous, anticipating, nail biting,,, car is being fitted, mold being made,etc.
Monday will mark the 5th week without my SVT
Hopefully I can have my baby back before Thanksgiving (Chris estimated 6 weeks at best up to 2 months)... but then again, she's gonna be sitting in the garage for winter in her new clothes with some new 18's, and Milans HIDs awaiting the glorious 3L overhall come January or if I go stupid happy and Vortec comes out with a returnless I might go supercharged but I just want to be able to see her again.
ONE BADDASS SVT
anyone still looking for someone to buy a rear bumper?

Im lookin for side skirts and a rear bumper...pm if selling
I am looking for svt skirts and a rear bumper...would take this new hellahydro is someone is only getting the front bumper (doubt it though)
ya, if anyone wants to sell their svt rear and sideskirts, id gladly buy them
Check the classifieds come December for mine.
Sorry to say but do to big transmission problems I had to retire the tour this weekend.
I will no longer be participating in this group buy.. For everyones information I was getting the front bumper and KNUKONCEPTZ was getting the rest... Sorry again
11-18-02 UpdateWhat's up everyone? Pictures should be up in about a week and a half (give or take a few days) so be on the lookout for those. It won't be long now before payments will be requested so make sure you have money set aside for this outside of your Christmas money! I do not want to be Mr. Bill Collector this holiday season when I should be rollin around in my SVT with it's NEW custom body kit, wearing a santa hat and drinking hot cocoa while doing e-brake slides throughout the city. please do not screw me people!!! Be ready to pay!!! There have been other RECENT group buys on this site that have left the person who started it screwed out of $1000's of dollars and I'm dead serious. I've put in too much work to get raped like that!
Ok, now that my personal demons have been exorcised I have some good news for the Pre-98 guys too. As soon as the 98+ kits have all been shipped, we will be doing this same body kit for the Pre-98's as well. Price will be $650 just like this one and we only need 8 guys to get it off the ground. Check the new Pre-98 thread for news and updates on that!
So we're rollin people, just a little more patience and I promise once this kit is installed on your car you will have a smile surgically plastered on your face for 2003 and years to come!!

Hella, I will be taking care of the whole kit now that Xtreme retired hos tour. I should have waited for the complete pre 98 kit, but since I have the pre-98SVT bumper already sitting next to me, I will just stay with things as planned. Let us know when $$ is needed, I have it waiting for ya.
don't let me know when you need money, not yet atleast, i just bought a superchip
need a couple more weeks to replenish funds
kremit you mod whore

the superchip will be my first real mod (though i won't use it for a while, can't afford 93 octane right now
), i'm ready for the kit (don't forget to PM me about shipping sometime),, and now getting front as well, life is good.
well on shipping heres what i'm thinkin, if its a flat rate anywhere then we send it to you since your getting most of the kit, then you send me the bumper (lighter) if its staggered send to me first and then i'll send your stuff off to you....... all depends
ok everyone, here are some in-progress pictures of the front bumper. As you can see, Chris is molding the bottom part of the RS4 bumper into the SVT bumper to ensure that this kit follows the lines of the Contour. He was able to make the sidevents work too so the finished product will look extremely smooth and clean like it came from the factory. Don't worry about how choppy it is now, it is guaranteed to come out Extra Smooth!
With an Eibach drop and stock tires, the front end will be well over 5 inches from the ground in the front and just a tad lower on the sides of the front end. As I said originally it will be higher than the mirko spoiler and a little bit lower than the SVT front. Everyone with a drop has been kept in mind! We can raise it up some if you guys want but i think it's totally unnecessary and it will take away from the overall look.
Below you will also find a WRX style hood scoop that Chris is offering to us. It will be a full fiberglass hood replacement with hoodpins and that scoop for $350. Carbon Fiber will also be offered too. We need 10 guys to get that group buy off the ground and the turnaround time will be QUICK!
So this front bumper will be strikingly similiar to this image that Honkeytonk photoshopped for us except we will have the original vents from the RS4 bumper! Chris does incredible work and we're lucky as hell for him to be doing this for us.
Man I can't wait.

sounds good to me,,, looks like the kit will look real nice. i hope the hood is available for pre98s and made next year, so i can afford it, i've decided on doing mainly aesthetics mods for now as performance will be very costly (except funny gas). the front looks like it would look good with z3 style fenders, too bad i couldn't have gotten in on that group buy as well.
Kremit we can work out a group buy for pre-98 hoods too, we just need 10 guys!
Terry,
That looks freakin awesome.
Can't wait for this thing to finally be done.
Nice work.

I'm in. Just wait til after Christmas to get it going and I'm in for sure.
Lookin' good!! Starting to regret not hopping on...
Still want side skirts, though.
MY BABYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'M SORRY I EVER LEFT YOU! YOU'LL BE HOME SOON!
Daaaaaaamn!!!
wow look at that!!!
i hope the pre 98 kit is gonna look the same!
Sorry for asking a really ignorant question, but ive been reading the posts and don't recall any mention of whether or not the company will continue to produce the kit outside of the group buy...it seems easy as they mold will already be made. Anyways please help me out.
no soup for you!
Not sure
Yes, I'm working on it right now.
Do you guys want the hood? It will be a functional air system! let me know...
So the scoop will be over the intake and not in the middle?

Heh, withdrawl.
I may be interested in that hood if the scoop is functional. I'd be interested to see it on a tour though so I can see how it'll look.
Hella, I am glad to see this thing is still going!!
I havent been here on the CEG for a loooong time, almost since the changeover. But i have to get my tour back from my sister before i can start some more investing in mods for her, but if this is available after the GB, then let me know..
good job!
cool. I'd like to keep everything in this thread for the sake of organization. so everyone just post here. When the kits are ready I will start a new thread.
I would also like to know if the scoop will be above the intake or in the middle, let us know
about the hood, i imagine as functional it will let heat out not air into the intake, as it will be for two different engines. Ram air hood would be nice though and would save me CAI cost.
too much stuff to buy at the same time for a part time worker, high school student,, i hope everything is available after the group buys, if not, just go ahead and make one extra of everything and save it for me.
But the filters re just abut in the same place for both engines. I agree there should be a scoop over the intake for induction.
are the side vents necessary? i personally think the vents look pretty ugly. i just think it takes away from the smooth lines along the side. does anyone else agree?

mmmmmmmmm.....low blow..... nyce
I HOPE THERES MORE AFTER THE GROUP BUY!IT WOULD BE CRAZY

Well, I dunno about all that but I would like it to remain as rare as it is. But then again... business is business and it's up to Chris or Terry

shhhhhhh... "someone already is"
i'm such a little stinker
check this!once the big players in the aftermarket see the
kit!!ching!ching!
money will make them jump on the
wagon.trust me!once the tour roll up at an audio show or
my favorite CARLISE P.A. IMPORT SHOW next year.many will
ask....where can I get that and how much?
I'll have mine for sale then. $12,000. Ohh yeah, the car comes with it!
I'm not sure if this question has been answered yet but I am still curious if this kit will be available after the group buy is over with. If it turns out to look as its been planned, then I really want one. I understand those 30 guys wanting theirs to be unique and all, but lets share the wealth. Some of us just can't afford to drop that much money on a dime. I hope we can get them after or else I'm gonna have to steal one off of someones 'Tour. j/k
Don't worry, HellaHydro and I are working on making the body kit available after the GB is over. Please be patient as it is in the preliminary stages.
i'm fine with making it available after group buy,, if i couldn't afford it now, i would be mad if i couldn't get it later, and there are some things being made now that i can't afford and i hope to get later.... the more body kitted 'tours, the better.
All i know is that i want the carbon fiber hood!
where do i get into that?
hey guys the kit will be available after the bb is over but it will not be at this much of a discount. As for the hood terry is working on getting me the stuff for the f50 scoop that you all liked. If not that then the wrx modified version and it can come in cf and will be functional. this will have a bb also, and after both are done, you can buy the kit and the hood and receive a discount but not as good as the bb price.
So, How much is the cf hood with the scoop if we are buying the bodykit in this gb? 250?
i think like $350.
the hood is fiberglass iirc
I know alot of people have prob already posted this on here but I am looking for an SVT rear bumper and the sideskirts. I already have the front I just need the rest(preferably in T-red). I live in PA so the closer the better thanks alot guys.
Jerry
Just PM me if you are looking to sell.
So when is the money due for this groupbuy? I want to be on this to but for financial reasons I might have to wait. The kit looks AWESOME!

money was due a few months ago, you'll have to buy it after the GB is over.
Originally posted by Kremithefrog:

Actually the downpayment was due a few months ago. The rest is due at completion of the kit. But as far as I know this group buy is closed. It will be available after the group buy is over, but not at this discounted price.
Watch this thread though, if someone backs out you have a chance to jump in, but not very likely.
Alright, thats cool, thanks for the quick response. I will watch this through, and what will the after groupbuy price be?
hows the kit comin?? any new updates??
Ya comeone Terry, what's the scoop. I heard there is something up with the rear bumper
that is one of the best parts. PLEASE UPDATE FOR US.
I CHANGED MY USERNAME, I'M JACOB DOWDY MY USERNAME USED TO BE JDMXD.
not sure where Terry is guys but it will be a couple more weeks till completion (2-3 weeks) This perfectly works out since I'll have the Milans projector HIDs and 18" ready for pictures!
I talked to Chris and they are still making progress, there was a fitment problem with the rear bumper but both Terry and Chris are taking care of it.
************************
7 weeks and 2 days
************************
I had a dream I got my car back and it ended up being a white Oldsmobile Intrigue with shaved door handles, a wing and converted to a 2door chop top... LOL funkiest ass dream I've ever had related to my car. Damn, had that dream last night and it seemed so real.
no bumper problem, there was a brief issue but that was resolved. kits will start shipping late December/early January and it will be on a first come first serve basis. This means that the faster you make your payment, the faster you will receive your kit. We will have finished pictures up in the next 2 weeks as Nirish mentioned and from there payments will be requested.
As I said before do not b*llshit on payments. You guys have had months to have this money put aside and I don't want to hear ONE EXCUSE about not having the money when the time comes. I will not be breathing down anyone's back for payments. You all know what you need to do. You asked for a body kit and I delivered. Now it's just about time for you guys to do your part.
Detailed installation instructions hand-written from Chris himself will come along with the kit so all you do it yourselfers can install this after you have it painted. Of course it's usually better for the professionals to do this type of thing. Chris will also have a notes section that will tell you or your body shop things to look out for when installing and a general price range to expect from body shops for installation.
Thanks for your patience so far
just a question: how reinforced is it? can extra reinforcement be added? (i will be installing it myself w/ help of some experienced friends), also, anybody know about how much a shop charges to paint front, sides, and rear? thanks.
Terry when you say, "it will be on a first come first serve basis. This means that the faster you make your payment, the faster you will receive your kit." Does this still keep the ten of us (me included) at the front of the list who made our down payments first?
well has there been a solid price on the kit for the people who put in deposits. I am in a group that is buying one kit and we need to figure out how to split the cost so we can send in our money but we need a set price.
I am so happy this is coming along.
Oh will there be a problem i f i wanted to pick up my portion of the kit form the shop in CA

Bro if you read, Terry made it very clear
"Full Payments!" The deposit is such a small portion of the bill I really hope you didn't think you or any of the initial depositiers would get preferential treatment cause of that. Again as Terry made it clear, the Body Kits will be provided in the order of Full Payment not Deposits...

Excuse me, I wish the old group buys were saved in the archives. Obviously you do not remember everything that happened before any of these 37 page's were started. My deposit was sent in on May 24,(before page 1 even started) To garantee that I would be one of the first ten to get the kit. I have been a part of this group buy since day one. And have also had all the money for this set aside since then. SO Terry will get it as soon as I read the post to send it, but I check the forums on a every other day basis. And just wanted to make sure I am not going to end up last on the list if I dont log on the exact day he posts for payments. So don't roll your eye's at me.
Can I send my payment now!!!!
I want my Kit!!!!!!!!!
If I'm the first person to send my payment can I just have nyceb0i's Tour when it's finished????????

Fair enough...Though realize If I or anyone decides to paypal terry the full change right now before he asks for it, thats a whole nother debate.
(rolling eyes again)
If you have the money set aside, why keep it there if you're worried about timing. Send Terry the full payment, that's pretty Commen Sense if you ask me, I'm sure it'll make Terries job a whole lot easier when it comes time to get money from everyone...
Umm, I think the guys that made the first deposit should already have first crack at getting their kit since they helped get the initial ball rolling. I am one of these people and had terry asked for full payment up front I could have sent it then. Arguing about how early you sent payment is retarded as Terry never asked for it.
The first ten should have the right to get the first ten kits, give them 7-10 days to send payment once it is required by Terry. IF they fail to do so they lose their place in line. That is the fair way to handle this.
i think it should go in order of who paid deposits. i like getting a little more time before i have to pay, that way i can make sure i won't be borrowing money (x-mas bonus coming soon).

I agree, but my response is coming after Terries reply. though I think you'll be knocking on wood to think that when the BodyKit is ready everyone will need to wait 10-days for the first 10 before the other how many people can pay up. I'm sure Terry has everyone's email address (i hope) and will probably advise you folks when the time comes. I already have the remaining money set aside already though I'm really not gonna press the issue for my sake...
Has anyone backed out on this GB? I'd be interested in getting in on it if someone backs out. Just let me know if it happens, I need the parts to fix my salvaged SVT when it arrives.
is it possable for me to get the front bumper made for a 97 mystique? If so you can count me in for sure
unfortunately stealth, the kit was only made for the 98 and up contours and the gb is closed unless someone backs out...Micah's bumper is a nice bumper however for your vehicle
wel thxz but that friggin sucsk man because i can make the full payment as of now if i wanted to...
but oh well
just wondering if anyone whos buying this kit want to sell there old svt skirts,and possibly rear bumper, had an accident so i need new ones
hey any new pics?? im sort of anxious. any new news??
How come nobody sent me any sympathy cards? "We're with yeah buddy" "Keep on truckin'" "Thank you" type cards?
I sacrifice for 9 weeks and this is what I get?
Hehe, just kidding guys!
MPMS moment. (MALE-Premenstrual-Syndrome, and no i'm not growing boobs so stop thinking that)
you're "sympathy card" will be attached to your car at the end of all this.
Ok We'll, I just found out that someone will charge me 100 dollars a piece to paint the kit. What do you guys think? And also, Is the time set to get these kits still the same. Also is the time to give up the full amount in yet?
if the job is good, then that's a good deal, especially if that includes the cost of paint.
Ok so I know i missed the grouup buy for the kit, but I reallllyyyy would like to get my hands on it. when the gb is over with I know the price will go up but I'm willing to pay it. so please notify all the late peoples.
thanks
is this still going on ? i havent seen any more pics
i guess i should wait until i get back from Europe to pay the full amount , im DYING tto the the kit on someones car fully painted
I might be visiting 2day to drop off my wheels.
AT 10 PM PACIFIC TIME - I WILL HAVE DETAILS ABOUT OUR KIT.
I WENT FOR A LIL VISIT TODAY....
1 AM Pacfic time... sorry I'm late on this guys. Went out tonight even though I didn't think I would. It's been raining and I planned on staying home and writing to you guys about my first impressions of the kit in it's finishing stages.
Chris is a really stand up guy. He showed me basically everything, right down to how they keep the screws together in little individual bags so everything is accounted for.
The rain stopped on the 70 mile trek to Kaotic Innovations making the communte a little easier. A block a way I spotted my car sitting in their lot; the biggest grin I've had in a long time was plastered to my face. As we parked I saw my baby naked sitting in the rain. Chris was at the enterance to great us.
The purpose of todays visit was to drop off my 18" wheels and tires. We went out back just to look at the car and Chris took me on a walk around and then told us to wait while he grabbed the finished front bumper. He attatched the bumper and with a smile and my hands over my crotch to hold in the joy I said "oh my god" I laid a grin that would be near sin.
Seriously guys, the kit is drop dead beautiful. There were no headlights or grill since they sat in the trunk. Chris quickly grabbed them to give the added effect. My friend and I couldn't speak, just smile and smile more. We stood far and we stood near and from every angle at any distance it looked good. Damn good! The kit flows so perfectly with the Contour and mimicks the curves better than anyone could have anticipated. The kit sits low to the ground, not as low as the Mikro but low with my BAT suspension on the E1's.
Next we went into the shop itself to check out the rear bumper. I opted for him not to put it on the car simply because it was so damn cold. On the rear bumper: I think it looks better than any of us could imagine. I went in thinking it would look one way and kind of boxy like the RS4 kit. Kiddies, Chris doesn't play... the kit wraps around better than rubber on a stick. The outlets allow my Brullen 3.5" tips to have about an inch top and bottom and perfectly centered.
On thing Chris is dealing with at the moment is working on how the hangers are going to work for the dual exhaust. Ford built the bumpers so the hangers are integrated to the bumper and not the body. Chris is having to figure out how this is going to be accomplished so far he's taking the SVT hangers and working with them. From what I saw it looks like he might get it right. Chris has been working with Terry Haines on getting this done right. Don't worry children it will all be figured out soon.
On the quality of the fiberglass. Really good, very flexable. He gave me a fiberglass hood he made and told me to bend it. That bitch would bend and keep it's shape. You know how I said Chris is a stand up guy? Well he put the hood on the ground and walked on it. Not did he only walk on it he gave a little hop and stood there and talked to us for a while. I think the point was proven when he lifted the hood to show us no cracks or deformations. Don't try this @ home! But yeah, very impressive.... I don't think anybody would be complaning about the quality of the fiberglass.
On the side skirts: The jack stand points are being eliminated and the skirts will be molded more to the body. The skirts will flow from the end of the front bumper to the end of the rear making for a very nicely flowing kit all around. The original proposed side skirts have been ditched for these custom made ones. The car will have to be lifted on the front and back to put these suckers on.
Hoods Hoods Hoods! Yes there is going to be a hood made. This I didn't get to see a Contour specific application but he threw around some ideas including the WRX style which he did a quick mock up on the car sitting outside. Very aggressive and sweet.
All in all this visit made my rainy day weekend. The car is gonna look great! It's going to be about a month late due to some complications and the addition of a hood (not part of the kit). I will be posting installation instructions tomorrow to show you how well Chris has thought out everything for the professional and do-it-yourselfer. Of course he suggests only a professional install the kit. Part of this install kit comes with sealer, double stick tape and other various items to help you out. The kit will also come with good quality black wire mesh (not the cheap chicken wire sh!t).
Feel free to ask me any questions about my experiences on this forum. Sorry but I couldn't take pictures and Chris' was recently stolen. I went in thinking that Chris would have his camera on hand.
I sincerly don't think anybody can make a kit that's gonna look this good. The kit will go into production about 6 months after the bulk buy is over at a higher price. So you guys who miss out on it now will have an opportunity come spring time or summer.
Man thats great. Thanks for the well written description also. I can't wait!!!
DAMN !! sounds GREAT !! Only if we had a little picture
, but im sure we can wait just a little more
sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet, my question is, will the sides work with the pre98 front?, i've ordered 98+ sides and rear and will get a pre98 front, so i need them to be able to work together.
I'll take my digital camera next time and take some video for you guys. I'm out of school and not working much until end of January when school starts again. I'll visit before the New Year so we can have pics if Chris hasn't replaced his camera by then.
You should have taken that damn camera yesterday!!!
You just wanted to tease us you whore!!!!!!!!!
I prefer the term "proper whore" thank you.

please, i liked to know soon. thanks.
i think you'd have to be a fool to make a whole other bumper and side skirt set when they're the same thing and countless people have swapped the OEM parts across the generation gap with no problems, i'm pretty sure the dude will just make a pre-98 front end and more rear bumpers and side skirts
gee, i hope so, but he sounds like he's going all out, and the connecting from front to rear bumper, just scare me for a second. who else here will be installing the kit themselves??? i'll have help (somewhat experienced), i just wanna get it right.
So is this kit going to be closer to the ground then the Stock Svt kit ? comparing if you had "2" SVT'S side by side with the same tires / rims will this kit make the car look
LOWER or will it be the same as the SVT .....?
Im hoping you going to tell me YES .........!!!
it's already been posted, this kit will be lower than the stock svt kit, but higher than svt with mirko splitter.
Man, when you guys going to get pics?
more importantly, when are we gonna get KITS!
I'll be installing mine myself. Just want to see pics of the rear bumper. I might go with the SVT rear bumper instead of this one. I'll wait to see how it looks on someone else car first though.
LOL i feel ya man , i cant wait for mine either , but just give them time bro , there just trying to make it
PERFECT for us Contour guys , im wishing i only had pic's too as well !! but sometimes i see them in my dreams !!
Only if i could rememeber my dreams huh ...

Sweet.
then you will want down payments for the pre 98s right?
dude this best be a countdown to pics.
LOL
yeah this had better be a countdown to the pics.
I posted this also in the pre 98 group buy in case your wondering, but I wanted to ask you guys too.
Is there anyone in here that is getting the body kit that has a set of side skirts that they would want to sell? Not the skirts from the kit but the factory ones. I tried to buy some about a year ago but my family said no. Now they have no reason to say no.
Anyhow, I was wondering incase anyone wants to sell theirs as they replace it with the body kit set, or perhaps someone is buying your svt set to replace their SE set.
I was hoping for white to match my car, but I can just get them painted.
Thanks
-Rob
HELL i'll sell you my side skirts, there silver but in GOOD condition.......!! i cant post a pic too if ya want ,
Here's mine, sorry about the posing but its the best side pic i got
web page
How much do you guys think it would cost just to get the side skirts painted white?

I hope your not saying $

I will post pictures of the sideskirts and rear fascia as soon as they're completed (almost there). hopefully these can hold you over for just a short while longer. sorry for the delay, I am personally making sure that this kit is absolutely stunning in all aspects. Kaotic, Nirish and myself are making no compromises so bare with us as we wrap this up! Mad props to Chris at Kaotic and Nirish for being incredibly professional, hard working and just overall good people to work with.
(this is one style of hood we may be offering if the interest is there, sorry if it throws u off)
That looks sweet.
Hope the pre98s look as good.
is the bumper including fog lights.

no, however the kit was designed so that it would be fairly easy to mount and install whatever style foggies you feel looks best. personally i'll be running Milan's HID headlights so I won't be too concerned about foglights with those.
i knew my boy would come through!!!
this kit is goin to be "ridiculous", so prepare yourselfs!
the front shot looks badass. i cant wait to see the rest. thanks for the pic.
OMG, i cant wait for the pre-98
thanks Hella, and everyone else who contributed to this
SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT ......................WHERE DO THE FOG LIGHTS GO ??????????????????

Elementary Watson...
Im about to go outside and shoot myself for being so stupid and not getting in on this kit! God at nationals their are going to be some very fine looking tours.
LOL dont shoot yourself man , maybe i'll sell you my front ? Im thinking about going to a SVT front now but im not too sure yet . I like this one but the fog light feature completely changed my mind, so keep updated.

Hey guys I hope the kit is to your liking... I let nirish get some actual spy shot photos of some of the work that I took upon myself to do for you guys. There should be an addition to the size of your fenders
, and much more. If you want photo evidence then ask Terry to release them, and if he will then tell me what you think. If you have any gripes about the kit then voice them and Terry, Nirish, and Myself will try to fix them.
Also there are photos of the rear. It is almost done also. We are still working on a concept for the sides. I think we got it niped in the bud.
Crofty
Terry, word on the street is you have photos of the kits and are holding out! Thats just wrong man. If this kinda activity continues Allmon and I might be making a visit to your neighborhood!
j/k If you do have them like Crofty says, post them for crying out loud. We're dying here!
Why aren't the pics showing up on my computer???
oh man. u pulled the pic?
dont worry it's not ur/my computer..im not sure if they were removed or not, but i tried it at work and at home...so it's not u meng.
IF ANYONE MISSED THIS GROUP BUY .........KEEP THERE EYES OPEN , I might decide to sell this kit after all ,
just keep heads up OK , depending on the rear i will let you know , i wasnt real sparked up at all on the front , but maybe the rear will change things , but its like the front at all , i will be getting rid of it for sure and going to a SVT kit or maybe nothing at all ,
Citation how about I just refund your deposit, I have dozens of guys who would love to take your spot. let me know. Sorry about the pictures being down everyone, they will be back up shortly.
I seriously hope nobody has to deal directly with citation10, he's a thief.

I'm sure hes gonna buy and sell for a profit. That is why he seems "somewhat" interested. To make it seem not so obvious.

Might be the angle of the shot -
I'm going back Friday to take off the door dings (you know to help progress). The pics you see are from a DV cam, i'm going to use an actual digital camera for higher resolution pix and i'll use a tripod to get some hot shots.
Trust me the kit looks great, I'll bring this up on our next meeting. We are doing all we can to make the perfect kit.

nah, it's just the way the picture was taken. we have video footage we're going to drop soon so everyone can see just how nice and neat everything lines up.
Guy's were currently making some revisions to the back bumper and I will be sending them to Chris today. Once we get those squared away more pictures will be up. Sideskirts are due to be complete by next week. sorry for the delay and thanks for your patience.
No problem I'm sure once its all done it will be worth the wait.
Well my question was worded wrong....anyway...makes me wish I had a job and some income.....
The suspense is killing me...I thought we were gonna get pictures of this bad boy this week? at least of the entire thing I thought, not just the front.
You see..what happened was I got my damn wisdom teeth pulled out and havn't been back to take new pix.... and the pain is killing me! For whatever reason it's taking me longer than normal to heal and the damn vicidins not workin'..oh the humanity.. feel my pain brother! Pix and a VIDEO! will be up soon guys..just please hang in there!

Please, this is nerve racking! I need a video, pic, sound clip, BODY KIT, ANYTHING!........
P.S. I WAS JOKING ABOUT THE SOUND CLIP
Okay..i'll upload the sound clip soon.

Originally posted by nyceboi:

Oh you're really going to burn now.
ok, so like, wheres deeze pics? and when do i get mah bumper? where do i send da coin?
I think we should all get to drive Nyceboi's SVT around for one week apiece before he even gets to see the car!
LOL, you actually want to drive my car? You'd feel like sh!t if something happened to it.
I have two friends that I totally trust with my SVT and have taken possesion of it for a couple hours if I wasn't able to pick it up from the dealership and now they will NOT even touch it anymore with all the work that's been put into it.
You may drive the car, but as soon as I get it back the SVT engine is getting replaced with a 3L conversion
- yeah, gotta look fast and be fast - it's a high 14, low 15 second car right now - must go faster.
Thats fine, I can wait till after the new motors put in. Ummmm do I get my own set of keys or are we sharing?
(As you can tell I'm really bad on taking hints aren't I?)
Any progress on....well anything?
when do we get to see the back??? (im in on the pre98 kit)
also, is it gonna look messed up with my pre98 bumper from micah, how much lower than SVT is it?
When you upgrade it to a 3.0L are you going to sell your UIM and LIM? If so I would would interested in buying them.
pics pics pics ... I want pics!!!
LOL .....saY that 1 more time .....i didnt hear ya
Will this kit be out by atleast march? Because I need the pre-98 kit installed on my car before the 20th of March...
LOL im going a little crazy waiting for this !! , Im sitting in a small house on the east side of Bulgaria wondering about my car ,.OH i miss it , ..WOULD be nice if this was done by the time i get home ..But time makes things PERFECT right ? Well if i make it back to USA in 1 piece then i will at least have my car ,,,,most around here have a donkey and a trailer /// !!
let me give chris a call and see how everything is going. i'll have some news and hopefully pictures by wednesday. im as anxious as you guys to roll this out, just have a few things to take care of and it will be a done deal. thanks for your patience or whatever little u have left.
all I can say is... ATLEAST YOU ALL ARE DRIVING YOUR CAR!

good luck...they haven't even finished the prototype car yet (nyceboi's)
eventhough they wont have to fabricate the sideskirts and rear bumper to fit the pre98's they haven't even finished any of the 98+ kits yet...im thinking it should go faster than this first batch is going but i dont know about march 20...i am dying to see the full kit fitted though, especially since it'll look better on the older models
March 20th is 2 months... i guess it's hard to predict at this time...but 2 months seems reasonable, for just the front bumper, post 98 is nearly complete...
im going back to Miami in march...i wont dare pull up with a stock contour as my friends watch...lol...i personally dont like the pre-98's stock...just not me...well stock except for my 18"s...ACTUALLY...it's probably because i have blackies on..(no hubcaps..) that's prolly why it just really looks ghey at the moment..
Is anyone selling there spot? If so, email me at
Moosehead89@yahoo.com thanks
Moose
LOL, wasnt it supposed to be done in October of last year ?
must be a B##CH making this kit for the car, [censored] he much have 400 hours in it by now huh ? ..... Well all we can do is wait .

Hey man, I like to razz ya', but I do feel your pain. Everytime I take my car to Ford for any little problem, they always want to keep it overnight. Imagine months without my car, I think I'd be in tears by now.
But on the other hand, did you get those sound clips yet?

The car was dropped off Oct. 14 and started two weeks after. Initial estimates were about two months (excluding one week for Thanksgiving and one week for xmas/nyrs holidays). There were some changes early on last year that delayed production plus the fact that the supplier of the body kit we used was taking way to long to ship the bumper.
Also realize that a hood is being done too. This will be separate and requires more time. The initial estimates were for just the 4 pc. body kit.
Thanks for hangin' in there. It's been a tough 3 months but Chris, Terry and I really want a kit that you guys are extremely happy with and we're doing everything we can to make sure it's perfect. Thanks again!
hey i don't drive my contour either! but that is my choice because I don't feel like having all of the michigan salted roads spit all the salt on the underbody of my car
Will it be ready by the end of Feb or begining of March?
Thanks for spending all the time making it!
Dammmmmnnn...I wanna get the pre 98 kit so bad, but im afriad it'll look terrible with my stock wheels/rims...
do what i did...get new ones!
Yeah, but I'm in high school, so not much $$...maybe i could find some used rims on ebay or something...btw how big are the pre 98 gl's wheels? 14 inches right?
Terry, i got your email and replied with my number but i haven't heard from you yet, so if you didn't get it, let me know so I can pay you the rest of the money cause I need to know when the kit will be ready, hopefully really soon. Thanks, good lookin out!!

yes true but thats hard when you dont get money on a regular basis
but really as long as he gets the body kit painted I don't see it lookin THAT bad with or without hubs
I am not even in on this GB but I have to admit to being a spectator of it. It has really become quite the spectacle, an event.
I check in on it everyday. I thought some new pics and vids were supposed to be out a few weeks back?
Ans some soundclips also
Just think how we feel!

I meant for me. I'm beating you by 12 days then...not that it's something I really want to win, haha.
1-28-03 UpdateWhat's up everyone? Just wanted to let you all know the progress and what's going on right now. The sideskirts are now being finished as I type this. The original sideskirts that I sent Chris did not look right on the car so he is cooking us up a new, clean design. Check back frequently for pictures as they will be up soon.
Chris is also in the process of redesigning the back bumper because the original design from the Audi Kit proved to be too low for the Contour. Our exhaust sit's lower than the Audi A4 and after custom fitting it to our car, it was determined that it didn't look right. The new design will be a much better look for our cars and the same clean design principles and goals are still in mind. Because Chris know's the rear fascia much better now, it will not long to have the mold for the new design ready to roll. stay tuned.
So as of now we are a little behind schedule but we're looking to start shipping kits in 2-3 weeks. Thanks to all of you guys for your support and patience. Chris, Nirish and myself are all excited and anxious to roll this kit out for you. And trust me the end result will be more than worth the wait.

that's almost an understatement the kit will basically make u sh!t in your pants and probably rip part of your face open from grinning so much.

i'll wear old pants and a balacava or something to cover my face... i just want my car to be purdier!!!
cant wait though, thanks terry and chris!
(can someone PM me chris's phone number or e-mail address? thx)
hey speed demon, can you pay for my part of the kit??? kidding, just wanted to make you sh!t yourself before the kit comes so it'll be outta your system. I'm gonna be afraid to drive my car once I get the kit on, that's why I'm waiting till summer to put it on, I'll atleast have it on for 3 months before the retards at school can get a chance to screw it up.
I have a feeling I am going to be kicking myself for not getting in on this kit!
yippeee 2-3 weeks!!!!!!!
Sounds damn damn damn good to me ............Lets hope everythnig works out ok !
WOOOHOOO can't wait! I'm making sure I at Least got 1200-1500 dollars in the bizzank so i can get those Bizzatch's painted and put on
oh ya PICTURES
I Think the rear would look OK but i just wanted to compliement(spelling) you on your car. IT is VERY Cleanly done! Good Job
Thanks , (Spelling) not sure what you mean by that , OH i better trim that pic down some ...little big eh
that car is just begging for a body kit
LOL tell me about it ! I just hope it looks good on that color of a car .
Did you cut up the bumper to make the exaust fit? You might have to hve the exaust hang lower to fit in the new bumper. But I do like what you've done to her already.
Yeah i trimmed about 1 1/2 off it casue it was a little low .
{Notice the blacked out windows} thats what made my car look the best .
its taking a LONGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG time to get a picture , wonder why
I too am on the verge of insanity
I am a mere observer and even I can't take the suspense! I would probably be legally insane by now if I were in on this.

how about 700, I waited at customs 3 friggin hours for you and picked you up and all!
Eric
I cant set air fair prices ,
Hi Guys:
I thought I would give you an update since I just talked to Chris last night. Chris ended up having to move his shop to a new location; something about one of the renters in the complex going bankrupt
and Chris having to pick up their rent, so Chris set out to find a new shop. He's now settling into his new bungalow across the way.
I am going to Kaotic next Wednesday. You can imagine this would slow down business with the movement of equipment and all BUT the car is near completion
with the exception of the rear bumper which is being partically refinished. Chris will be sending photos shortly
- either before or after my visit.
I apologize for the delays guys
, much of it is due to shipping parts from the suppliers whom have taken forever in shipping parts.
Sorry about not posting up the sound clips, I had a bad sample and didn't want to blow out anyones speakers.

Man you're a hell of a guy.
Hey man thanks for the update. You and Hella have been great keeping us kiddies updated.
This quite possibly is the best CEG thread ever... A hot ass body kit AND hot ass women
LOL well im just hoping to keep this GP active, Im hoping i'll get my kit before i take off to bulgaira, Oh did i tell you that girl os from Bulgaria ! NOW that a idea , too bad we can make a group buy on a few dozer of girls the same as her
any way I can trade my spot in the group buy for that girl?
Nevermind...my car will be MUCH hotter!
HOW ABOUT BOTH !! if you want to see more of her click here
Bulgarian Girl OH i hope this kit comes along quickly , I might just have to leave for Bulgaira sooner
I'm saving my wows for when i hear my SOUND CLIP!!
lol maybe thats enough of that. But anyways, I am saving my wows for that video we were promised when Chris gets all settled again
I want someones BLACK SVT side skirts! Make me an offer at
mieskola@elvis.rowan.eduThanks!
AJ
LOL did you try the classifides ?
yeah, but noone ever reads them, and this is quite on-topic, since a lot of the people involved in this thread are probably looking to get rid of their ground effects soon. Plus, I brought the thread back to the top, so be happy
Post deleted by Lance Kinley
NUFF of the pics already, it don't belong here and i'd hate to see a long standing thread fall cuz of a few PERV's....
Have some patience as I have, it'll happen sooner if you stop thinking about it so much and get on with your damn lives, OR do you folks have one at all!!!!!!!
Come to Hawaii and I'll show what works all about in this "High Cost of Livinng State" and you'll forget all about the Body Kit in no time
IMUA
Some people on this site just ping too much. "No more girls please". Hey, chill out, its just eye candy while we wait.
either you're a girl or you're aging
if u call a typical guy reaction perverted then...oh well, don't know what to say
but whatever happened to those pictures?? still don't have that tooth ache do you??
Post deleted by Lance Kinley
uh oh...i think that one is gonna lead to some trouble
better link that
Alright guys thats enough. Us here in this particular Group Buy have been waiting too long and spending way too much time bumping this post to the top to see it get locked.
Don't get me wrong, I like the pics, but lets not get this, out of all posts locked.
Please!!!!
LOL Citation your going to get this thread locked! There are going to be a lot of pissed off people.
Anyways I thought you were going to introduce her to me when I go wit you? Whats up wit that!!
Eric
Yeah, I really like to check the 98 + Body Kit thread from work only to find pics of nearly naked women. Lets keep it focused here people.
Focus C10 focus, can anyone else get in this group buy? Is it too late?
I would have been in if I didn't already know it was going to be a year before anything happens.
Eric
HEHEHE. well to start with ,I would never complain about a chick being in a thread Unless , either #1 i was Gay ,#2 IF IT WAS MY SISTER, or i was really old, but then i think i would stil like it if i was old . Other then that since i have ran a few forums myself and MOD/ ADMIN would not be too smart to LOCK a thread casue of a pic other then him going to the little Admin button next to Main Index and simply taking out the pic. Sorry for the posts of the hot chic, i wasnt really thinking that would upset people here. OH great idea, lets get a group buy on them Raimbow Stickers !!! j/k
PS Eric i didnt recive another E mail from Evita yet but i will .
The point is that many people access this site from work and could get in a heap of trouble. You should not expect to see that sort of thing in a thread about a body kit.
Now if something like that shows up in common interests section, at least I know not to go there from work.
Where are these elusive audio clips of the new system. It will be music to my ears I am sure.
Well she's not naked and you see these girls on TV dont you and in SwimSuits.....I could see if she was naked , some peeps would be a little upset , but then again this forum surprises me from time to time
Again, I am talking about WORK here....WORK....WORK. I don't look at swimsuit models and things like that from work.
I dunno...maybe I should just get to work....lol.
Well does your work know on on this forum while your getting PAID to work ? ........HAHA, just kidding man , if i was worried about that i would go to Internet Explorr and set it to not post images off the site.
NOW GET TO WORK MAN !!
I'm going to get in trouble someday accessing this site
oh wait, nevermind I run this place
Still I'm going to have to discipline myself
If you guys don't see me for awhile I put myself on probabtion for 1 day
Thanks,
Eric
I'm thinking to myself " with 16 new posts there HAS to be some pics of it!" Ohh wait, it's CEG, what was I thinking...

Just think. Some other unsuspecting soul now has at least two new posts thanks to you and me. We are so evil.
This body kit is going to be sweet though. Any news?
I dont think it will ever be done ? Its taking so long !
must be the first time this guy has made a body kit ?
FRirst off SONNY I'm 27, secondly, isn't it great to have the internet, you can call a guy gay with no consequences. Lucky for any of you, you didn't have to tell me that in my face
Now back to the issue,
The pics are not the issue here, it's the placement of them. I've been checking back to this thread a couple times a week and I'm suprised at how long this thread has been going on for and it would be
FU**ED
up if it takes a few little children who need to beet off all the time on CEG rather than do it on there own time and a moderator decides to close this thread, CATCH MY DRIFT!!!!
Some of you need some

Here check out this pic's of

WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH SOME OF YOU PEOPLE?
ahahaha
you people freakin wine too much...the thread has not been locked so sit back and wait for pictures
if CEG wanted you to become a forum nazi they'd give you mod power.
so sit back, shut up, and wait for the pics...and sound clips
AHAHAHHAH, taking the words right out of my mouth , !!
damn JiggaJerry
, your a cool dude to have around when i need backup !!
I dont care about the girl i just want my body kit!!!!!
Pics have been deleted.
Posting them is in violation of the Forum rules.
Further posting will result your loss of forum privileges.
Some of us work in places where we can get fired for having that on our screens.
Grow up and stay on topic.

Thanks!
I'm not going to scold anyone since Lance has spoken - If you think you have it bad, just remember - I havn't had my car for several months for you guys, for CEG.
- Back on topic -
I'm visiting the shop Wednesday like I said before and reasons why this stuff is taking longer than expected have been explained mulitple times by Terry and I. The Gods of Shipping have not been on our side plus some things didn't work (i.e. the side skirts, rear bumper). We have done our best to keep you all in the loop and ensuring this is the best kit for our audience.
Just be ready to soil your boxers on release date.
I've already soiled my boxer waiting, numerous times!
Thanks alot for the update though. I'll be here Wed. to check out those pics you're promising us.
Hey man on a serious note, Thanks for all the time, and time away from your car you and Terry have put into this. I'm sure it will be worth the wait.
OH i'll be here on wednesday too for sure
Here it Wed. and this thread is 3 pages deep with no pics as promised...
It is still early out there in Kalifornia. Take it easy.
This has seriously become one of the most annoying threads ever. I extend my thanks to anyone who posts useful information and not pointless whining and post whoring. I am patiently waiting for the kit, and pictures in the meantime. It will be done when it gets done, and pictures will get here when they get here. Continuously posting "oh my god, i NEEEEEEEEEEEEEED pictures" isn't going to get a camera to walk over to the shop and take them. So, unless you have something intelligent to say, let the post fall where it falls, and STFU. nyceboi and hella will bring it "TTT" when they have pics or info.
oh my god, i NEEEEEEEEEEEEEED pictures

Seriously.
What's the point of "keeping it at the top"??
The GB is closed. nyceboi or hella will post pics when they get them. Stop being post whores.
Seriously,
What is the point of people complaining about bringing the thread to the top when by the very nature of their post it brings the thread to the top.
In the end, we have the very same situation in which we began.
The situation is worse actually as people respond to defend themselves.
It is really not that hard to not click on a thread.
People are just excited to get a product they ordered for the car they love. They get carried away sometimes yes. I am sure everyone will be plenty happy in the end.
[i guess this brings it to the top]

Hey I've been out of the loop for quite some time. I'm deployed right now and our internet is down 99% of the time. I sent in a deposit a long time ago but I don't think I made it into the first GB. Keep me informed if there's going to be a second batch made. Thanks.

we are in the group buy leo.

I know chris has had business issues and all that bad stuff but if i dont get this bumper soon i'm gonna be out even more cash and a few shows b/c i'm not gonna get my stock front-end resprayed then get the bumper re-sprayed again

I agree, I have been more than patient but I would like to see something new.
Yeah my poor car is just begging for this body kit , If i knew it was going to be this long i would have went out and got a SVT body, but i have patience so no biggie ......i just want to know whats going on.
Does this thing have any more pics then the few of the front?? I'd like to see the rest of the kit.
I can't even load THOSE front-end pics anymore...
yeah, im going to panama city for spring break and i wanted to have my body kit on by then. And i ordered a slidin ragtop but i dont think either of them will be here by then. Just as long as there here by showfest!
Ya and i'm SPENDING ALL MY MONEY so I need that kit before i run out!
hella? nyceboi? hellooooooooooooo..
can we please get something to atleast chew on? we all tossed in our chips already.
Big
Blue
Ba
lls
This was the kit's final design right?
Sorry guys i had to. I was reading through ALL the threads again to find out what this kit is made of, and stumbled acrossed this pic!
But, no really wheres the pics of the ACTUAL KIT that were supposed to be here LAST Wednesday? WE NEED SOMETHING HERE GUYS!!!!!!!!
LOL WAKE UP MAN >>>>>>>>YOUR DREAMING<<<<<<<<
YES a snowplow/front bumper!!!
perfect for the weather!
that would be pretty dope...if they had like a $1500 kit or somethin that came with that hood, those lights, that front bumper, maybe some better side skirts and a rear, possibly a spoiler too...hmmmmmmmmm
we're doing our best to get this kit out for you guys. We have competition nipping at our heals, anxious customers talking smack and a deadline that we passed a month ago. It has taken more than a year to get this body kit off the ground and if you think I'm going to release a dissapointing product after all that time, you're definitely mistaken. The new deadline has been pushed to early March. The reason why?
1. Chris had to set up a new body shop after an unexpected situation arose with the shop he used to share space with.
2. The back bumper design did not look as good as we originally hoped. A redesigned rear fascia is being molded as we speak.
3. The first 2 sets of sideskirts did not look right. New ones are being sent to Chris and if everything turns out right these will work out to our satisfaction.
Some of you have chosen to lose your patience which is a little dissapointing since we're all in this together. I've invested 100's of hours of my time, $1000's of cash out of my own pocket and Chris has done the same and then some. Nirish has been without his SVT for 4 months and you don't see anything but optimism and confidence coming from all 3 of us. I expect the same from all of you.
Hold tight and I promise you this kit will meet all your expectations and then some.
I'm sure everyone is grateful to be apart of this, especially me, this kit couldn't be coming at a better time. My wife just informed me that she some how managed to scrape our front bumper a couple days ago. I wasn't all that upset because I know I'm just going to be replacing it with a much better one.
can I have the reject back bumper and side skirts???
As
Terry states, Cool your folks Jet's!!!!
It'll happen and the less you folks sweat about it the sooner it may be reality, but you folks are like the guy that goes to work and from the minute he gets there, he's already looking at when he will be finish instead of just doing his job and letting the work day just past right on by! Sure wheather you're looking at your watch every 2min. or just letting the day be doesn't change the length of time but it sure eases the pain
Aloha, Micah

Why are people still talkin' smack? If the short life of the Contour no production kit was ever made...you've waited this long... what's waiting some more?
I've endured 4 months (4 months of car payments and insurance!) and not once have I been upset or aggitated - I've been nothing but happy that this is happening and understand the sacrafices it takes to satisfy the more than 30 people in on this GB.
My cooperation has no bounds as I have made a bigger sacrafice for CEGers than any of those talkin' smack have done thus far.
The next time I will post here will be when the kit is finished, thank you to those who have waited patiently and understand exactly what is going on.
That's all I have to say...
dont missunderstand me, i've been waiting paitently its just that issues are arising and the lack of feedback from chris, terry, and nyceboi is a little disheartening... i'm just really anxious is all, i worked hard to get my car into the ISCA circuit world of wheels this year and i'd like to not let myself down, i'm nearly finished with a 36 hour slam job of replacing my interior, installing xm radio, neons strobes blah blah blah blah blah and i had hoped to send the car straight to paint after this so i hope you can understand my feelings.
anyhow early march is cool. as long as early march is when it'll ship
OR ELSE ILL GET MAD AND DO MEAN STUFF LIKE TALK SMACK ON TEH MESSAGE BOARDS!!! </keyboard cowboy>
no offense meant guys just gettin anxious and bunched up here during 'crunch time'

I have not seen anyone talkin' smack (w/the exception of the Jiggas), all I see are customers who have nicely asked for an update. Seems like everyone is so anal around here.. Can't say anything without setting someone off.
Why is it so hard just to get a little picture ? just so we can take a taste of the action ?

me??? what did I do? I just asked for the reject stuff...
I dont believe anyone was talking smack...
however: i recall being told that pictures would be up soon, and now "i won't post until the kit is finished" ?
PREVIOUS POST:
[I am going to Kaotic next Wednesday. You can imagine this would slow down business with the movement of equipment and all BUT the car is near completion with the exception of the rear bumper which is being partically refinished. Chris will be sending photos shortly - either before or after my visit.]
it's not that we have to wait...because i realize i have to wait even longer (pre-98) it's just what was told to us... and then no updates. Pictures of a non finished product is atleast something.
my guess is since they scrapped the other ones...which were probably going to be in the pictures...they haven't got far enough to be able to present us with the rear and sides
when they have the rear and the sides as far along as the front then my guess is they'll have pics then...
Originally posted by nyceboi:

So you kept insurance on your car because...?
DAMN i would have changed my insurance to Storage insurance.
Mines on storage right now, just took the rear bumper off, so THIS WILL HAPPEN.... (or i'll have to put it back on)
Early March is in means they would have to have it finished in about 2 weeks! That means there going to have to work verry hard to get it done by then. Thanks guys!!!
I cant wait till it gets here. Try to post pics as soon as possible. ~Jaime

nyceboi (dunno if i spelled that correctly) has been waitin forever for his own car...
and yes im impatient too
Yeah , well its 1AM and i have been coming here since 10AM refreshing hoping some kind of pic would be posted LOL ,Maybe next week , , lets hope so.
I'm actually pretty suprised, nearly 20,000 views to this thread later and unfortunately no finish products yet???
Oh well, seems things are changing each week. I ck back here periodically and I've seen numerous dates posted for the finish product. Anyone got to speak to Terry yet about this?? Anyway just curious as to the progress, I haven't seen a post by Terry in awhile.
LOL , im gonna keep my mouth shut until monday comes around .
nuttin like seeing a bunch of Audi Contours rollin around
kit looks sweet though.. hope this doesn't happen. If it does I'll have the second best lookin tour in Fort Myers and that can't happen.
Eric
AH well who knows ! , it could look like a big space ship too
If you think it took a long time for pics
wait and see how long it will take to make each one!

Now back to the issue, The pics are not the issue here, it's the placement of them. I've been checking back to this thread a couple times a week and I'm suprised at how long this thread has been going on for and it would be FU**ED up if it takes a few little children who need to beet off all the time on CEG rather than do it on there own time and a moderator decides to close this thread, CATCH MY DRIFT!!!!
Some of you need some
Agreed.
Lance has deleted threads with pics of women in them.
Want to post pics of women? Go somewhere else.
right pete you would know
Thanks for the prayers , But i think we mght need a little more .....Like a miracle ?
Arent they supposed to be shipped TOMORROW ? ?
why don't you guys stop complainin!
i'd rather wait as long as it takes, for them to make sure that it is perfect, then get some half ass s#!T!
i've been in this GB since the begining, and i've only posted 2 times. it doesn't make any sence for you guys to go on here every day and post, it's not gonna make the kit come out any faster.
as for dates being set for the kit comin out. i didn't see Terry(Hellahydro) get on here and tell you guys that the kit comes out on set dates, that was a rumor. you guys need to stop livin in the clouds.
to put it simple!
either wait, or go somewere else!
how much for those Imagine's lol?
Citation: STFU
Jerry: you're a moron
OKay....how the HELL are the body kits gonna be shipped if not everybody has PAID in FULL?!?!?!? Last time I checked you had to pay for the kits first. gawd... if Hella does not post do not start this whole thing about when it's going to be done and shipped. 'Cuz that just starts this bloody BS nobody who is serious about this kit needs.
Like imprtkllr said - they are trying to make the kit perfect which meant several revisions had to be made and somethings worked and somethings didn't and other unforeseen problems. These are TOP quality kits made with the best materials - Chris is one of the best body guys on the West coast with a huge portfolio of cars and trucks under his belt - a lot of time has been put into this kit to get our cars attention - CUZ ARE CARS GET NO ATTENTION!
For anybody reading this who is in on the GB - posts by Hella, Crofty or myself are the only legitimate ones in regards to the kit.
don't mind my dyslexic typing..lol so many *sp and *gmr
Thank you for your time.
for nyceboi!post some of chris work!just to keep this post

I think out of Citation's 1200+ posts a third of them are on the GB post....LOL
Anyway, Hella... can we atleast send you payment so that when they are done or ready, the cash will be there and you can just ship these puppies. I don't even remember what this kit was going to cost

aye you can have mah money right now if i can get mah kit sooner when its ready
and if speed demon is serious, i guess i'd be giving my part at same time, which is fine with me, it's burning a hole in my pocket.
Its Mid-March Hella, any word, any update, can we atleast pay you? The delay is not a problem and I understand perfection is your goal, but we need to hear from you.
TY
hey hella whats the up date
Hows the kit Terry? Any new updates since last post?
yep ... ??? ... ???
wishing and wondering?
J
i think by now we should at least get pictures
I'm bout ready to give up on this.
Me too cuz i HAVE TO have a body kit by May, that was the whole point of ordering one. But i also appreciate all the time and effort they are putting in to this and that they wanted it so perfect that they redid the whole kit. But if it doesnt hurry im gonna have to just buy another one.
this gives me time to save up for rims & the body kit...
Just chill, it is coming, We want it to looking its best right!
I am just as impatient as the rest but it will come!
WEll i hope it comes soon...cuz a guy thats waiting on it is giving me his SVT kit.....do any of you patient ones what to hand me your kit and get his later????
I used to come here and complain more then anyone, BUT after talking to Hella on the phone, I realize that he is doing everything he can...Thats why im just not posting dumb comments ......believe me guys it will be done when itâ??s DONE.....

Thats fine, I understand that. But Hella, can you atleast drop a line, are you still alive Hearing nothing sucks, hearing we have to wait another month is better then silence....
hunddog I am in the same boat...I want someones SVT rear and Sides, perferably T-red
Yup, I got in an accident!!!!
I need Another SVT Body Kit now..
Anyone who feels like helping a poor college student out who if the draft goes into effect *Ima be [censored]*
Umm PM me or Email me or something!!! I Need the FRONT/Skirts the most!!!!
Thanks!
Hey guys what's up. I'm co owner of kaotic with chis.. We wanted everyone to know the Front and rear bumper molds are done. we're working on the side skirts as soon as we have them finsihed we'll be posting pics of the completed kit.. I'm sure everyone will know it was worth the wait.
Thats great news thanks for the update.

I'M NOT BELIEVING ANYTHING UNTIL I HEAR FROM HELLA HIMSELF, OR NYCEBOI!
guys i want to thank you for your patience. The back bumper is in fact being finished up and I just sent Chris the new sideskirts that we're going with. These will take 3 days to create the mold for after they get there. Trust that as soon as everything is finished, pictures will be up and payments will be accepted. i know i've stuck my neck out there a few times about the release date so i don't want to do that again but it's a good bet kits will begin shipping by the last few days of march if everything looks right and i believe that it will.
the front end and hood looks so insane and better than the original pictures that i cannot wait much longer for this. the main concern is just making the back bumper look as tight as possible. and you guys are going to flip when you see how the sideskirts look
.
there you go kiddies!!
hella, are we gonna have extra fiberglass to cut off the kit, or is it gonna be a direct paint and bolt on?
OH AND THANX FOT HE UPDATE!
this is exciting news. gives me some more time to save up for the pre-98... which i don't think will take NEARLY as long
Woah cool , and i just about spent money i didnt have !! Thank god i didnt spend any lute !
Thanks for the update Hella. Just let us know how and when to pay, cant wait to see the pics
What kind of design is the hood? Is it carbon fibre or just a scoop/vent molded into the existing hood?
and can you give me an example?

Is that an additional charge? will that go to be true for the pre-98's?
Sounds good, Terry. Thanks for the update.

Damn, the people of Iraq before the war knew more about what was goin on (even with their defense minister saying "no they are not here") then what we are being told about this GB.

So do all of us. Hella has been on here lately but not telling us anything.
Is anyone from up near cleveland going to be wanting to get rid of their back bumper cheap when this happens?
I got a whole SE kit for sale from a 95SE
wow. it is looking a lot better. good job on this hella.
that was a fun day - I actually drove my car yesterday!!
I tell you what, it looks soooooooooooo BEAUTIFUL IN PERSON!
I'll post video in a couple hours.
you should start another thread with these pics. i dont think anyone ever looks here anymore.
the largest thread in the history of CEG and no one ever looks here huh? lol
naw, it has taken so long is the reason it is the longest thread in history. it isnt necessarily a good thing. if you post those sweet pics in a new thread that will be the longest thread in history that got there the fastest. as you can see you me and nyci are the only ones here. just trying to help.
looks great terry! hope you produce these for the pre 98s!
how is the widebody kit going to be sold? are flared fenders going to be sold seperatly and then have to be molded? how much of an additional cost are the flared fenders? sorry if this has already been covered, but it would take me all day to read through 800 replies lol.
I'm not in the GB, but that thing is gonna look nice! I give it a big WOOO WOOOO!
I'm not in on this either but it does look nice...
I might be down for one of those hoods once this all get worked out.
Tight thanks for the info. I am very interested in upgrading to the wide bodykit. How much longer of a wait would that be, and what would the cost be?
Is this when we do the "oooh...aaaahhhh"? I love the look, great work so far! Hope you make one for the pre98 gang eventually
I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!! Just in time, hopefully the guy that hit me's insurance will be paying for my kit!

Doug off the top of my head I believe the widebody option will add another $300 to the $650 price. Do not quote me on that though just yet. You will have the option of having the fenders either bolted on or molded, of course molding will provide a better look.
Here is the pricing for the widebody per Chris at Kaotic Innovations, Terry and myself:
For those of you who already are IN the group buy we will be selling the widebody for $425. This will be an exclusive price for those people in the body kit group buy and is designed to go with this body kit.
This will consisit of:
* A left and right fiberglass fender replacement
* Add-on peices of the front bumper and front doors to sideskirts (can be bolted on or molded)
* Rear flare pieces for back bumper, body panel and doors (can be bolted on or molded)
POST HERE IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN THIS UPGRADE SO WE CAN ASSESS INTEREST
----------------------------------------------------------
The GB price of the fiberglass hood is $350 (you do not have to be in the body kit group buy for this hood) PM me (Nirish aka NYCEBOI) if you are interested in this hood (SUBJECT: HOOD v1). There is a fast turn around on this item but it will go into production after the bodykit is in production.
The hood will consist of:
* Full functional hood scoop - we are currently working on a box set up to route the air to the intake or leaving it open. In either case we are taking into consideration things like water entering the passage.
* new hinges
You will have to reroute the ground wire on the stock hood to the firewall or some bare metal piece.
Hood pins are required but you will have the option of having us drill the holes for you or you can opt not to have that done.
More details on the hood after the body kits go into production.
i can't wait. my car is ready to go to the shop for some special molding
, and paint
THE 2005 CONTOUR SVT
SHOW FORD HOW ITS DONE!!!!!CEG!!!!!!!
OMFG Terrry you are the man, I need to save up some money and quick. I want that freaking hood
if only the widebody cost less
,, glad to see progress. hopefully the pre98 kit won't take as long, hopefully not, since only the front and widebody parts will have to be made. I may have to go ahead and put the sides and rear on while waiting for the pre98 front.
Is that hood gonna be functional for duratecs and zetecs (not that I'm interested in getting it, I prefer carbon fiber
)? Thanks for the updates.

are you talking to me? you didn't mention zetec or duratec. Is the box set up for zetec or duratec or both? i didn't ask anything about water. don't know why people on here just can't give simple answers.
So you cannot buy this piece by piece right? Would anyone like to go into this GB with me, with them only wanting the sides and front? I have SVT sideskirts already, and the front won't fir pre-98, but the rear will. PM me.
this GB has already been finalized. They're supposed to sell the kits after the GB though.
As stated the bulk buy is over - this originally started last year around August. After the bulk buy is over the kit will go into production at a different price, same with the widebody and hood.
The widebody is currently only open to those who are in the GB, this makes sense since the pieces are designed for this particular kit. The hood will not require you to have been part of the original GB to get - but those who are in the GB will more than likely get priority for the first production hoods.
I am down for both the hood and the wide-body kit ... post more info when its ready.
Cool ...
Thanks Guys!
Jared
Well, I was just curious, I'm waiting for the pre-98 GB on this now.
the pre98 will probably start in a month or two with the first production parts rolling out soon afterwards. This will go by faster since all the R&D has been done and the only thing that has to be modified is the front bumper for the 4 piece kit.
oh [censored] I am so in on this for the pre98s
*note to self, keep extra $650 around*
are there any pics of how the wide body is going to look? I didn't see any earlier...
Pix of the widebody will up up next week - it's finished but we needed pix without the widebody for purposes of the original gb.
Had to keep it hush hush so we can bust out with everything + the bodykit. And we're still not done
Hey nyceboi are those wheels 18's? Also what kind of suspension do you have? I am just trying to get an idea of how much ground clearence there will be.
BTW, will you guys be making a pre-98 hood w/ FULLY functional scoop? Because I can tell you right now I'm all over that if you are.
Looks real nice, need to see pictures with it all done and painted, and closeups.
good job terry
"good job terry, chris and nirish (nyceboi)"
Yes we will be developing a fully functional hood for the pre98s. I'm working on a slightly different apperance for the pre98s so it would be different from the post98s. It will still be functional.
And can someone send me a picture of the Zetec engine bay. And please tell me how much clearance you have from the top of the hood to your engine. Thanks.
Where has all my money gone?
Can you maybe give me a little bit of an idea of what the pre-98 scoop will be nyceboi? I really like the scoop on the 98+ right now, and if you guys can pull off that re-routing deal you were talking about, that'd be badass. But hey, I'm open to all sorts of different things. PM me if you like.
will the widebody be offered for the pre98s as well?
im getting the sides and rear, and i ahve a pre98 bumper from micah, would the widebody work with that? and would it work with my CF hood im getting?
The hood is independent of the widebody or body kit since it's a piece that stands on its own.
The widebody is designed for our kit but probably with enough modification can me made to work on a SVT bumper. Anything is possible with bondo and fiberglass
Currently the widebody is only being offered as an upgrade to those people who where in the initial group buy.
We are looking into an equal amount of aftermarket for the pre98 Contour guys aswell. Naturally everything for the pre98 will come out faster since all the R&D has been done to develop this kit and we already have a pre98 goin into the shop when the SVT is out (we've scrapped a lot of designs to get where we are + the widebody and hood added time but well worth it to grow aftermarket support for our cars!)
Thats sounds very cool. I am going to purchase the pre-98 body kit along with the hood. Have you given any thought as to placing the hood scoop on drivers side. I know most of us have a KKM, K&N, etc. It would be nice to have the air directly over the open filter.
that's one of the ideas we threw around - for the pre98's its a possibility
I'm most definatley in on the hood. It looks sweet!
I'd like the hood scoop in the middle like that, but with some sort of re-routed dilly to the right. If I got a scoop on the right, I'd have to get one on the left, because I'm huge on symmetry.
Damn that looks really tight. I wish I could get that kit. Nice job!
thanks for the pictures - now quick rename them before i go post nazi on you
i think with zetecs, you can make it be true ram air. just get a filter that will fit right at scoop, re wire the MAF and IAT so they can reach to right above the TB, and it would be awesome. that may be too much work for ya'll to do though.
OMG Mikey Boy that looks sweet! With color on the whole thing it flows so much better. You guys are gonna make me want this if you're not careful.....
Yes, now I'm DEFINITELY pissed I backed out of this!!!!
You guys were right from the beginning...

it's not that - it's just flooding the forum. It's cool, but that's why I asked they be sent to me instead of being posted. Thanks anyway though, I appreciate it.
I think i might want a hood , how much do you guys think instalation and paint would be?
is there going to be an option for side skirts, these skirts would look nice on a widebody kit but i'd prefer the first skirts that were shown at the beginning of this thread over these. anyways there still a lot of time before the pre98 GB gets going.
There is no option on the side skirts. These side skirts flow well with the tire side end of the front and rear bumpers. I'll have to post a video so you can get an idea of how it will flow
I've gotten some questions on what suspension i'm running. I have the BAT suspension on 18" wheels 225/40 tires (the KDW-2!)
The exhaust is the Brullen.
The car sits low on the stock SVT E1s - drove the car around on the 16's when I went on Tuesday. The kit is lower than the SVT front and higher than the Mirko. I did have to use different riding techniques - going at bumps at angles and stuff. But that's expected when you do something like this. I did some crazy ass hills too! Every store in that town is on a hill. I did scrap my first time cuz I forgot it was low and I went straight at it - OUCH. lol.
I take it there is no more body kits???? or is there going to be a re-order.
-Ry
I think there is the intitial Group Buy and then the kits will be on sale at a slightly higher rate from that point on. So start saving the pennies.
Hella all I can say is, WOW!!! I was concerned about the whole sideskirt deal after seeing the original pics but I think you folks made a very good decision with the design. At least it's nothing like the stock side skirts which will give a truly whole new look all in it's own.
??? On the WideBody Kit I will assume that the change will make the current tire/wheel setup out of place?? I've already contacted H&R and they tell me they offer a 25mm (1") Spacer that'll come with longer Studs. What's your take on this?
Originally posted by PXRacing:

Hey Micah - thanks for info! I'm handling the hood and widebody. We are suggesting a 25mm spacer if you really want the widebody look with the wheels flush. I will be posting pix of the widebody with the 18s end of this week. When we had the widebody on there we only had the stock 16s and it didn't look that bad - the 18s with widebody look even better of course and with the spacers it would be over!
PM me the link - I need to know if the longer studs will still allow me to put the ADR center cap on since the stock studs from the E1s won't let me.
I doubt they'll know but I pm'd you there website! Since I have SSR GT1's and have no center cap covering the lugs I wasn't concerned about that so you'll needd to call them and find out.
the spacers should give a 2" wider track which is pretty substantial IMO, and a benefit in my book!!
I am on the group buy any one need a svt body kit with mirko splitter. any buyer email me
benallyjm@phoenix-cement.com let me know. need to make some money
Here is a close up of the hood:
is there going to be some kind of grill in the scoop like they have on the WRX's??
hehe I see a small portian of the "wide body" on the right side
I don't see anything
I should have pics of the widebody on the car this week if I make it up there.
I should say regardless - the pics will be up, whether I make it or not.

What's that at the far right??? (white looking)
Widebody :P . I wanna see painted pics , and maybe what it looks like from underneath.
I think NYCEBOI would like to see it painted more than anyone of us!
when is the money due for the kits
Whats up hella I was re-reading your post on page 81 and I saw something I missed the first time
"here are some new pics. back bumper needs another week and then it will be posted. 2 back bumpers will be offered. Widebody kit will be available at an extra cost. hood will be around $350 in fiberglass, much much lighter and of course functional. below is what the skirts will look similiar to when painted. more info later tonight, im still at work."
So whats up with the two different back bumpers? Any pic's will one still have the exhaust sticking right out of it. I am very currious about how they will vary the flow of the rest of the kit. Thanks again for making this happen.
good lord, thats beautiful!!! please make these for the pre 98 contours!!!
OH...
MY...
GOOD...
LORD......
'scuse me, I need to go clean up now.....
that s#!t looks bangin!
can't wait to get mine!!
and still no pics of the rear ... ???
I know I was mad when no one was posting pics but now they have to stop. I'm going to have to list my first born on Ebay for the extra money for the wide body kit now!
i know this stuff takes time, but you got to hurry up, this is killin me!!!!!!
after seeing what they are coming up with i'd stop complaining about how long its taking by now....obviously they are doing a tremendous job
any chance we can get preinstalled mesh with the kits, maybe for a few bucks more? and we do need a pic of the rear.
Yeah that's a good idea Kermit..
guys get a hold of terry because the parts will start going out in two weeks...body kit is done. I am finishing up the widebody and hood in the next two weeks also.
Guys i am making a second rear bumper and a second front fo your cars....terry is getting me the addys and i will send each of he confirmed buyers a pm with full shipping cost.
looks badass. can't wait to see the rear
are the kits ready to be shipped? i know you have one rear done but are we waiting for another to be made before we can pay and receive the kits? i'm confused when am I supposed to send the rest of my money and when are the kits being shipped?

Unfortunatly the group buy has been closed since October/November of last year. We will be selling the kit late summer at a higher price after everyone in the Group Buy has theres - stay tuned.

^^^^^^do u know the answer nyceboi?
We are going to figure out shipping costs soon and the rest of the money is due after we show pix of both rear bumpers (the one shown in pic n vids is a version of the first bumper that we trashed - you can tell in the pic it's trashed, similar but the new one is cleaner).
New bumper pix will be up 2morrow!
nyeboi did you get my pm... god i can wait for the kit i already sold my old one to get this one..looks great....

FOOD FOR THOUGHT: In spanish culture tomorrow could mean the next day, next week or whenever
I don't smell anything. Jeez, I loan my FUGGIN CAR for over 6 months and this is the thanks I get? Good looking out... I appreciate YOUR patience. The logout link is in the upper right hand corner of your screen - or please direct your browser to www.hondahookup.com 8!tch all you want there - they have an abundance of products - you'll never have to complain there.
Be greatful there is a kit happening for a car that hasn't been in production in three years and when it was in production - had a life span of three years...
Here's my new quote for complainers "What have you done for CEG?"
damn I need an AMEN
AMEN!
niceboi, your patience is to be commended. I know I would not have been able to part with my car for that long. While it is understandable that many are anxious to get the final product, I am sure that under thier anxiety is a true desire to make sure this product is right the first time.
Frankly, I wish i had made it on the GB, but it looks like i may have to bust out the $$$ at a later date to have my Contour look as good as yours is going to look.

no pre-98 love.
Hey, can anyone tell me about how much longer its going to be until we send the rest of the money. I really need to order new rims but the limit on my credit card will only let me order one thing at a time. So if its going to be this month ill just wait to order the rims, but if its gonna be awhile ill just order them now. THanks Jaime Lea
you should just get the rims casue i think it will be some time before the body kit will be done "new pic's tomorrow ! "
AutoExeBat...dude. You need to chill a bit brau. This kit has been what, a year or more in the making? People have been bustin there butts to make this kit the highest quality possible, and made some super sacrifices (no SVT for 6 months???) for it. I'm normally really easy on newbies, but man, comin in here with less than 10 posts and then bashin on the guys who are making this possible is just not cool. Sit down, be patient and the kit will be done shortly, when it's been made as good as it can be made. Bitchin on here doesn't get it done any faster and doesn't do anyone any good.
Girliegirl- my advice would be to maybe PM Hydro or Nyce and see if either of them can give you a better idea of when deposits may be taken. I would say within the next few weeks myself, but thats total guess as I have no knowledge of the details on production
actually this comming week - pix of BOTH bumpers will be up. unfortunatley we have a life too and can't work on the SVT 24/7
hehe.. thanks for understanding guys!

I paid in full a long time ago.
I want to see both completed versions of the rear bumper before I say "Ship it!".
Hey i was wondering if there are any spots left in this body kit group buy. I would really like to get in on it and have a body kit on my contour by the end of summer let me know if anyone can help me out if so email me at

I believe ImprtKllr is selling his spot - PM him... I think I spelled his screen name wrong but just seach the last 3 or 4 pages of this GB and you should see his post.

so what would we owe now...with shipping?
shipping will be determined soon enough - look anywhere from $75-$200 depending on where you are (overseas would probably be like $200) BUT I'm just guessing here, Kaotic will figure out pricing.
The kit will go into production @ the rates in the link in my profile later summer. There are no Group Buy spots available.
oh shyt... im gonna get royally skrewed on shipping...Ft.Lauderdale...California..... i didn't even think about the shipping costs till now...

can somebody get those pics of the 2 rear bumpers crofty posted up so i can see what they look like. all i see are 2 red squares with x's in them. And the link for them is also down. Thanks
those were just of an inprogress bumper. We will have both rears hopefully sometime in the coming week. Things have been hectic on both our parts... I can't seem to make time to get out there and he's just one of two people in one shop working on 5 or so cars at a time. He's doing the best he can, i've been there a lot and I see Chris more of a friend now than just the bodykit guy. Trust me, he does bust his ass for this car and shows a lot of enthusiasm in creating an abundant aftermarket for the cdw27. We've been working together on making new parts too - these cars won't be seen as grandma rental cars any more
So are we suppost to be sending the rest of the money now?
I don't mean to be the annoying person whining about updates, but I need an update so I can do some planning....I don't have a front bumper right now so I need some idea of what to expect as far as a time frame...
Heres an update: it will never be ready, sounds like b/s to me
. You all couldve made your own by now.
Hella check your PM's please.
Also someone kick this kid off the boards we dont need his crap. And dont reply and waste bandwidth, you already did it once.....worthless

so where's the kit u made?
Someone should build a body kit out of legos. That would rule. Lego's kicked ass when I was a kid. Maybe even an entirly lego(ized) car would be kinda sweet. NM I need sleep I think.
Didn't the lego company used to build life sized lego cars for displays or atleast have contests to have people build them? I don't think any of them actually had engines though.
"You owe me a 10 second lego car"
I actually live by Legoland and I think I remember hearing that they have a really cool lego car on display. Don't know for sure though....it's more expensive than Disneyland.
if i recal right they do have a lego car, not sure if it drives tho.

Sweet me and my cuz are taking his son to legland probably in a couple of weeks. Maybe I'll get a pic of the legoland car...hell maybe I'll steal it and put my svt motor in it!
Guys my image uploader are out of commission. As per the kits the four peice kit is done and ready to ship. The new rear is going into mold this week. Just got back fom a trip. Sorry. The kits will start shipping as soon as we receive the money as for shipping you can prepay, but for quotes i need a list of addys and phone numbers to give you a price. If you get teh money in we will send out your kit. The widebody and hood are on their way to finish and mold now. As nyce boi stated i am running a large shop on a skeleton crew....myself and another person. We have a lot of other stuff going on with the contour to include a vast aftermarket. I hope that we can create a vast clientel off of this site, but in order to do that we need you guys to wrap up the bulk buy. Thank you for your patience and we hope you guys are pleased with quality and service.
Hey whats up Crofty,
First of all thanks for the update. Could I get an a quote on how much my shipping will be for the 4 piece kit, and the widebody. Seeing as I have allready paid in full mine should be one of the first kits shipped right? Here is the address
Ship to:
Roberts Restorations
4275 Acker Rd. #3
Madison W.I. 53704
Thanks,
Doug
Ship to:
Certified Auto Electric
C/O Bill Greenberg
225 Northfield Rd
Bedford OH 44146
216-310-6555
Now all we need to know is what is still owed and where the heck to send it to
2 questions:
1.Were two bumpers made and when do we choose if so?
2.Can it be shipped to a residential address or does it have to go to a business?
I was just curious about an E.T.A. on when there will production for people outside the group buy since I missed out? Are the prices going to double? I'd be interested in the 4 piece + widebody.

check my sig
Ok, I just checked and I sent a deposit 5/23/02 yes, that is correct 2002! Can I atleast get a total with shipping quote sent to me and where to send it. If the kit is ready for shipping, this info would speed things along......everyone has been patient and yes, things do not go as planned, but lack of communication and information really doesnt help.
Edit- Hella, I still have not heard back from you on the 1/0 cable. Please let me know so I can ship your items....
I PIF back in December... I placed the order under Ashley Hall and would like to have it sent to:
Hall Electric Inc.
15693 Anderson Ln.
Ft. Myers, Fl 33912
Thanks
I sent in the deposit back in 2002 also , but im really wanting to see the rear bumper before i go through with this .
Sep 25, 2002 Payment To Terry Knight Jr

I am also running around with out bumpers and side skirts... let me know the price that i need to pay with shipping. thanks jay
I sure hope somebody can come up with these rear pictures , they have taken so many of the front and none of the rear........ARE they hiding something ?
Well...if there are no pix to take then there are no pix to take. I've already explained our reasoning many times.
Well if the kit is DONE the whats the problem ?
Maybe I missed something, but aren't there supposed to be 2 different rear bumpers to choose from?
Since this is the case, how do we order the kit without knowing which bumper to choose?
I paid IN FULL 7 MONTHS AGO...
EXACTLY thats what im asking , there wanting shipping addresses to ship something we dont even know what it looks like !
hes already said you get to choose which bumper you want...read the thread.

Okay... I see some confusion.
Yes there WILL BE (future) two different bumbers to choose from. WHEN (future) we post up pictures, you will get to decide THEN and your order WILL BE (future) processed after full payment with shipping.
We are not shipping out any kits right now - I want you guys to understand that yes you will see pix on my car before you actually pay in full or your kit is shipped.

My point is you have received some peoples shipping info and we would like to pay you for your work, but we cant! Why? No information, no shipping quote, you ask for something, we deliver it, and get nothing in return. I have no problem waiting longer for the kit to be released. I am not really ready for it yet. Its just that we are getting nothing done in the mean time, cant we atleast pay the man for the work he's done? Once kits are finally ready all you have to do is send them.
I guess my gripe is, you asked for info and nothing has been done with it. Then in a week or two, it will be, hey guys resend me your info and thats how things get mixed up....
Sorry about that guys... I never read Crofty's post and I see were the confusion came from.
************************
Okay... I am handling the GB and all KI stuff for CEG. If you are going to make full payment pay me throug paypal @
svt@nyceboicreations.comIf you are using paypal add 3% to your total, regardless of payment type - I have a premier account so I get nailed for recieving funds. In Canada add 3.5%.
I also will accept Money Orders and Cashiers Checks - NO PERSONAL CHECKS - we've had some problems with bounced checks. If you go this route I suggest you send it certified mail for peace of mind. If you don't want to pay extra fees from paypal I suggest going this route.
Once we get a fixed shipping schedule I can get you guys the best deals on shipping - kits will go out on a first paid first out basis regardless of when your deposit was in - I can't wait and hold up people who are ready with the money. If full payments are recieved within the next two weeks by everybody I will not change the order - after that anybody who did not pay will get bumped to the back until they pay.
I have a list from Terry of who has made deposits, this is not for newbies or people trying to get in on this kit last mintue. However - I have 3 spots open that I will give to the first 3 people who PM me with money ready - PAYPAL or MO/Cashiers BY TUESDAY. Yes 3 spots at $650 each. Once I have 3 confirmed there will be no more spots open. DO NOT PAY ME UNLESS I CONFIRM THAT I WILL ACCEPT YOUR PAYMENT.
All payments will be handled through nyceboi creations for kaotic innovations.
For those waiting for pix I will have them shortly (yes I know you've heard it before but for really this time).
If you've already paid in full you're already taken care of. I will start a list shortly of people in the GB and those that have paid in full.

i think this argument shows how this post is going round and round...nyce basically stated that no money is to be sent til the kits are ready to ship...some of u jumped the gun, so be it...
now if they were to instruct u to send your money now and u'll get the kit when it ships, then the 'where's the pics?' and 'how can we buy something we cant see?' quesions will still be raised
didnt mean any harm, but my bad anyway knu...after i posted my comments i read down and saw nyce's post...
i'll be glad when u all get your kits...those few cars are gonna really be special when its all said and done
Oh... if you're paying with Paypal please make the subject have "Kaotic" in there somewhere - this way it filters properly.
Thanks Knu for the payment.
gdub- no problems, just want everyone to have the proper info thats all
Nyce - I think I put Kaotic Kit as the topic
Thanks Again
off to get some

All remaining spots filled - if no payments are made by the 7th I will open up those spots unaccounted for.
nyce, i'm paid, kremit owes you the rest of ours, i'm concerned that people won't pay their remainders until they see the finished rear bumpers....
either way i see the front, its sexy, u got mah money
I've seen both back bumpers - I'm just waiting for finished pix of it on the car (coated and all).
People are slowly paying but yeah - I need those pix to get this thing jumpstarted.

YES! I think once the back bumper pics are posted, you will see more payments.
btw, the WB MO will be in the mail Tuesday!

yeah, once i can pick between the rears, i'll send money. why would I need to pay before the rear molds are made anyways? Don't worry I got the money, just waiting on pics.
nyce - I've been trying to get a hold of hella about my payment but I haven't been able to find him in the past few days. please dont give up my spot Ive been in from the beginning!!! circa 1 year ago
conor
Yeah I don't have an updated list yet of whose paid deposits or not. When I get the final list from Terry - you'll just have to match it for me to accept payment and your spot will be secured as long as you pay before we annouce the production date of the first kit..which is just around the corner.
If anyone is interested in selling their spot, I'm interested in buying it. PM me.
Any guys from SE Mi on here willing to sell their SVT kit when this comes in?
boys and goyles, keep your eyes peeled, tomorrow night or saturday morning you get a suprise
Could it BE??? the long-awaited sound clips??
Just letting you know that I am still in and that I have only paid my deposit. I was needing my total just for the kit without the widebody shipped to 41465. I plan on sending money order whenever I receive the total. I have had my deposit in from the start. You all have done excellent work and it has been well worth the wait.
Thanks
Matthew Holbrook
