drifter body kit
Sunday, August 26, 2007 7:08 PM
I was wondering if the body kit on gravana that is the drifter style was the same body kit on extreme dimensions as the drifter body kit? They are both for the cavalier. Here are the links.

Gravana.. http://www.gravanatuning.com/applications/2003_Chevrolet_Cavalier_Coupe_2.2_16v.aspx/5/4067/_Versus_Speed_Drift_Style_Cavalier_Body_Kit

Extreme Dimensions.. http://www.extremedimensions.com/7448.html

I really like the drifter inspired body kits. I was wondering why the gravana one was so much cheaper than the ed one. I figured it was cause the ed one was made of duraflex? Lemme know what you guys think.

Yeah.

Gravana's is made of fiberglass, which is cheaper than eurathane. At the same time, its tons easier to break...

According to Extreme Dimensions website: "All Drifter Series aerodynamics are made from the highest quality 5 oz fiberglass composites..."

They're using old pictures of my car on that site, but I have a urethane kit. I'm pretty sure the urethane kits look a little different than the fiberglass kits. Gravana is using a urethane kit in their photo as well.. Just an FYI.. you might want to see if they can send you actual product photos before you decide to purchase.

I thought I heard somewhere that the urethane 03+ drift kit (which is what I have) may be in production again though, but from a different manufacturer than Versus. I would check with Jason at A+ Performance to see what kind of pricing he can offer. He can probably get you a urethane kit (if it really exists) or a decent price on a fiberglass kit if thats what you want. www.aplusperformance.com

Go with urethane... I love my drift front.. hit a tire retread the other day going 80+ right in the center of the bumper and luckily it's urethane, just chipped the paint! FG would have shattered!

yea urethane is very flexable but if you live where it can get cold outside, the bumper will crack and even shatter if you hit something. i have 2 streetfire fronts in my basment that had that happen to them.

its drift not drifter. drifter was just used so companies could make knock off kits just like companies reproduce the bomex kit but call it the bmx kit.
