hey guys
I'm hell bent on a BC2 kit for my 2002 cavalier and I've seen a bunch of kits for like $400 but I'm interested in saving myself a bit of headache and going for the real thing for $800
has anyone had experience with the 400 vs the 800 versions?
also, anyone ever ordered from
AutoTruckToys?
they look legit enough to me.. just curious if anyone's ever ordered from them before
of course I'll only be getting this kit after the bash and after I pay Gravana Jim for his SW33T coilovers and turbo my car (need an intercooler to fill that awesome hole in the bumper)
hey man, most kits are going to be a pain to put on regardless of price. I say just go with the cheap kit from a legit source
we got the 00-02 bc2 both original and non original
POLYFIBER kits $375 (BMX, BC2, Blitz, Drift, KMAX) *
CRACKED DASH? CLICK HERE!!
go w/ the higher price kit. they are usually made better with more glass. cheap kits are usually flimsy and arent strong due to the lack of glass. higher priced kits are strong and durable. perfect example, i got my drift kit from a company and it wasnt bad. it was like 500 total w/ shipping. well the kit was in good condition. atleast i thought until i got my trd kit from jim. let me tell you the kit jim sent me from verses is unbelieviable next to my drift kit. the kit is very strong and thick. im able to pick up the front bumper from one of the taps that go under the rad support and theres no flex or anything in the kit. its a very strong kit. so i say go w/ the 800 dollar kit. also fitment should be better w/ the more expensive kit. it wont be perfect but it should be better. over time glass warps and distorts

I hope you know that the BC2 kit isnt even made for 00+ cavs. 95-99 only. Same with the XGT kit that I got but trimming the FB was no big deal.
And about ordering a more expensive kit.....more expensive isnt always the way to go. I paid $800 for my genuine Xtreme GT kit from Extreme Dimensions and it was really thin, and the rear was a pain to get on right. But it is a very strong kit.
Anyways, just go with a company that is well known on jbo and u shoud be fine.
thx,
Michael

lol in every BC2 thread I searched last night someone said that.
Yes, they do make it for the 00-02. Have you bothered looking lately?
I have the Wayson rear, which is exactly the same as the BC2, just made by someone else.
It's in my opinion, exactly like the BC2, and fitment was a peice of cake. BTW, it's one of the 400.00 ones.

Why don't you get an actually genuine kit, instead of some knock-off of a respectable company like Buddy Club. If thats what you like, then go for it. But I am tired of seeing all of these knock off kits like the bc2, blitz, combat, etc... There are actual kits that are originally designed on our cars. I cant see why any one would take a design that was originally designed for a civic, or a supra, and put it on another car. And in most cases, the outcome is downright hideous. So if I were you, Id get an actual genuine kit, instead of taking some other cars body pieces, and fitting them to your car, because basically, that is what your doing.
I notice a lot of people on here bitching and clowning on hondas all the time for stupid things those people do to their cars, but I dont see too much difference here from most of you that do all of that talking. So my question is this- If the majority of j-body owners hate on hondas, then why do most of you do the same things as them?
So to all, say what you will, I dont care. I know this was not positive in the least, but I had to get it out, because I feel strongly about this subject, and Im tired of seeing people turning their cars into what many of you call "rice".

um...
what the
HELL are you talking about?
this kit is made for 00-02 cavs...
you're whole little rant there... was totally uninstigated... the word honda hasn't even been brought up in this post until you said it
?
here's my reasoning behind my choice:
Please ignore the HIDEOUS WING in these photos
as you can see, I'm looking for a body kit to compliment the natural lines of the car, not change them. The buddy club2 is a smooth, non obtrusive design that makes the car look more aggresive without looking rediculous and without trying to force the natural tear drop shape of the car into something else. It flows very well from front to rear.
I also like the front bumper because it will provide ample air flow for not only the radiator, but the soon to be installed bar & plate front mount intercooler. The sides are smooth, but not boring (the vent near the rear). Bomex sides would interrupt the nice flow of this kit (was originially going to mix n match). The rear continues the smooth feel, complimenting the silhouette of the car from the side without having the shelf look of the drift kit or bomex kits.
I don't find the BC2 kit ricey at all... unlike this kit for instance:
this kit totally disrupts the lines of the car in an effort to make it look like something completely different. I can understand this kit being considered "rice" (no offense to anyone who has it on their cars), but the BC2 kit is a very nice, mild kit to make the car look damn sexy but not obnoxious.
Oh sorry, I wasnt aware that the real ] Buddy Club made a kit for cavaliers. Im sorry, I just cant find reason to support any manufacturer that steals the name of a respectable racing company like Buddy Club. What I meant when I mentioned Hondas, was that I find it kind of funny that people on here get knock off kits, just like Honda owners, yet still talk all this crap about them. Wether you own a Civic, Cavalier, or an Eclipse, it still is lame in my opinion to buy a knock off kit.
And as for not being instigated, oh yes it has. Ive been on this forum plenty of times, and kept my opinion to myself for a while, but I just can stand to see this "rice" anymore. Its probably because I dont hate on cars because of where theyre from, but rather the mods that are done to them.
Sure, I'll admit, the BC2 is a clean kit. So is the SF1(i think thats what its called). But the fact is, these kits are copycats of aero kits that were designed mainly in japan, by real tuning shops, for completely different cars. Thats what I have a problem with. So wether it be the look, or the name, its still a fake.

ok thats fine, but dont get on your soap box in my post you whore
make your own thread if you have a problem with other people's opinions.
At no point in this thread did anyone talk @!#$ about honda, so STFU

since you didn't understand the first time, maybe this will get through your thick skull...
quote ONE POST in THIS THREAD that says ANYTHING ABOUT HONDA , then when you can't find anything STFU
NOBODY said anything about freakin HONDA
You got a problem with other people talking S#!+ about honda, take it up with them not in a thread that HAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH WHAT YOUR POSTING ABOUT
do you understand now? you're bitching about something and arguing about something that
NOBODY BUT YOURSELF brought up. so get off of your soap box and
STFU
now that this thread has become COMPLETELY USELESS the mods should delete this
garbage
no BC2 kit for 00-02??? do i not exist anymore?
mine is an original, payed almost 800 for it and it came flawless and fits like a glove.

Mister money pants, not all of us have the cash to spend on a "real" kit. In my opinion, you are a @!#$ sucker for paying that much money when you can get the exact same thing cheaper. Losers like you are what keeps a lot of companies afloat.

Ok, you're 19 years old, and you obviously don't know @!#$ about mods......
you have an RK upper mount, and "New BFG tires". Everyone has their own style and taste, so STFU.

Again, you don't know @!#$, so STFU.
Did I forget to remind you to
STFU
What the @!#$ does being 19 have to do with anything, you @!#$ cock sucker!? Obviously, you bunch of dumb @!#$ red necks cant seem to be able to see what Im pissed off about, so Ill do this ONE more time, then Im outta this @!#$ place. There is no REAL Buddy Club kit for cavaliers. Buddy Club is a tuning company in Japan that doesnt make @!#$ for our cars. Having a Buddy Club2 kit or whatever is @!#$ lame, and a show of disrespect for a company that does make actually functional products. If the real Buddy Club made a kit for cavys, and I could get it for 500 bucks, you bet your ass Id get it. But paying 500 dollars for something that is a @!#$ rip off of another companys design, is idiotic.
If you dumb @!#$s can actually comprehend anything, maybe youll realize, I didnt come on here to defend Hondas. What I came on here to say is that, I think its funny that people talk @!#$ about hondas, yet still do the same thing to their cars. I wasnt defending Hondas or anything. Maybe now you illiterate red necks get it now, but probably not. Go kill yourselves you bunch of midwestern faggots.

Oooh. I think I got an E-Black Eye on that one. Possibly even an E-Bloody Nose.

spoken like someone with a SLOW ASS CAR. I have a great respect for most forms of racing, and drag racing is one because you mess up, YOU LOSE. No next lap, no next turn... you have to be PERFECT everytime or you pack up and go home.
your car is slow therefore your opinion doesn't matter. my cav would toast yours, and my 88 supra turbo would kill you in the twistys AND in the straights STOCK
shove that up your japanese-purist 'touge' ass

I don't believe in retro-fitting taillights or headlights or any of that crap THATS disrespectful...but as far as body kits are concerned, there's only good lookin and bad looking.
BC2 looks good on the cavalier, I'm not gonna cry myself to sleep at night because it wasn't made by
THE HYPER SUPER UBER REAL BUDDY CLUB COMPANY
if that makes me a "ricer" in your eyes, I could care less because I know where the real fundamentals lye, not this Fast and Furious Need for Speed Underground street cred
where your stuff is only cool if its made by a certain company, and dramatically overpriced.
