In short, unless you live in Australia, they really just don't exist. In long, many people have made other body kits fit, and made them look great! Welcome to the boards!

thanks everyone...

well since there's no body kits, would you happen to know which kits have been made to fit it? and maybe which would be the best to go with?

thanks again =]

PM me and I will tell you about how I made a set of neon stock bumpers fit. There are pics in the thread titled universal body kits in the asthetics section. Some also say that cavalier kits work, I do not know that one.

After installing the first gen neon bumper on my car, just the stock bumper, it sits lower on the aspire than the neon, because the fender flat spot is lower on the aspire, so I doubt that a really low neon body kit would be good unless you don't have pot holes around where you live. if you get the bumper with fog lights on it for the front it looks really nice and looks pretty aggressive.

someone on here had actually done that with a stock front bumper, and they said that the sides weren't quite long enough.

TTT I had to trim two little square holes in the "dips" of the front bumper and then it went right in, it fits a little tight, and I also had to screw some self taps through the fender and bumper to get the sides to stay up, but you can't see them at all. I want to nut and bolt them with washers eventually, because I am afraid that they might pull through the thin metal. it was actually easier than I had thought. I love the way it looks, especially the black on blue.

What about the rear fender and side-skirts?

I'm getting ready to repaint my Aspire and figured that I might as well add a kit and have it done all at once--then, it will match the interior

I think the side skirts will need shortening, but that's the general consensus, yes.

Generally I see bodykits as pure blasphemy towards the Aspire-gods but obviously I'm in the minority here, LOL

i've got one being semi'custom fabricated, but if you really wanna have a slash at this, read ratcrib's thread about his slightly modded front end in vids n pics. Or Tehanomally was renowned for this stuff.
