dkorinko Posted February 25, 2004 Report Share Posted February 25, 2004 why would u ever wanna put a body kit on a TGP???? They are to beautiful as it is! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeorge Posted February 25, 2004 Report Share Posted February 25, 2004 I agree with the TGP is Unique but to each there own, I was just thinking of getting a Lumina Razzi kit and seeing if it would fit on my STE, and if not Sell the thing or something....

Harleyman Posted February 25, 2004 Report Share Posted February 25, 2004 I checked out the Website and looked at the non-turbo Grand Prix fitted with the effects. Can you say butt-freakin' ugly??!!!! Why would anyone want to mess with the beautiful lines of the TGP? The photos make the car look like an offspring of a Grand Prix and Transformer robot. Reminds me of those gay Hondas I see driving around town with all the plastic attached to them. DON'T DO THIS TO YOUR CAR, MAN!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgpguy21 Posted February 25, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2004 i was just interested to see what it would look like since mine is broken, and i cant seem to find another one anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted March 7, 2004 Report Share Posted March 7, 2004 Well I know that the front valence ground effects on them are very rare, and they break easy. So a lot of car's have them broken/missing. Becuz of this maybe a new kit would be a lot cheaper to buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harleyman Posted March 8, 2004 Report Share Posted March 8, 2004 Sounds like a business idea for someone out there in TGP land. What about you guys is southern Cal? There are a lot of kit car manufacturers out there. It seems that one of these companies could get a good front end, make a template, and mass produce these for us TGP owners who have cracked lower valance (sp?) panels.

I am stupid enough to be that business man Sunk a ton of dough into TGP parts before they got too deleted from stock. Bought 10 of them that someday owners will be very happy they are available and not in the crusher/what GM does with discontinued parts I still need to get out of them what I put into them, or the wife will kill me, but for now this still shows a dealer stocked item, part number 12522768. tgpguy21, you live out in the country boy call a dealer and have them give you a quote, retail is still up there at $183.

Guest TurboSedan Posted March 8, 2004 Report Share Posted March 8, 2004 call a dealer and have them give you a quote, retail is still up there at $183. Jeff M wow, considering the dealer wants over 1G for the radiator, i'm surprised the valance isn't $1183! joshua Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simple aero trim over wheels is at $240 to $340, and no longer available, some stuff insane, other like the valance not too bad, other pretty decent if that's possible. Last I checked all the front and rear bumper fascia, grilled hood and all side aero is gone, time to clean the junk yards and be ready on eBay to help out, less you need it .

90TGP Posted March 8, 2004 Report Share Posted March 8, 2004 I know what you mean. JimPace Pontiac had to get a rear bumper shipped from Massachusetts for my car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GnatGoSplat Posted March 8, 2004 Report Share Posted March 8, 2004 Wow, I guess I'm lucky I got my valence when I did. It was only $120. I didn't think it would be discontinued already since it's the same one that was used on 91-93 GP's as well... although I guess those cars are really really old now too.

tgpguy21 Posted March 9, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 $180 and $120? You guys got them from the dealership for that price? Dang i was thinkin they would run like $500-$600. Ima call the dealership here tomorrow then and see what they say. I know that the other Gp's in this year range had a kit like this but none of them had the valance that hung down this low did they?

GnatGoSplat Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 Yep, $120, I can't remember if I bought it locally or from Dal Slabaugh at Vandevere. Yes, 91-93 Grand Prix's with B4U had the exact same lower valence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgpguy21 Posted March 9, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 well i called the dealership and they want like $680 for one that has to be shipped out my way. so im still thinkin about what ima do... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GnatGoSplat Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 WHOAH! Why not just order it from GM Parts Direct? I plugged it in p/n 12522768 that Jeff supplied above, and it came out $129.58 SHIPPED. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff M Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 I said the bumper/front and rear fascia and side aero was discontinued last I checked, maybe a few floating around at other dealers, but the lower valance IS still available from the part number I showed as well as Shawn said/quoted , and that price you got was NOT the price for one of these, they must have goofed and found/thought it was the entire front bumper/fascia assembly!

tgpguy21 Posted March 10, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2004 Im going to have to give them a call to see exactly what that part is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgpguy21 Posted March 10, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2004 now do you know if they still make all of those parts? I talked to the guy at the Gm dealership today and he said they would have to get it from a vintage place or something like that . If these numbers are still accurate thanks for the info everyone.

GnatGoSplat Posted March 10, 2004 Report Share Posted March 10, 2004 Just plug them into GMPartsDirect and see if anything comes up. If nothing comes up, plug it into partsvoice.com and see if there's a superceded #. If there's a superceded #, plug that into GMPD and see if anything comes up. If negative to both, then it's safe to say you can't get it anymore. If a price pulls up, you can buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff M Posted March 10, 2004 Report Share Posted March 10, 2004 tgpguy21, uhhhhh, pay attention If you are without a lower valance, then you are all set, a dealer available item, prices quoted to you, any GM dealer can get this if they make an effort. The side panels in the pic/your car should still be there just fine, as well as the nuts and bolts as those pretty much stay on after a valance is ripped off, if not then don't get high-dollar dealer fasteners, just go to a hardware for this, and make sure to get what they call Fender Washer, big wide ass bitches that will help get your new valance flat to the lower Fascia, and keep it flat over the years as it relaxes. As for the center support, something GM came up with later to help the drooping effect of the valance being smashed against a curb and held there while someone goes shopping (or whatever) or cruises at high speeds for long periods of time . Nice to add but not required to install this one part/lower valance. Hurry up and get it, my fingers are getting tired ! Jeff M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W-Body Geek Posted March 10, 2004 Report Share Posted March 10, 2004 why would u ever wanna put a body kit on a TGP???? They are to beautiful as it is!
