elite tuners canada viniati body kit

At this years auto show in Canada Elite Tuners Released their version of the Chevy Cruze!
We were all excited to check out what they had accomplished. Along with them at the show they has a beautiful Corvette that they were displaying. When we arrived we weren’t too sure what to expect although we know the quality of the builds they are capable of, we could not help but imagine a crazy set up with plenty of big bumper action and a thunderous wing. However when we arrived we were blown away, the car had been painted a two tone that was orange and black along with a special Viniati body kit.

This build was a site to behold! See our picture above. It will be interesting to see how well the Chevrolet Cruze does in the USA but one thing we do know is that this one was built to impress!

Does aftermarket an hood need hood pins?

admin — Mon, 20 Sep 2010 22:16:35 +0000

This question comes up so much these days, the question is does an aftermarket hood need hood pins? Unfortunately this question is not so easy to answer, some people drive their cars fast and some people drive them the speed limit. Depending on the style of driver that you are and how you are driving your car you may want to consider grabbing a set. Several factors go into the decision-making process first and foremost where did you buy your hood , what is the warranty, is this some eBay hood or a brand name. I can tell you that if you bought it and it was very cheap you will need hood pins. nine times out of 10 those are the type of car hoods that fly up and break your windshield. If you’re saving that much money on your automotive good you might as well spend the additional 20 bucks and make sure it doesn’t kill you on the road. I have had it happened to me before driving down the freeway at about 65 mph and my car as it flew up broke my windshield and I was driving down the street like Ace Ventura with my head out of the window.
Needless to say it was not a fun ride and I stammered to find a way to explain the damage. $20 would’ve been a lot better than a $500 deductible which was pretty much twice as much that I pay for the hood alone. on the other hand there are several companies that do make high quality hoods. Trufiber, carbon by design all sold at at highly competitive prices are a whole lot better.
As long as you are buying a quality fitted that has some sort of warranty on the closes and opens properly you should be fine. The experts will always tell you to purchase Hood Pins if you are going to replace your stock hood. However if you purchase a quality product you should be able to get around town and up and down the freeway without it flying off. If you intend to go to the track then you need hood pins. If you intend to go cheap on your purchase then you will need hood pins!

Tasteful Add Ons

admin — Fri, 30 Apr 2010 18:15:02 +0000

In a world where budgeting is the main factor in dressing up a car truck or SUV we need to be mindful about how we dress up our vehicles using cheaper techniques. We all want our rides to have that special Spark that no other vehicle has, but for many of us our wallets are screaming to conserve which item to add to a vehicle. Exterior accessories are usually the best place to start when looking for a small and inexpensive product to add to your vehicle which may add a dime to your car. Some tasteful add-ons can include chrome overlay products, but be weary that these can look overdone if you add too many to the car. We suggest door handle covers, because they usually are the most tasteful and gives your truck or car a bit of a luxury feel without overclocking your budget. Chrome overlays usually cost within the range of $200 and below. This will not break your wallet, and could possibly have a positive effect on the resale value of your vehicle.
Our next big-ticket item would be a front lip, a front lit can add the aggression that you might be looking for in a vehicle without overdoing it with a nasty looking body kit. Many of us purchase body kits because we get into accidents, however finding aftermarket OEM replacement from bumper along with a decent front lip will do wonders for the styling appearance of your car or truck and add some value.
Hoods and its groups are also another good way to dress up your vehicle, hoods can come in carbon fiber which means that you don’t have to paint them. But we have noted that you usually will need to do a coat of clear coat for them to stay looking nice for a long period of time. A hood can roughly cost you in the range of 300 although way up to $2000. Our best recommendation for purchasing a hood is a fiberglass one. These are inexpensive and you can paint them to match the color of your car. Many decent fiberglass hoods will come with warranties and fitment guarantees. This can give you some style on dime, without you worrying about it going out of style. I know that we did not touch on it very much but good scoops are also a good way to add to the vehicle. They usually are very inexpensive and easy to install.
Headlights and tail light add-ons are always a good way to improve visibility on the road and resell value of your car. Be prepared however because you do get what you pay for in these items. I personally believe that certain taillights are not in style such as the really wild chromed out taillights. Also some of the dual halo projector headlights look really buggy looking during the day, I find that the black sets are usually the best bang for your buck.

2010-2011-2012 Chevy Camaro VIS Racing AMS Carbon Fiber Hood

admin — Wed, 31 Mar 2010 17:04:11 +0000

In our youth today we have a Chevy Camaro VIS racing AMS carbon fiber hood which will fit the 2010 through 2012 Chevy Camaro. This is a brand-new at to the market in a long time VIS has really outdone themselves using absolute carbon fiber for each product and allowing awesome looking breathing capabilities to each the. this 2010 Chevy Camaro VIS carbon fiber hood AMS style has seven vents to allow for extreme heat extraction on performance Camaros. While the look is not for everyone it does offer that beautiful sense of raw power that the Chevy Camaro has built up.

We rate this good on a scale from 1 to 10 as an eight. During our tests the hood did fit on just right leaving very few gaps that were noticeable. However the style is not for everyone but this is the way it goes with many aftermarket products. Thank you to the VIS and Viniati

Today we will be reviewing the Chevy Camaro RK sport body kit. RK Sport has a large background racing, and their new 2010 Chevy Camaro body kit is very much a part of this legacy. We show that this body kit is built to perfection. The body kit comes with a front valence lip add on, a set of side skirts both left and right, and a rear valence. This particular model will only fit the SS Camaro edition. The exhaust diffuser section is sold separately and it comes in a gelcoat which is the color black. RK Sport has outdone themselves time and time again this 2010 Camaro is no different. We have seen these kits up close and personal and believe us when we say that quality of the product is exceptional. All of RK Sport 2010 Camaro body kits are made here in the United States. The design of the body kit flows well with the car, the simple rear add-ons will give you just enough lowering on the rear bumper for an aggressive stance.

The 2010 Camaro is extremely sleek and elegant with a muster full girth in the engine bay, adding the RK Sport body kit to your Camaro will be an excellent addition.

We rate this body kit for the 2010 Chevy Camaro RK sport edition

2010 CHEVROLET CAMARO LT 3.6Liters/V6 pro-kit lower springs Reviewed

admin — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 00:24:51 +0000

Eibach has made a great set of Springs for the V6 LS and LT models. As the new models rolloff the lot the new Chevrolet 2010 Camaro shows it has everything a sports car enthusiast could want wrapped into a beautiful price range. Even if you can’t drive off the lot and an SS because it guzzles too much gas, that doesn’t mean that your second rate because the V6 model has a lot to give beyond fuel savings. We were able to tap into Eibach’s V6 Springs this November 2009 and find out a little bit more about what this kit can do for your LS or TL model.

So as with most of Eibach’s pro-kits this one is pretty standard it drops your car height from stock position down to 1 1/3″ giving your fuel saving Camaro a bit of road eating center of gravity. Better turning capabilities were noted as we didn’t feel as swayed as much as the stock Springs but I believe the best came from the way it looked. The drop of the vehicle pushing gently towards the tire gave the car a complete makeover at a fraction of the cost. Backed by the expertise of Eibach you know that you were going to get the best product on the market.

We rate these Springs 7 out of 10. Whereas they don’t give much leeway to performance they do change the overall look of your car. No loud noises and a low center force leaves us to believe that these are a commuter’s answer to a boring day at work.

Prices on this kit varies, however you can find it at most places for around $285 with an MSRP of $349
