the type j's don't look so bad on there.... the front bumper, wing, and color, however, are another story entirely....

That kit was one of the first for the 99-05 GA's... It actually looked pretty good on a slammed car, but since there isn't much out there for them (I think even now there's only about 4-5 types, and they're all pretty much gaudy except the SC/T kit from PFYC.com) it actually was one of a couple that looked good. the Wing that's on there isn't part of that kit, and neither is the hood.

Plus, that colour doesn't look quite right on the GA's... That kit pops with a white, silver or charcoal metallic coloured paint job.

If that were my GA:
- Paint to charcoal metallic,
- keep the front and rear bumper, and use the side skirts that come with the kit,
- no wing, ditch the banner and vent visors, and the NASTY chrome trim strips (or at least paint them, because dear lord they were ugly)
- Stock style CF hood, paint the outside 1.5" in flat black, paint the whole thing in low gloss clear coat
- 35% tint, ditch the seats for 4 racing style (tenzo/Summit racing, whatever), and put a good steering wheel in
- 18-19" rims

And... go to work on the engine, because it's likely got an LD9/5spd in there. (I'm guessing, because the GA SEs had the choice of either 2.4TC man/auto, or 3.4 auto... either way, I'm assuming its a pre-ecotec because they had the Alero mirrors... sadly)

It has the potential to be a decent cruiser, and with an SC kit it might be even better...

Especially if they stumped the tree in the corner

The Toyota face looks pretty awesome, but I never liked the RKSport kit, never grabbed me.

AED (Thanks, I forgot the name of the company ) made a great kit, but I think it's been splashed. Either way, it's a low production kit.

**Edit**
Now that I look, they have a kit for the Alero... I may look at that sometime
