Installing a battle aero widebody on my 2006 Pontiac GTO!

HUGE HUGE HUGE HUGE HUGE HUGE HUGE HUGE HUGE HUGE HUGE HUGE HUGE HUGE HUGE Are this guys cahonas! Major props for tackling this project yourself. I'm not a big fan of fender flares on any vehicle, but you're right these GTOs had dated styling. On the note if anyone is interested in a 06 Revenge Ligenfelter GTO there is one in Pulaski TN at a dealership called Murrey GMC. I literally drove all the way down from KS (20 hr round trip drive) to buy it and ended up no simply because I didn't want to pull the body kit pieces off to apply new 3m tape (and some other minor paint imperfections that I didn't want to mess with).

[@spiceredgto9338]

Thank you!! Those cars are awesome and I’m glad you decided to hold out and find a better one. Good luck on your search!

@@spiceredgto9338 I've already got a red 65 GTO and a black 06 GTO. My 06 has the sap front bumper/grills (a must I think) and a mini tub in back. I'm currently trying to find a red 06 or 05 as my next project 😁

Have you figured out what size wheels will work for these kits? (mostly interested in the offset number.) looking to buy one of their two kits but nervous about wheel fitment. was thinking a 18x10.5 with 285/35/r18's but not sure on the offset, and cant find any deep info on forums for these kits with wheel offset fitment info. and im about as dumb as a brick when it comes to wheels.

Awesome work. Don't take it the wrong way, but you ruined a really beautiful looking car. just my opinion. If it works for you then that's all that matters.

[@andrewmays1057]

Going to have to agree here. I have the same car with 44k original miles fully built (just missing boost). Even with the small tire width issue in the rear (255 max without rubbing). i would never throw a widebody on mine
