Seems like there is always a general interest in finding these kits. Thought I could give some lucky person a chance to get one. Sorry if I went against forum rules.

I just bought it! I'm driving my truck down to get it this weekend!
(In my dreams) Oh well, better buy a lotto ticket on the way home tonight. Might get lucky! BUT if I did win I might as well buy the real thing!

This is only about an hour from where I live (the land of SurfnSun). I have always loved the Aerobody and would love to have one on my car one day.

BAM,

thanks for posting this. I am very interested in buying this kit!

I see that the side gills and front emblem is missing.

Are those pieces available to buy anywhere else?

What about the moulding? The callaway cars has the thin 84-90 style moulding. Is that typically included with the kit or Does that have to be modded as well?

good point, I had been looking closely at some other Callaway photos deciding that same thing. I suppose it would be easy to modify since you would only be doing the door and rear 1/4 moldings.

poseurism ? Who cares. I am starting to be tired of seeing every C4 look like mine. I am not changing the looks to some cheap *** looking kit (or Greenwood)I will get it for the Greenwood comment. But I have always thought that this kit is classy and compliments the C4 lines. Most members on this forum take offense when we change the looks of our rides. And most change the looks of the car with the exhaust (my corsas do) But this is what make all of us unique. Ever hear someone say that you look like the dog you own ? Why not have your car compliment you in the same way ? My 2 cents.....is over

Amen. But I have seen a few Greenwoods that look good. Personally I would love to buy this kit for my car but my time might be limited in this car if I buy my friends Hennessey Viper. I posted this auction so somebody besides me buys it.

I don't think it would be at all.

99.9% of the greenwood kits you see don't have the greenwood motor that the kits were designed for.

most of the C5R kitted C5s out there are not equipped with C5R 427s.

The callaway aero is just what it is..."callaway aero kit".
