After emailing Ed at Ronaele, he told me the kit for the GT is $4600 and the V6 kit is $3800. The full GT kit includes:
Custom Hood
Custom Front cover
Custom Bottom skirts
Custom quarter window covers
Custom quarter lower sides
Custom Trunk lid Molded three piece
Custom Bumper
Front Fog light Hologen
Front mini light white parking
Rear mini light back up
Sticker kit

I'm not sure what is or is not included in the V6 kit but I have emailed him back asking if there will be a dual side exhaust kit available for the V6 as well. Although the kit looks rreeaallllyy sweet, that seriously steep considering you can get a full street scene kit for below $900...5X less than Ronaele :notnice:

 

I know Blow-By Racing's Kit, which is made by Kaenen Products (same kit that Ronaele is using) is only going to be $2800

LOL, maybe Chris should jack up the price too... NO, NOT SO MUCH.

 

Does anyone know if parts will be available separately from either vendor, such as just the hood, front bumper and scoops, in case someone doesn't want the side exhaust or their ducktail?

 

You guys know the side exhaust is fake, right? You would have to cut through the unibody to get the exhaust to exit there. Not to mention it isn't on their list of included items.

I wonder if they will brake it up and sell the pieces, as that might be a more ecomonical way to go.

 

the only problem is the business side of that idea sure you could jack up the price of individual items but this will lead customers to asume it isnt selling well meaning it isnt a good kit i dunno bout u but id want it to look like they are flying off the racks not like they were hard to sell... just my opinion i dot have to much business experience im only thirteen

 

I'm pretty sure Chris at Blow-By was saying that they are selling individual items... also Blow-By will have a totally different ducktail spoiler. Ronaele used xenon's.

as for the side skirts, they fit in the factory location using factory hardware, so you don't even need to get them if you don't want to, you can either leave the stock on three or if you like someone elses, you can mix them up. might look pretty cool

 

Ed says the side exhaust will be available in around 60 days...I am by no means holding my breath but I would at least like to have some information by that time.

 

Thanks Johnny, I'm looking forward to seeing your car. I don't like the ducktail of the Roneale kit, and that's a big factor for me, since I'm after as authentic of a look as possible, and their ducktail isn't even close. The sideskirts are a definite no, unless they are made functional and the outcome is good. Depending on how low the new front bumper is, some type of lowered skirt might be necessary, similar to the car from Vantage. I guess it's a waiting game to see what hits the market in the end....after all, I don't even have a '05 yet! Hahaha...but I'll be building one soon enough and regardless of others opinions, an Eleanor kit is the main reason I'd buy the car to start with. After considering building my '69 into a Pro-Touring car, it's just not worth it. It's a lot more sensible to make the '05 look/sound like a 60's musclecar than the other way around...trust me.

 

John,

Chris told me that the picture in the email he sent out yesterday announcing the kit was actually a shot of your car.

Honestly, I am attracted to your car in ways that I am not completely comfortable with.

 

she's taken...

 

Does she have a sister?

 

yes, she sure does.


But shes not quite done yet.

 

Good things come to those who wait.

 

u dirty...




lol jk

 

That pricing difference and awful Ronaele/xenon ducktail is going to pretty much shut down or put a serious hurting on Mr. ED!

 

I was told on Sunday by Ed that the ducktail they were using was Kaminari
