The lettering was not from another car. The "2.4GT" is our conversion car. Similar to Mallet but we don't put a V8 in there. The emblem was custom made for us just for our package. Its not about the emblem anyhow. The car has the power to back up the new name.

I realize it was not about the emblem...and I do appreciate your appearance package...but it is a nice decorative piece that works well with the SKY's appearance...I mentioned the 2.4 ION R/L because it looks similiar to it's 2.4 lettering....can I purchase a set for my SKY?

I'm sorry, those are not for sale. Nothing against your car. We just want our 2.4GT to be ours. Each 2.4GT is numbered and correctly spec'd. Thanks for the interest though. www.sky24gt.com

I believe that cost you 18whp. Eloy will have to dyno to make sure though. Shiny == Not fast.

Exhaust look is different and unique, Nice!!

Rims are a little plain for me, but I understand the priority of the weight, look nice though.

I do not like the front at all. Just plain black real metal mesh would look better. Do not like that wide open look on the Sky, missing something.
Is the front complete? Is that part of the GT look or just something you personally decided to do?

Interesting!

When you come to pick up your stock exhaust and brakes can you bring me a set of those badges?

The front panel is a metal mesh. What you see is our race core intercooler. It would be pointless to have it painted black. Yeah, the wheels may be plain for most folks as I have noticed most folks go for the bling chrome than performance. The 2.4GT is not for everyone. One test drive, and all opinions might change though.

The taillights are just smoked red.

You are a funny young man, I was thinking for a moment you might have snagged that from a Hip-Hop band member!
