If you are still wondering about that body kit on the green Kalos: It's just a front lip, rear skirt, and side skirts. here is the link to the site that sells it. The site is in German and English. http://www.cse-essen.de/english/frames.html
The reason I'm on the Aveo forum is because I have a European Lacetti (Reno). They have the same little 1.6 as the Aveo in the states. Looking for engine parts, like intakes, turbo kits, and such

Lol the best thing I could suggest for you, and I know you'll agree with me...get more power, and the best way to do that is do what i did with my aveo, swap out the 1.6 or 1.8 litre 4 cyl for the chevy cobalt ss 2.0 supercharged 4 cyl, it works and its the peppyest engine you'll find for the car, and, its lighter then anything you can find aftermarket wise. I had to swap engines because I found out that barely anyone makes parts for the car, and, if they do, they're really not worth anything because theres just soo little you can do to the engine. Right now the things i have done to my aveo is the engine swap, a widebody kit, 19 inch white motegi 5 spoke rims, custom cat-back magnaflow exhaust kit, and a custom 1600 watt stereo system, and im soon to get an in dash dvd player and some white strobing underbody and grill neons.

I think I recall you getting a pretty hard time on the Aveo forums about this swap - ever get any pictures?

I just bought a 2007 Aveo, I cant find anything for it as far as to modify it. Probably because its too new. Im looking for a body kit and some engine upgrades. If anyone knows about any or if anyone has done upgrades to there Aveo, let me know how it turned out. Thanks

Did you get the hatchback or the sedan. There are body kits for the hatcback on EBay and someone on here has bought it and I think is putting it on his Aveo now. If it is the sedan,it is a brand new body. You probably won't find any body kits. But there is a wing for the trunk on EBay for it. For the engine,some people on here SAY they have found some turbo or supercharger available for it. I so far have only managed to put in Bosch Plus 4 Sparkplugs for a bit more power and better mileage,and using Synthetic oil helps to. The engine is still the same no matter what you bought. So you can do those upgrades, and also replacing the lightbulbs in the headlights with Sylvania Silverstars will give you a lot more light and is super easy to replace, I have done that to,the other things depend on if you got a new sedan or the hatchback.

Yeah I bought the sedan, i figured there werent many things out for it, yet, hopefully soon. Yeah ive been reading this forum and thats what ive been hearing about the spark plugs and the oil. When i buy them, does Aveo take a certain Bosch, or is it just a 1.6 liter, platinum spark plug? Thanks for the help, do you have a sedan?

I took the Aveo LS letters of the back and the two GM emblems on the side off as well. All there was, were adhesive residue, after about 15 minutes of scrubbing with decal remover it came off. Although I didn't take the bow tie off yet because I dont know if the rear bow tie is screwed in or just has adhesive I'm going to do it tonite and I will let you know
