Well considering that isnt even a normal GTO, i'm going to say no, you wont see anything even remotely that nice. The fact is, that car was custom built from the ground up by a GM design team. The body is completely different than a stock GTO. I'm sure it probably uses the stock roof but thats about it. :frankie:

I don't think you can say it was built from the ground up. One of the engineers bought a VIN'd GTO and had the design team build it with him. I'm sure other than the roof, every body panel is custom - but it's still build on a GTO chassis. Apparently it's a tuning nightmare w/ the double throttle bodies as well...
Being as that the only difference between the GTO and the Monaro body panel-wise is the front fascia and holes in the decklid, I'm sure that the body kits will work.

Well, the BODY was built from the ground up... The car itself IS a normal GTO under that sexy skin.
If Pontiac ever offered those body parts to 'build your own' just like it, i'd be all over that like stickers on a ricers carbon fiber hood. :hysterical:

Go to CAPA.com.au or JHP.com.au for some body kits. The one's in the states still have some wrinkles to iron out before any of them will come close to the quality of the Aussie kits. I know AP, RKsport, and a few others are producing 'glass' kits.
