Cheap easy mods? (new to this)

New to this site and modding my car and I have a few questions. I really have no idea how to do anything in terms of modding anything for my cobalt.

How hard is it to put small logo decals on the side of your car? And where can i buy them cheaply?

What paint would I use to paint both my grill and bowties? Also, is their any prep to doing this?

Is it hard to paint brake drums?

And what colors would go nicely in terms of both paint and decals? I have an all silver 2008 cobalt sport.

Any other recommendations for me to try would be great! i really want to make my sport personal.

Yea, ive been looking at that topic for a bit. Just trying to take the bowtie off sounds a little hard. haha. I really suck at this.

Any certain type of paint?

I managed to pop the front bowtie off. I will try the back one later. What paint do I use though? And would is also work the same for the grill and brake drums?

there is a thread that tells u wat paint to use for the bowties read them. there is also a thread about painting the grille it will also tell you what paint to use. and last but not least there is a thread about painting the brake drums and in fact it will tell you what paint to use.
