Does anyone else agree with me on this?
I'm 10,000% with you and I'll never understand why people do it but to each their own.

LOL! I like nothing on your car. I think the headlight covers are from like 10 years ago, I think they are tacky, they look cheap, and they hurt your visibility at night! I also don't like your AVS taillight covers, I also think they look cheap. I also don't like the debadging. I say keep it on! Be proud of what you drive! A Chevrolet Cobalt SS Turbocharged.

I don't understand, you "blacked out" the headlights & taillights. Why not black out the windows (tint), the rims, the sole "SS" badge on the trunk, the "SS" badges on the doors...

I just don't care for YOUR car, but it is yours. So, welcome to the site, and don't take anybody's comments personal.

dont think your gonnna find many people that agree with you anyways people want to do what they want with their cars thats whats so awesome about living in AMERICA we get to do stuff like that if you have a problem with it keep it to yourself and your crue of others who agree with you

to the OP car looks good im gonna black out everything on mine too except the headlights and tails just another reason to get pulled over in my opinion

People don't debadge their cars because they aren't proud of what they are driving.... its the clean look and plus now that their are 2 diff cobalt ss's out taking the turbo or supercharged stamps off will make some ppl wonder what kind it is. yea i know most of us who have a cobalt can tell 50 ft away which is which but to a honda or ford owner they prob can't tell.

I like the black bowtie. Don't like the headlight and tail covers though. But I respect the theme your going for. ..And for the love of puppy kibble drop that car!! Springs are a snap to install and the sportlines only ride a tad harsher than stock.

I'm not quite as passionate about it as you are lol but to a extent I agree. I like the blacke bow-tie though. It fits the color of the car. I think on say a Victory Red Balt it would look goofy?

Good lookin car though.

Amazing, the op never asked for opinions, just wanted to show off his car. Nice looking car op and keep up the good work. Remember that if everybody on this site liked your car our cars would all look the same.

Id black out the insides of the headlights instead of using those cheesy headlight covers. It would look much cleaner especially with your taillight covers.
