Godly's Overhaul Thread

NO MORE PUZZLE! haha

Now that we got that out of the way lets move to what the threads about haha

Over the course from Now till Spring I am starting the overhaul on my car that i've been planning to do but since I actually had to drive the balt this winter after I cracked the head in my DD its been on hold.

Anyway heres the plan, i'm going to a white/black theme. Sounds boring I know but the way i'm doing it, it won't be as you all know haha. No that doesn't mean crazy **** lol i'm going for a nice clean look this go around. I want the car to be the eye catcher that catches the eyes of people by saying "Hey im different, but not insane" LOL

Updates will be:

18x8 MSR 045's with white lip (Should have pics up by the end of this week *not on the car though*)


Nitto NT05 Tires 235/40/18

WHITE front lip

Tow Hooks Front/Rear from powell race shop- White mounting bracket with Black toungues

Carbon Fiber Wingless Trunk

Custom Retrofitted headlights from "Streetracinazian"- Black Housing Retrofits with Summit White Projector Shrouds, 5k HIDs (Hi/Lows)

Switchbacks!

Color matched bowtie

Black Bowtie Bezel

ZZP Upper Charge Pipe

Black Dejon Intake

White valve cover

ZZP Coil Pack Cover

Color matched interior trim

White Calipers with black logos

Hawk HP+ Pads

and a possible double din but I haven't decided yet.

Anyway this is just the update for everyone, you can follow the build here or on my car domain, i'll get the link for that shortly.

AT THE END OF THIS PROCESS (AROUND MID MARCH) I WILL HAVE PLENTY OF PARTS UP FOR SALE. INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE FOLLOWING, DON'T REALLY HAVE PRICES BUT I'LL PUT ONES UP TO GIVE AN IDEA?

Victory Red Dejon SRI, has some rubs from previous owner, but works perfectly, it'll be going for about 80$ shipped?

Victory Red Dejon Upper Charge Pipes, Has a rub from when I first got the pipes they rubbed my hood a bit but they work fine, probably let em go for 160$ shipped

My White Housing R8 Headlights, 200$ shipped

That'd look interesting. I want to see pics once you paint them green.


I need to paint my calipers black. Trying to keep my car as low-key as possible so ppl won't suspect anything

White calipers? Powder coat them, don't paint them. Easier to clean. White calipers will be a bitch, but will be really interesting to see.

Everyone and their mom has painted or powercoated tc wheels. Makes every cobalt look the same IMO.
Msr are going to look good on the car, but I think with a white lip and brembos would be a White Overkill. I think white lip and bright red brembos would look nasty. Have it photoshopped

the way im doing it it should be just enough white/black. Red calipers would throw the whole thing off :s
