another one of my ideas. . . . what do you think?

Ok so heres a 30 second photoshop of my ideas.

Basically carbon fiber trunk wing and side caps, with shaved trunk lights. clear centers on outers (outers become reverse lights also.
I already have a carbon fiber hood on this as well.

Something else i'm thinking is painting a thin layer of red over the carbon fiber so that its red, but you can still see the carbon through it
Maybe somebody can do a better photo shop for me? (that would be awesome!!) lol i did this in ms paint.

I think deleting the reverse lights would look wierd. also that black lip on your bumper should be CF to match the trunk and wing if you plan on doing that.

got pics of yours JR?

nope, best bet is to contact seiboncarbon.com or visracing.com and see if they can make it for you, probably VIS more than seibon, because VIS already has a trunk for the Cobalt, but I don't know if they make/use red CF.

Either way good luck, hope I could help.

Me neither, Blue CF is nice though. Still I think Red CF will look better than regular CF with a bit of red paint on it, no offense OP.

rofl @ exige photoshopping out his license plate on the second but not the first pic. not that it matters if someone sees your plate i just think it's funny that it's still on the original pic you posted!

nah, theres a kid named john around my area and he has a red ss/sc and traded his bottom skirts all around the car to a guy with a black ss/sc...overall story looks bad in my opinion but beauty is in the eye of the beholder

really cool! looks better with the tinted tails like that, and im not one thats usually into that. The rear valence is actually being painted red (black underneath) and the side skirts will be red as well. and as far as my license plates. . . . i realized that once i uploaded it but then said **** it lol
