That thing is far from stock. Keep going back to stock further so it'll look good.

you need stock tail lights, 2.4 rear bumper, wingless or lowrise, and single exhaust
the back end looks terrible

Things to lose...

Rain guards
Taillights
Exhaust
Spoiler
Badges
The 70s looking wheels

Then you will be slightly less ricey looking

All that and an SS front and rear bumper (with the best 2nd exhaust cut out you can do).

Then it will look sweet. Right now is a mish moshed asian LS with confused bumpers.





^Your right it use to be worse.

Please tell me you don't still have lambo doors...

The fact that someone else has them doesn't make them any less rice...

Plenty of people have had lambo doors on cars. I'm sure you weren't the first cobalt to ever put lambo doors on. It just blows my mind that 3 years ago you spent all that money on ricey doors instead of something useful... like suspension. Your car may have 258hp but I bet it still takes turns like an LS.

Anyway all this arguing is stupid. We are all just ragging on you because your car is not stock in any way. If this thread said " Back to being less chinese w/ a lip kit" then there wouldn't be so much annoyed replies.

i dont let it bother me any more. i grew out of the stage of letting words bother me. comes with age i guess.

i'm in the process of having my uncles shop fabricate some custom tips that fit in the "rectangle" openings in the rear lip.

actually, this park is in birch run. my parents live there. i live in an apartment in Virginia Beach VA area. No i havent seen a drop top SVT.

i still have them, they are in storage for the winter. I wasnt about to make a 776 mile travel from VA to MI on 20 inch rims w/ low pro's. lol i did that once and will never do it again

pictures actually do the lip kit no justice. ive seen it in person before i bought it and i liked it. looks like **** in all the pictures. the hood is coming off tuesday and going to the dealer down the street and painting it to match the car. Then the car is headed down to flint where a graphics shop is installing black rally stripes.
