Forgive my ignorance but how does a 2.2 differ from a 2.0 on the outside?

ah I see...but it's not that the bumpers sit higher but rather that it doesn't have the lower lip that's part of SS trim...

Well i like your car phil... It doesn't need an SS bumper to make it look good...

If it were mine i would add tint for sure. Maybe lower it a bit, then a nice set of wheels(which i thought you already had for some reason)i would do black wheels on your car..

Then just make it fast as hell and youll love it all over again...

Trust me if i ever do another cobalt, it will be near stock on the outside but wicked fast under the hood... Prolly will be an SS though...

OP, what color is your car?

Edit: didn't know those were your pictures.

i would get some black rims SS/SC or SS/TC rims, tint your windows, lose the projectors and get some black retrofits, throw some eyelids on the retros, lower it, and if you want to keep the stock 2.2 bumpers then get the lip kit from RK Sport. my .02

i want fogs so bad.
