Big props to gestapo007!

Well last week I went down to Kevins house... met up with some other Cobalt and G5 owners... E Factor, and Farmer...

Had an awesome time that I remember... Well Kevin did some paint work to my car...

I like alot of people here decided to spray bomb my bumper and grill for the "EVO" mod... well I apparently didn't prep well enough and it all chipped off and looked like complete ****.

Well here are some pics of the finished products...

Calipers (front and rears) were painted with VHT Gloss Red Ceramic Caliper paint, and Cleared with a Clear with Pearl in them.

Turned out great....



And with the Brembo decal reinstalled....




Finished product....

I'll get some of the front bumper later it's raining outside.... A G A I N
Front bumper was done with a base coat clear coat both with some Pearl in them for something a little different.

Bow tie was painted the same... This will give a preview of the color....







Don't mind me... Little ass Kevin messed with my seat and my hair was fucked up just because well I had a GREAT NIGHT! LOLz

so basically im the man and you are now a baller?

painting over rattle can SUCKS. kept wrinkling the paint and was a nightmare to try to remove it. Gave me some problems. Calipers were easy, front mesh grill was easy. Calipers were done with VHT high temp red, and then i mixed clear with a bit of powdered silver pearl in it and shot them with like 2 coats. Bowtie and evo mod have the same paint style as the hood roof and trunk on my car

I was originally gonna do Gold but since it's done I am VERY glad I went this color....

it's all choice... I started with a red/white/black theme so decided to keep that going...

Now I am just toying with P/C'ing the wheels black too
