It also won't go with the body style of a cobalt. It's like seeing a Cobalt with one of the knock of Skyline bumpers.

I will have pics later. Yeah, there were a lot of clips and screws. I just figured I would get the best end result taking the bumper off. It's not as much tape as it looks: I bought the 2 inch painters tape so it's wide.I would rather spend extra time with the tape than get a mist of over spray on it. Looks good though.

Gonna try this with my aftermarket bumper. I think it would work, plus my car is what GM calls "Metallic Silver" but everyone else says it's metallic blue. Color code is 46U....go figure lol
